#Helmet Camera View
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
Are you able to watch other players camera views? No button to toggle between them? Would help commanders with situational awareness, CTAB had something very similar in Arma 3
@copper crag great mod tested it out on the xbox and it works but one thing i notice is when you zoom in it goes to almost passed the gun was this intentional?
ye
Is anyone else just not seeing this on the workshop?
I can’t see it
Thank you, you’re a lifesaver
Thank you!!
btw currently if you go out of the view the wrong hdr is being loaded
will be fixed in a bit
your not able to switch between everyones camera? What a disgrace
I thought this mod was something along the lines of the helmet cams from A3, where it provides an overlay that you can use to see the helmet cameras of your teammates
i will add that in a bit
Sick!!
but if i dont add it today you unfortunately have to wait about 6 weeks until im back
Even if we have to wait, the mod is still gonna be sexy.
This is insane I’ve been waiting for this mod for quite a bit
wat does it do, any screenshots?
oh I get it now and this is very poggers, does it alter sounds as well? it could apply some of those dsp filters to make the sound lower quality
didnt thought of that thats a very nice idea
yeah there's a few *pass filters and compressors etc, can't make sounds clip though
thats unfortunate
but I think it's possible to make it sound like it was coming from a walmart bluetooth speaker
we unfortunately dont have walmart over here xD
substitute with any local cheap brand
Ahhhhhhh there it is, beautiful
now you can go into ads as normal
still has the camera look. i could deactivate it but i kinda like it
but if enough people would like me to remove it i will
I’ll check it out tonight
Honestly dude keep it, it looks good that way
Anyone know the code to get this on a server?
so guid would be 5DC8B359DADC3AD4
Thank you
did you get it to work on your server?
It’s not my server, I was trying to find the code for my friend. I can reply to you once he tries it if you’d like me to
i have it on my server and it works but i have one small bug im currrently fixing after i finished my ice
👌
should be fixed now
alrighty thanks
Yo also would it be possible to raise the cam slightly above or something so you’re not aiming directly down irons with the cam on? Kinda feels weird to be able to do that.
probably but im not at home from now for 7 weeks so i wont be able to change stuff
How do u do the Helmet Cam on PC?
Hold J
Yeah I got I thanks lol
Are you able to use this mod without the true first person view @copper crag
is there any known mods that conflict with this?
Yeah
So there is one Helmet view then the fpv and then both of them together
But you cant Download both of them and play with that. For that you need the third mod because elsewise they would Interfere with eachother
Umm 😅
Mhm.
Was playing some game master, got killed and could see the helmet cam of the guy that killed me. 🤷♂️
Would be a cool feature but not a cool bug
@quartz pilot. When killing entities the screen overlay disappears
he’s gone for the next 6 weeks
Ok
A new perspective 1 2 and 3
going to fix that when im back
This is pretty cool. Would be even better if command could watch these feeds instead of player
working on that when im back
wont look nice (will load high lods) neither will be that performant
if you slap the feed into a smaller on-screen widget then you could use lower 3d resolution in the pip renderer
@waxen jackal show them the Drone with camera pip you did. Worked really well imo.
ok thats true but it will still load a low lod wont it?
it will, so you may run into memory budget issues, but most of the stuff you will be displaying will already be loaded into memory, and rendering them may not be expensive when the resolution scale and fps are much lower
lower fps and resolution scale may also contribute to the realism of the effect
if you want to get creative, you could use an android tablet 3d model and project the camera into its screen while the character holds it like a map
exhibit A
I know it's a wip but I love how goofy it looks when it takes off. 😭
there were levels of goofiness in development of this you wouldnt believe existed
had the same with my v1. tried to write everything on my own and it ended up kinda working. because as soon as it should go down it spiraled up into the air xD
i mean i could do that when im back. its just a rendertarget texture isnt it?
also on this small screen i could probably just get away with the lowest res and 24 fps or less even
yes
@copper crag
Hey this is a comment from my youtube about the a problem with the mod. I told him I'd bring it up to the mod dev.
I think this was also discussed above but it has to Do with a small error i have. It wont be on any servers because when you play locally Ur the server.
And being the server yourseöf creates the issue
OK sweet
most of the bugs regarding deactivating of the fx effects should be fixed
if there are anymore bugs i can fix tthem today till tomorrow morning
So now i made two mods for the helmet cam. one with normal ads and one cinematic one which uses the helmet cam in ads
for anyone interested i fixed the mod for the current arma version. but only this mod(for now)
