Real First Person View

[late jackal]

Looks cool, but I'd get so sick from the head-bob lol

[kindred glade]

yeah i fell that xD

but for realistic scenarios it would be great i guess cause you cant bunnyhop and instantly shoot at people like before 😂

[night elm]

First thing I noticed, is when I spawn enemies down as GM, and when I return back to my person, I get the perspective of the AI

When I aim down my sights

[kindred glade]

thats good to know

will fix that

[night elm]

Ok, only thing I noticed, looks amazing

[kindred glade]

thx mate

[kindred glade]

i cant replicate it on my machine could you maybe send me a video in my dms

also controlling a ai doesnt work with either of my mods

[night elm]

Ok, will do, was testing it flying and it looks amazing as well

Ok, it’s not coming back now, but I did notice when i dude while in the helmet camera view mode, when I went back to GM I was stuck in a Soviets helmet instead of in the air like normal

[thin shore]

@kindred glade hey man when aiming down sides im on rhs test world it goes to pov a ai that they have

[bold quarry]

It's not very realistic to have movement like that. Irl, you never notice or experience that much view movement when looking around or bobbing your head. That's the limitations of fitting your view onto a monitor. Irl you have peripheral vision, and your eyeballs move independently to your head position. It's as if you superglued your eyes into place. Cool for cinematics from a go prop perspective though

[kindred glade]

controlling an ai doesnt work with it

[kindred glade]

i know but some game mechanics are exaggerating the reallife because its hard to put it on a 2d screen as you said. same with supression in some games

[thin shore]

noo noo that’s me in front

im not controlling ai

let me get a video to show u

@kindred glade

[kindred glade]

how did you spawn them?

[naive jungle]

just spawning them through gamemaster

[kindred glade]

thats weird. tried that myself and it worked fine

[naive jungle]

also i’ve noticed when you have nvgs active and the helmet cam you can see a reticle on the camera like from a svd or something

[kindred glade]

thats very weird

but my guess its something from the nvgs

[naive jungle]

maybe, i’ll try redownloading the mod see if it fixes the ai thing.

seems deleting the mod and redownloading it fixes the ai issue

[thin shore]

rhs team did

[quiet flint]

I download the helmet cam mod but when ingame I don’t see it in first nor third person, someone help please?

[naive jungle]

you know to activate it right?

[quiet flint]

Negative

[naive jungle]

double tap y

[quiet flint]

Ah thanks

[ebon kettle]

This. But it looks cool in video

[quiet flint]

So I’ve noticed the filter turns off when you kill someone. It was even doing it whilst the AI were killing AI (that is turning the filter off for my character when a AI was killed in which I didn’t kill..not me playing AI).

[naive jungle]

i think the nvgs had that problem back in the day too

[nova forge]

Bro this mod sick asf

[nova forge]

Ong one of the best in awhile

[night elm]

Ok, found another thing, I re ran the Tutorial, which covers every aspect of the game, and I found that on the .50 cal part where you pull up the Jeep to the firing range and you get inside you can’t aim down the sight.

[bitter locust]

Is there a way to make the head bob a little less violent?

[night elm]

Yeah, I do like the reload animation, I wonder if there’s a way to take away the idle animation where you look around and stretch

[next ermine]

I really love this mod, its perfect 👍

[wild pelican]

its a great mod for make great clips keep up the work

[cerulean fractal]

My thoughts:
Reloads and moving is great, the leaning feels really weird but okay
The head position is never aligned with the center of the screen making it very disorienting to use this mod and hip fire
Aiming transitions are rough
Free looking is slow and limited

My guess is you just attached the camera to the 3rd person head which works well in general but the 3rd person head isn’t perfectly suited for the task so some adjustment would be needed to make this fully functional

Also turret aiming is gone

[late jackal]

Would be cool with the helmet camera if, somehow, you could use the regular views of the character in-game when playing, but have clips recorded by the helmet camera

ain't no way it'd be possible probably, but would still be cool

[night elm]

Could you let people look lower in their seats?

I can’t hit the lower ramp button in the chinooks in the center console

[tough mauve]

I tried to make it seem like it was cellphone footage

Loving the mod ❤️

[quiet flint]

You def getting introuble from a mod for posting that🙏😭

[gaunt sluice]

The camera is attached to the character at an offset from the head bone. Idk what you're talking about when you say "3rd person head" as there is only one head used by the player. It's just rendered or not rendered depending on first or third person view.

[cerulean fractal]

Okay yeah, that’s my best non modder terminology guess of how you did it, I guess reforger doesn’t render fpp separately like other games

[tawdry bronze]

it could be possible to have it side by side or smth like that but i wont be back until august

[idle dirge]

@kindred glade ive had a issue where whenever i aim i go to a completely different characters camera

[kindred glade]

Dont spawn any ai or similiar

Should also only happens locally not on a server

[idle dirge]

ye i figured that out just i cant play online rn

[kindred glade]

Ah

I would be able to fix that but im not at home

For the next 2 months

[nova forge]

Wonder if a body cam is in the works

[tawdry bronze]

i tried body cam before my helmet camera but it didnt work because the arms were always in the way

idk if there is a way to stop that from happening

[nova forge]

Ah, yeah I don't think there would be away to fix other then moving the camera to a position where it wouldn't which may be difficult as each gun and each position wouldn't allow something as smooth as a head cam

[tawdry bronze]

yep

thats why i decided to make the helmet cam instead of body. my local project is still named bodycam

[idle dirge]

For the first part it looked really real
