Title: a Little tool for View [4.09] [4.10]
Post by: SAS~Skipper on March 22, 2011, 10:29:47 AM

By CARSMASTER (ZapA/dispersalfield)

Present to your attention a little tool. It allows you to view and track moving and stationary objects in the game without having to install any static cameras. For example, can be traced as a moving train, car rides, sailing ship in real time in the game. I think it will be useful for the creators of missions and campaigns during the beta test, to see the routes and the correct movements. So as you can view all static objects and watch the game for their actions (unless of course they can it, for example, artillery). So as for the creators of movies opening up new possibilities for choosing the right camera angles, including the move. The mod should work in any version of IL-2.

Installation:
1. Unpack the archive in the pacu MODS.

Usage:

1. In the game the console keys SHIFT + TAB
2. Put in the console strictly observing the letter case  view
3. Hit ENTER
4. Get in the console list all the objects that you can see.
5. Consider, select the object.
6. Next, enter in the console  view 0_Chief0  and press ENTER. ( 0_Chief0  is chosen object).
7. Obtain the on-screen switches to the selected object.

ADD in .RC

@load com.maddox.il2.engine.cmd.CmdActorView NAME view \
HELP view [<name_obj>]

Search into your conf.ini file if you have this string:

[HotKey Console]
Shift Tab=Activate

If not add it , this 'll enable you to go into console screen; use when playing to use this mod!

All the best!

A si bidi!!!

Quote from: fabianfred on March 24, 2011, 03:40:44 PM

it means that after you type the relative details into the console....eg. view 5_Chief4 then press Enter to enable it...the screen will change to a view of that object.
You then simply cancel the console view by p[ressing shift/tab again and then use your mouse to zoom and pan the view from that object.
If you go to view another thing from a Static camera or plane then the view is lost and must be re-entered to see it again.

thank you fabian for explanation and sorry for the delay,,cheers

A very nice and beautiful mini-mod, thanks Skipper. One query tho', I use 409m, HSFX4.01, no Modcat or Diffm. Might this work without having to modify .rc & other .txt/.sfs etc files?
I understand .ini's somewhat, but not .sfs's, & .prs's etc.
