FCC - Freelook Commanding Camera v2.0

Recommended Posts

UPDATE: A demonstration video of FCC2 will be published in a few hours, I need some sleep now :D

Here's the one from FCC1.1 for people who didn't know of the last version:

Freelook Commanding Camera v2.0

I'm proud to present to you my newest and improved version of FCC.

It should now be working in single- and multiplayer (Warfare). In multiplayer I couldn't really test it though.

Information:

The freelook commanding camera is supposed to make it easier for you to command your AI units/groups.

FCC2 can be used by high command leaders in single- and multiplayer as well as squad leaders in singleplayer.

You can activate the mod by selecting "Activate FCC2" from the action menu in-game.

It's ideal for Warfare missions as it let's you spectate what your groups are doing in the distance.

Controls (after activation):

From in-game:

END: Enter camera

From in-camera:

HOME: Teleport camera back to player

INSERT: Teleport camera to leader of first selected high command group (lowest group number)

Right Mouse Click: Exit camera

M: Map

N: Night vision

From both:

DEL: Switch player to leader of first selected high command group (lowest group number)

- only possible in singleplayer

From map:

ALT+Left Mouse Click: Teleport camera to mouse destination

Navigational controls (translation & rotation) for the camera can be set in the game controls under Bulldozer.

Known issues:

- Since one of the more recent patches the target reticule you see inside FCC doesn't work anymore to select

the destination for your troops. (Help please! FIX needed badly!)

- Before switching your player to a different group (DEL-Key) make sure you are able to go back to your old

group later. In some missions your high command leader might not be within a group and therefore you won't be

able to switch back to him if you switch to a different group.

- In Warfare mode you have to re-activate FCC2 after each visit to the construction menu.

- If you lose commander status in Warfare mode while being inside freelook camera mode you will retain it until

you exit it yourself. Actual high command control will not be retained though.

I hope you'll like it!

Constructive criticism is welcome as well as any hints on how to solve the problems I've noted at the bottom.

Greetings,

MrX

Old thread with v1.0.

I find this a little interesting.

As a lazy person though I think you should add a mission that showcase what you want it to.

Is it possible to force a optics view on the camera?

If so it might solve your mid screen icon problem...

Man, nice thing. But I have an question, is there a way at least to disable the croshair which apears while looking around with the cam? I want to use it for making some videos, but this is not so nice to have this fet-white thing in the middle of the screen :D

Thanks for this awesome addon mate!
