xmurderx 0 Posted January 24, 2003 what I would really love is to have a wartime photographer. Maybe a civilian with a camera model, holding it kinda like the special ops unit holds the laser targeting system. He would just be there for show, and he could just target the enemy to make it look like he was recording them. and when he targeted them he would bring the camera to his eye and a red dot would start flashing on the camera. and maybe he could have just a pistol for self defense. how cool, right? just a request/suggestion to you talented addon makers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cam0flage 0 Posted January 24, 2003 I want to have a mad photographer with something like five cameras, like the one in Apocalypse Now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Major Fubar 0 Posted January 24, 2003 Nice idea, I think it would be cool. If you were the photographer with a shoulder mounted vidcam, it could go to the camera type view on the V-80. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miles teg 1 Posted January 24, 2003 Hold on folks... I think you all are missing the obvious. It might be possible to make a real working photographer where when you pressed the fire button it takes a screen shot and puts it into a temp directory or your C directory or something. I bet some good .cpp script writers could figure out how to do that. If they could it would be very cool I think. Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanadianTerror 0 Posted January 24, 2003 I believe that was made for Ghost Recon actually... EDIT: http://www.baconbomb.com/vympel/images/camera1.jpg ok, actually what this guy did was set up the camera to zoom in further than a sniper rifle so you could take screenshots but you'd still have to do it the old fashioned way.

lukemax 0 Posted January 24, 2003 Well there is a video camera in game and there is a trigger so you can have someone on the TV! IT can be done! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
USMC Sniper 0 Posted January 24, 2003 If anyone actually wants to make this, I'll make the camera. I would suggest a different photographer for every era; say one for a Vietnam style guy, and a modern combat photographer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thetruth 0 Posted January 24, 2003 Holy cow, what a great idea! Give them a van to cruise around in, and a chopper to follow around like lawyers chase ambulances! Wherever the action is, they just show up at random and start popping screenies! This idea has potential, IMHO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cloney 0 Posted January 24, 2003 A News van with lots of antennas and satellite dishes may look like a prime target for an enemy with any sort of heavy weapon. Anyway, I think they ride around with the troops, not in reporters vans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
