+ Added new Wheel-Damage script which causes wheels to fly off if the car is hit hard. + Added newer version of the police siren LVC menu. + Changed a bunch of keybinds in order to facilitate FivePD. + Readded the accidentally removed emote menu and removed NoDriveBy. + Updated the server theme alittle away from just RP. + Updated to server artifacts version to 6372
Enhanced Camera
Overview of the menu
This menu recreates vehicle camera from scratch and introduces a number of customizable parameters for user to tune. On top of that there is a drone camera with a few modes to simulate drone flight.
Main features of this menu:
- Lead camera - main camera, rotates around car dependant on angular velocity of the vehicle
- Chase camera - focuses on closest vehicle and points towards it
- Drone camera - simulates drone physics, allows choice between different modes (race, zero-G, spectator, homing)
- Customizable parameters - FOV, XYZ position offsets, interpolation values and more
- Saving/loading - save and load camera parameters or choose from default presets
Installation
Go to releases and download latest zipped release. Unzip and place enhancedcamera folder inside your server's resources folder, then edit your server.cfg to include line start enhancedcamera.
Parameters overview
It's best to just experiment with parameters to see how they affect camera handling (for lead/chase camera you can start by spawning a preset from submenu).
Lead and chase camera parameters:
- Lock position offset - determines whether camera changes position compared to vehicle (or just rotates)
- Linear position offset - experimental feature, camera changes position along the line drawn behind vehicle instead of doing circular motion around the car
- Lock rotation to camera plane - changes the way that camera rotates around car (mostly visible on uneven ground)
- Modifier - this modifier * angular velocity = target rotation. Higher values make camera move further from lock. (-1,1)
- Yaw interpolation - lower values - smoother movement along yaw axis (0,1)
- Roll interpolation - lower values - smoother movement along roll axis (0,1)
- Pitch interpolation - lower values - smoother movement along pitch axis (0,1)
- Camera offset - offsets chase camera target towards its velocity vector. (0,5)
- Position interpolation - lower values - smoother movement, higher delay. (0,1)
- FOV - changes field of view, may affect performance with higher values (20,120)
- X/Y/Z Offset - static position offset in XYZ direction
- Max angle to lock - for chase camera only, max angle from velocity vector to keep the lock on, if angle exceeds this limit, camera switches back to normal. (25,360)
