Description
Utility to record/edit intro camera paths and vehicle paths.

map mapname v2cam

chat !help for HTML help doc. (docs need work)

*Note, if you use GUIStudioMDL, the compiled models will be put under left4dead2, NOT, left4dead2_beta, which is where they need to be, so you'll have to move them.
2013.09.23
Added chat commands.
!undo - (one level undo. When you hit play, path is cloned. After your playback, if you do not like changes, chat !undo
!dumpcam name - This dumps the camera to a script name.nut under the model directory. It can be copied to scripts/vscripts and executed to restore the camera (for multisession editing)
!pspeed speed This modifies player speed via adrenaline

!save now creates a generated.nut file, which can be copied to scripts/vscripts and executed to restore the camera for further editing.


2013.09.21
Added chat commands for !play, !record,!stop, added workaround for bug when comparing stringified VSLib angles that could cause errors on !save

!cameraon - enable camera in playback.
!gravity float - Set's the player's gravity as impulse. (Using ladders undo this)

Not sure if this is broken now, but whenever I've typed !save, it doesn't make a .qc, vmf or vmx file at all, and also dumps this into the console. To me its just jargon but I hope it helps with my problem (Had to post two comments because character limit)
