Wicked, your mod continues to get quite a workout on my TpF1 map. Both during normal play and when recording footage for upload. My uploads tend to use your two loco-side positions almost exclusively, though other cameras see occasional use. I alternate between this mod and its one competitor, as neither your or his loco-side cameras are ideal in every situation. Anyway, a big thumbs-up from me.

@cutting As I understand it, the only way to create the sort of camera positions you desire is to do so on a loco/train-by-loco/train basis, beyond the scope of a mod like this, which provides useful generic camera positions as alternatives to vanilla 'cab-view.' Even generic positions can sometimes go amiss (produce undesired results) with certain loco/wagon combos. I find the mod most useful, using it for train rides and while 'filming' video segments. To me, its loco-side cameras are easily preferable to vanilla 'cab-ride' view, for steam trains at least, which is all I run.

When you see in-train views in YouTube videos, it is almost certainly because those cameras are provided with the train/loco by its creator. We can, of course, create custom camera positions for individual trains/locos on our own, have we the skill. (I do not.)

Is there a internal camera view (Seats)

@AlphA you can buy a cheap keyboard with these buttons haha~

dammmm

Can their be a view for a passenger car also? Just out of curiosity.

I've tried turning the NumLK on and off, neither way functions. Not sure what exactly the problem is..

@Tyler Blu Gunderson
If you are still having trouble pressing 'page up' and 'page down' on the laptop numpads, make sure to disable the NumLK Button. That way it will function as a 'page up' or 'page down' button instead of the designated # key.
AnExplodingDodo 13 Feb, 2019 @ 3:35pm 
I second some of the comments below. I have the mod subscribed, but no matter how many times I press 'page up' and 'page down' on my laptop, nothing happens. I can't get any of the camera mods to work and this looks like it'd be my favourite.
Blu 10 Feb, 2019 @ 5:50am 
Is there anyways to re setup the toggle key for this mod?? I am using a laptop and the only Page Up and Page Down keys I have is through num pad, and I've tried over and over again but the cameras just wouldn't switch. Would be really appreciate if you may provide any method to resolve this issue, I really really hope I can get the mod to work here :/
AlphA 3 Feb, 2019 @ 6:37am 
I don't have page up nor page down key at my computer...
裸小羊 23 Jan, 2019 @ 8:46pm 
@Yrol Denjeah ,thanks and that is why I am calling for the mod.
Yrol Akiyama 16 Jan, 2019 @ 5:12pm 
裸小羊, These are added views, not new ones, so only the same information is displayed.
裸小羊 16 Jan, 2019 @ 11:08am 
Hello, I am interested in subscribing that in the weekends, before that one question is, whether the information of the train is shown in those views? For example, how many passengers are alongside, how many people are still waiting on the platform. Thank you!

Here's a short Ride-Along video I posted at YouTube the other day, featuring this mod's side-views mode: https://youtu.be/WPJaM0tVcjY . As mentioned in my previous post, this is the view mode I like best. It's now my go-to train-ride mode except for those trains it doesn't play nice with. One thing I like a lot in side view mode, trains look to be traveling at or near their proper speeds. With the game's default "nose job" ride view it's always seemed to me that they look to be traveling way faster than they should.
hamtgerry 30 Dec, 2018 @ 6:45am 
@vialii201 I too find the two side-views problematic. On a train-by-train basis they can work extremely well, produce results like yours, or behave but position the camera in unusable positions. It's the camera position I like best (of those provided) and use on those occasions is works as intended. I've raw footage of a train ride using the side position when it's at its best. It's very appealing imo. Would have posted it at YT by now but my video editior of choice recent "updated" and I can't make heads or tails of some of its functions now.

On the previous map, everything was fine.
Yrol Akiyama 28 Dec, 2018 @ 3:34pm 
manuto73, same as you read manuals apparently...
For clearance as this seems new to you,
the modcreators make the manual,
YOU have to read it yourself, that's what it is for.

Just tested and yeah you're right, this is strange, let me figure that out why and what this is causing. Thanks for the report
wicked  [author] 27 Dec, 2018 @ 6:04pm 
@Yrol Denjeah
I will explain those configs soon.... and also a way to simply add some custom values.
Pommes Gaming 27 Dec, 2018 @ 11:55am 
Kleiner Nachtrag: Es gibt zwei Ausnahmen. Diese sind die rote ÖBB1216 (Alllererste in der Liste beim Zugkaufen) und die ÖBB1216 Italia
Pommes Gaming 27 Dec, 2018 @ 11:44am 
Hey @wicked,
Ich möchte hiermit einen Bug melden. Und zwar bei den ÖBB 1216 (Taurus) Loks aus der Mod Siemens ES64U4 Pack: ÖBB wird man bei den Kamera- Perspektiven links und rechts auf die Seite gedreht und nicht, wie gedacht links bzw. rechts neben die Lok gesetzt. Ich hoffe, du kannst den Fehler behben.

LG

wicked, this is not a bugreport, but a cry for help: (not anymore)
I wanted to change the top-down-camera,
so i replaced:
{group = 0, transf = transf.rotZYXTransl(transf.degToRad(0, 90, 0), vec3.new(15, 0, 60)), fov = 40},
with:
{group = 0, transf = transf.rotZYXTransl(transf.degToRad(0, 45, 0), vec3.new(10, 0, 15)), fov = 45},
then, to find out what the vec3.new values mean, i changed those to:
vec3.new(10, 0, 15))
and suddenly the cameraswitching did not work anym...i could not change the cam....
welll, turns out, i mistakenly clicked on one of the passengers of my horsedrawn carriage °grins°

(just a heads-up for anyone who wants to edit the settings themselves.

Hallo, welche Tasten brauche ich auf meine iMac, der hat ja kein Pageup / down
wicked  [author] 25 Dec, 2018 @ 5:56pm 
@Dome_e39
Du hast recht, es liegt an der Auflösung. Die Ansichten sind je nach Auflösung anders. Das versaut mir natürlich gerade ein bisschen die Suppe :/ - werde mal schauen was sich da machen lässt. Demensprechend bringt es nicht viel wenn ich dir eine perspektive anbiete, da es je nach Auflösung bei dir wieder anders aussehen würde. hmmm
Dome_e39 24 Dec, 2018 @ 4:58pm 
Villeicht liegt das Problem ja auch eher daran das ich ein 1440p Monitor verwende.. bin mir nicht sicher wie TF das berücksichtigt. Übrigens noch eine frage am rande, ist es möglich die Fahrgast perspektive auf die Drehgestelle zu plazieren? Bei Kurvenfahrten oder Gleiswechsel wird man aus seiner Position "rausgeschleudert" oder wie man das formulieren sollte :D
wicked  [author] 24 Dec, 2018 @ 3:13am 
@Dome_e39
Das Problem ist, dass nicht alle Wagen gleich breit sind und so könnte es vorkommen, dass es bei einigen Wagen abgeschnitten sind. Aber eine Idee dies zu lösen hätte ich vielleicht noch.. werde mich da mal daran setzten.

Bei welchen Wagen hast du dieses Phänomen? Dann kann ich mal selbst testen.
Dome_e39 22 Dec, 2018 @ 2:44pm 
Ich find die Kameraperspektive als Fahrgast bei Zügen echt schön wäre da nicht das abschneiden des Zuges an den Bildschirmrändern. Kann man das nicht irgentwie lösen oder ist das ohne ein Update des entwicklers nicht möglich?

Gute Arbeit!

LG
-Dran drauf drüber- 22 Dec, 2018 @ 6:20am 
Danke dafür,schönes Fest1
wicked  [author] 22 Dec, 2018 @ 3:42am 
Thanks for the reports. I will check those issues. I may separate and adjust some views for some vehicle based on its type.

My mod does not overwrite other camera settings, problem is that other mods are maybe built that way, which I can not control. But I‘ll check what I can do.
thielsch.alex331984 22 Dec, 2018 @ 12:22am 
Das ist ein sehr schöner Mod als Weihnachtsgeschenk.
Da werden sich alle drauf freuen, die diesen Mod lange gewünscht wurde.

Ihr habt tolle Arbeit geleistet. :D
Yrol Akiyama 21 Dec, 2018 @ 11:39pm 
wicked, can you and smuffy maybe adjust each others mods so BOTH can be used at the same
time?
At the moment, when using both mods, some cameraviews cancel out the other mod's views.
This way, you both have your own valid mods instead of bloody noses from fighting over which ones' is the "better" :o)

(part 01)
Greetings, wicked one :o)
I have not played TPF in a while, so at first i thought "WOW someone finally added external
views!" Then i saw that is already part of the game.
Now i think "WOW, someone finally added MORE, configurable views!"
Great Work :o)

Small Itty-Bitty Issue with steam locomotives:
The camera is attached to those long steel bars
that connect the wheels, so the cameraview goes up and down and up and down and so on.
(i am not a train-enthusiast, i do not know the proper terms)
Yrol Akiyama 21 Dec, 2018 @ 11:01pm 
(part 02)
This Bug, if you may call it so, is kinda funny even, it looks a bit as if the locomotive would move
like a human. At least the view does not TURN with the wheel, TeeHee
I tested that with some of the vanilla steam locomotives and so far, that happens with the
Baldin's Six-Wheels. (i tried 3 others (but not all of them) where it does not happen.

I guess, modded locomotives will be a case-by-case situation, but that then is obviously not your
problem or fault)
That weird movement happens only on the side-cameras (group 2)
So this cannot be tested against vanilla TPF.

Schöner Mod. Danke :steamhappy:
