Project Bodycam [Alpha] (bug fixing)
If you encounter any issues, errors, or bugs, or have suggestions, please feel free to report them here.

Even when I'm not responding directly, I will read your feedback and include it in the next fix/update or help resolve it if I can.

Whenever possible, please include any stack traces (error messages displayed in the console) along with a clear explanation of the issue!

I will do my best to address and resolve these in future hotfixes. However, please note that as this is a personal side project, I currently can't dedicate much time to working on it. The addon is still in its alpha testing phase, so some bugs are expected.

Known issues I'm going to address with high priority


  1. When Bodycam is on, ARC9 Weapon Flashlights are glitchy. [FIXED]

  2. Cannot open menu (for some users, the menu key is B, not H). [FIXED]
    Quick fix for now:
    You can open the console and set the menu key via:
    bodycam_open_menu_key [*YOUR KEY*]

    Additionally, you can try toggling the GUI via:
    bodycam_toggle_ui


  3. Many addons influencing bone structures and movement speed are causing issues. [SEMI FIXED]

  4. Other addons influencing camera behavior are causing issues.

  5. Dynamic crosshair behaving weirdly or becoming invisible with other addons.

  6. Black and purple checkerboard on screen (caused by the vignette; disable it if you encounter this issue).

  7. When going over certain objects, the camera goes to the ground. [FIXED]

  8. Stairs are making for a rather nauseating experience when walking on them. [SEMI FIXED]

  9. Multiplayer issues:

    Multiplayer is still hard to adjust for because it was never written for it, but I will do my best to achieve a basic, stable multiplayer experience.

  10. Single-player/story maps glitching out the camera when loading a new level. [SEMI FIXED]


Known stack traces:

[Caused by the cam angle, cached variables not being initialized properly] [Project Bodycam Base [Alpha]] lua/client/project_bodycam/bodycam_camera.lua:233: attempt to perform arithmetic on global 'cachedVerticalAngleOffset' (a nil value) 1. unknown - lua/client/project_bodycam/bodycam_camera.lua:233 2. Run - lua/dlib/modules/hook.lua:929 3. unknown - lua/autorun/client/cl_view_roll.lua:59 4. unknown - lua/dlib/modules/hook.lua:929


Most important issue:
- No updates in ten billion years.

I know there are more issues, but I will focus on those listed above first.

Your feedback, help, and understanding are greatly appreciated. Thanks for your support!

dynamic crosshair doesnt appear when using arc9 weapons, ive disabled all other hud/camera addons. it appeared once, but after using an arc9 weapon it hasnt appeared since, except after complete restart. it also doesnt disable my default crosshair with the setting for it on.
