ARMA 2: GCam 1.12

[Gigan000]

I found out the same problem by applying patch 1.60. Although not investigated strictly, it seems that restriction of updating frequency started the specific script command by patch 1.60. Gcam view may be unable to be used in the future. I am going to find out the method of an improvement.

@Gigan000

I have same proble with USMCG0811

[USMCG0811]

I completed the test with no addons running minus of course GCam and it's still occurring.

[Gigan000]

@USMCG0811 Thanks for the test. When the occurring, how much is distance of gcam execution position and the unit which gcam follows? It may be the problem cause that distance is long. Can it check that the problem occurs, even when the distance is short?

[USMCG0811]

@Gigan000

Tried it and the distance does not matter. Any ideas?

[Gigan000]

@USMCG0811 After running gcam, how much time has passed? Is it caused also in short time? Also, is it related to other kinds (heli, tank etc.) or fly height of jet which gcam pursues?

[USMCG0811]

@Gigan000

1. It will launch immediately.

2. It will occur in normal, fast, or slow-motion.

3. It's with any object in motion (helis, armored vehicles, soldiers, etc).

[Gigan000]

@USMCG0811 It is revealed even when a video option and view distance are lowered most?

[USMCG0811]

I apologize it took so long to get back to you. Here is the video. The issue occurs about 13 second into it and happens when any object is in motion (aircraft, vehicle, etc). The video is the titled GCam issues.

[Gigan000]

@USMCG0811 Thanks for upload the issue video. It's serious. Isn't gcam script run doubly?

[USMCG0811]

@Gigan000

I activate it via the in game option. I honestly have no idea why it's doing this.

[Gigan000]

@USMCG0811 The stammer has occurred in gcam script loop process. It's necessary to find the cause of script loop stammers. Also where all mod(s) are removed, does the phenomenon occur? While using specific mod, can it check that the phenomenon has occurred?

[USMCG0811]

@Gigan000

I'll conduct a test using only GCam, turn off the other mods, and get right back to you.

[USMCG0811]

Hey Gigan. When following a aircraft the plane/screen shakes wildly. Any ides to fix this?

[Gigan000]

@USMCG0811 When the heavy script is working besides gcam, delay may arise in camera motion.

[USMCG0811]

@Gigan000

It's not delay really. It occurs when any object is in motion whether it's a soldier, vehicle, or aircraft. It's almost as if the camera can't decide what its doing when the object is in motion.

[Gigan000]

@USMCG0811 If possible, show video which the problem has revealed.

[PodgorniyYura]

Hi, took a few clips with your camera script, but after patch 1.60 badly camera slows down, if you will correct me please lime.

[Gigan000]

@PodgorniyYura I will to try to script improvement as much as possible.

[PureGameVids]

Can you remove the unit names? Make it so the names of the units don't show up?

[Gigan000]

@PureGameVids Little difficult in version 1.13. find titletext commands, and comment out it in script. if gcam version is 2.0 beta, you can find the option 'SHOWUNITNAME' in head part of the script file.

[PureGameVids]

@Gigan000 Where do I download Gcam 2.0 beta?

[Gigan000]

@PureGameVids see my profile and website. 2.0 download links can be found there.

[PressyTCN]

i used the addon version but cant seem to get it uo in the game

i used addon method like this @gcam in the a 2 main

[Gigan000]

@PressyTCN It is likely to colided with other installed mods. plz try only @gcam.

[PressyTCN]

@PressyTCN already did that is there a special key i have to press to get it up?

[ysydor18]

Hi thanks for ur great ADDON. I want to ask you if the GCAM 1.3 or 1.2 are predifed only for utes and desert eagle. I don't know why u predifed 1.3 for desert eagle as it doesn't came with the game. i don't have that map. Anyhow my question is can use the cam for map OMAHA BEACH? i would like to make a movie with arma 2 i've already done some movies with IL2 check them on my profile.

[sofiane93700]

you are crazy man thx a lot guy for this addon very good work

[Spetznaz]

make some option to turn on/off mouse cursor

[BriSTEAMZ]

Hey, where do you type in the scripts? And how do you access it? Also, when I downloaded gcam, it only had 2 screenshots and a file with a lot of docuements with texts like gcam.sqf. So, where is the command bar where I type in things like setacctime or player exec "camera.sqs"?

[Gigan000]

@BriSTEAMZ Please load gcam_1_12.utes at mission editor. Its a gcam demo mission. The demo mission is begun and gcam is started at once. Or, the latest beta version can be downloaded on my site. An addon version is included in. It can easily access gcam according to the action menu of man unit.

[WinchesterDelta1]

Impressive addon man... But one queston... How can you make the mouse pointer disapear? Cause that would be verry handy when you make vids.

[Gigan000]

@WinchesterDelta1 The capturing tools is equipped with the option which hides a mouse pointer. A tool like Fraps or Dxtory.

[Oizzack]

This will help a lot of amateur ArmA 2 video captures, good job. Great stuff.

[GamingMusicVideos1]

do u know a way to pause the game os use slow motion?

[Gigan000]

@GamingMusicVideos1 The way to change time speed into GCam is not carried. Please use setAccTime command additionally. Like a setAccTime 0.5 and 0. GCam can be moved even if it stops time :)

[FFTFTCEd]

wow! very impressive addon tool, I love the functionality of the camera motion, one question, can you disable the cursor so it's invisible?

[Gigan000]

@FFTFTCEd

Thanks for your using :D The method of hiding cursor is not found. If you taking a movie with a tool like fraps, the option which hides cursor by setup of the tool can be found.

[Minimalacoo]

woouuu, nice work gigan :D

[Gigan000]

@Minimalacoo

Thanks :D
