Hullcam VDS - A Mechjeb hullcam fork

Hullcam let's you add different cameras(black and white, grainy tv, nightvision, etc) to any part of your vehicle or construction.

Docking ports have special docking cameras now and you can also see through the eyes of your Kerbals in EVA.

Scroll down for a video demonstration of the new filters.

Controls:

Next camera: - (Minus)

Previous camera: = (Equals)

Exits hullcam view: Backspace

You can change these keys by editting \Gamedata\HullcameraVDS\Plugin\settings.cfg

Please don't forget to delete any previous version before installing the latest one and back up your saved game

[url=http://www./?1b7i24nwbx7x5oy]V0.2.7.1 27-Oct-2013[/url]

[url=http://www./download/2a7vwd3dd4gcxx7/HullCameraVDS-0.2.7.zip]V0.2.7 25-Oct-2013[/url] 
-Map bug fixed by a.g. (skybox bug remains)
-Added all parts to the tech tree.
-Added Ordan Industries Telescopes(with permission of hubbazoot and added them to Unmanned Tech.
-Added part Basic Hullcam Deluxe and to Science Tech.
-Added Aerocams to Aerodynamic Systems
-Added Kerbpro to Field Science

[url=http://www./download/2a7vwd3dd4gcxx7/HullCameraVDS-0.2.5.zip]V0.2.5 15-Sep-2013[/url] 
-Made the keys configurable using the same config syntax as the game itself. The included config file is the one I made for dvorak, while the default without any config replicates the original behavior. The config can be dropped anywhere in GameData.
- Added a check that the current camera is flight, using a CameraManager object referenced in e.g. SteamGauges code. This lets it interact nicely with stuff like IVA views.
- Fixed unreliable action of next/prev keys. The problem was using "-=" instead of "&= ~" to remove a bit.
- Try to replace the map view hack with manually saving and restoring a couple more properties. It seems to work, although I can only guess at the full purpose of the map view hack.
- Glitchy switching between multiple cameras with next/prev keys because they all tried to handle the key.
- Crash if exiting to space center while a camera is active.
- Changed "next camera" and "previous camera" keys to - and = (Minus and Equals)
- Changed "exit hullcam view" key to Backspace. 
- Added areocam180 part, which has a 180 rotated camera view.
- Tweak the areaocam and areocam180 field of view.

[URL="http://www./download/n9gp33vatmt0o6j/HullCameraVDS-0.2.1.zip"]V0.2.1 10-Sep-2013[/URL]

[URL="http://www./download/a28g7dkmjkux33k/HullCameraVDS-0.2.zip"]V0.2 23-Aug-2013[/URL]
- Changed cycle keys to O and P
- Pressing V will exit hullcam view
- Added KerbPro Camera (created by sirkut)

[URL="http://www./download/idcb8ark8jpc5w7/HullCameraVDS-0.1.zip"]v0.1 16-Aug-2013[/URL]
- Made Mechjeb hullcam into a single hullcam.dll

You guys know that Romfarer had a camera mod that was additional to his Lazor mod ?

It has a neat camera part with controls that opens up a little window you can move about. It doesnt need any lazor part added to the craft to work but does need the actual mod.

Find it here : http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/lazor-cam/

(Note: I noticed it was 0.21 compatible, and it may not even need the original Lazor mod to work (it may be self sufficient in this download...worth a try I guess)).

Something which actually looks like you can stick it to a rocket and something like the Apollo Rover cam. :)

Would great if you could make those.

I almost want to jokingly make a KerbPro camera. :)

Funny I just tried a modified version of the Multiversal Mechatronics - Fixed Camera yesterday and it messed up. Looks like I'll have to reinstall it now!

Reinstalled: The zoom option does not show up to add to the action groups.

I made a camera platform and placed it at the VAB doors, pans and tilts nicely using the Infernal Robitics pack.

Ah, was going to get round to this but it has been done for me! thanks!

Pan & tilt via action groups for the current camera is the only thing I'd want - robotics mods are not really the solution if you plaster something with cameras.

I try with Firefox and success...but the file with parts is empty!

read the OP it clearly states theres no parts included

it also states you can use thishttp://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/showthread.php/12329-0-19-Multiversal-Mechatronics-Fixed-Camera-1-3?highlight=camera but use the dll from this mod though i havent tested it

Oh thank you, it finally works! (runs off to stick one on every rover).

Could there be another way to exit the camera view? "Esc" brings up the pause menu and shows a kind of spastic view while at it -- the original MuMech did that too, but only for an instant, as it didn't pause. Pressing C, which normally switches you out of IVA, doesn't work, and neither does V which switches between stock camera modes, both would be good candidates for exit-out-of-camera-mode key.

You can use action groups to activate a camera.

I could change the cycle controls, any suggestions to which keys?

; and ' are next to each other on my keyboard, are directly beneath [ and ] which already 'sort of' switch cameras (between active vessels) and I cant think of anything that uses them. I'm not sure if my keyboard is typical, though.

User-definable in a config file would be best. That way, you mitigate compatibility issues with future mods.

As Gavin noted ; and ' are convenient for many common keyboard layouts, and KSP doesn't use them by default.

Seems like KSP doesn't let allow the use of ' as an input key.

So it's going to be a cfg file only.

I'm also looking at getting movable cameras to work.

I frequently assign Damned/Infernal Robotics actions to those keys.
