[1.0.5] Camera Tools v1.5.1 (+dogfight mode, autozoom margin slider) - March 28

[allmhuran]

I just tried the new release of this, thanks for keeping it going.

Path mode seems to have an issue if you save a path and then want to use it again when reloading the kerbal save file. I had a path going around the KSC, but when I reloaded the game the first point of the path was in a different position and pointing up at the sky. Might be to do with the rotation of kerbin or its orbit around the sun? It seems like the path tool needs to store its reference frame.

I feel a bit of a dunce for asking, but did the doppler effect get broken again at any stage? I'm trying the aforementioned 'caretaker' release and it doesn't seem to work.

Yes, when KSP 1.1 arrived. AFAIK hasn't worked since. Should be easy to fix because the feature is embedded in Unity. But I'm no programmer.

Bummer! Not a deal breaker by any stretch, but it's a lovely little touch when it is working.

3: zoom out

I'm a bit confused as to how the pathing mode works. Could somebody clarify that for me?

Awesome mod! Even from what I know how to use, I love it!

[Jebs_SY]

@Wren or @ any care taker...

How is your mood for modding at the moment?
I have a small issue, that is at the same time a deal breaker for me. Using KSP 1.22 and the latest CT version.

As soon as I use a camera from the CT, the music volume in the flight scene is broken. You can see this here in this video. From then on, the music volume on the flight scene (not on the map scene) changes with the camera zoom.

Not even going back to the KSP main menu is fixing this, one needs to fully restart KSP. Is there any chance to fix that?

 

Regarding the "focus goes back to root part instead of the center of mass"-issue, I know, that the mod camera focus changer is going back to the center of mass, so there one maybe can look, how it works.

Maybe this is even related and fixed together.

A member of the BDArmory team has taken it upon himself to maintain this mod in Baha's absence

Here is @jrodriguez's github releases page for Camera Tools: https://github.com/jrodrigv/CameraTools/releases

Be advised that it was compiled for KSP v1.2.1, however I haven't noticed any issues running it in v1.2.2

I missed adding a link to this mod to the BDArmory Continued thread and will correct this in the near future ... in the meantime you can find other Baha mods that have been taken on by our team or other modders in the OP of the BDAc thread:

Camera Tools works fine in KSP v1.2.2

There will be a warning when starting up KSP that says CT is only for KSP v1.2.1 but you can ignore this as it works as is

I  would like to figure out how to  fly past an orbiting, rotating object  (like a rotating space station in orbit) without the camera rotating in unison with the station.   Does anyone know if this is possible?  Thanks

Targeting

- Click "Set target w/ click" then click on a vessel or part to set it as your target

- You can also just click target self to target your active vessel's command unit

- The camera will point at the target you select.

Thanks.  When I do this, the camera follows the target as it follows the prescribed path.  But the camera rotates in sync with the target as it flies the path.  (The target is a rotating station).   I'd like to have the camera fly past the target but not rotate as it flies by.

So what I believe is happening is you are downloading from the link in the OP of this thread 

Please go to the following thread and download camera tools from there

This thread should be closed as it is old and Baha is no longer with us

Stick a weapon manager on each of the craft, make one team B and then use the dogfight mode

Hi all,

I have released a new version of CameraTools compatible with KSP 1.2.9 and KSP 1.2.2

In this new version I have fixed the issue regarding when reverting cam was doing a wrong target to the root part.

https://github.com/jrodrigv/CameraTools/releases/tag/v1.8.0

[DiscoSlelge]

I'm runing with the 1.2.2 but it seems to doesn't work, I install it in the game data (CameraTools folder unziped in the Game data) but there is nothing ingame, there is should be a little camera in the tool bar isn't it ? Btw I downloaded your latest version on github @jrodriguez.

Working fine? You don't have this problem?

As soon as I use camera tools, the sound is broken. The music volume raises/lowers when zooming in/out the ship. Until one restarts KSP. For me, at least.
Is this a mod conflict, only I have?

Can you check if you have a GameData folder inside your GameData folder?

From what you describe it sounds like KSP is treating music like it treats craft sounds which is to say the further away from the craft you are the lower the sound effects will be ... The BDAc team will require your KSP.log, modlist and computer specs in order to get to the bottom of this as we aren't even able to confirm this is a mod conflict without this information

I just tried it, it's easy to reproduce this error.

Just removed ALL mods (/folders except Squad) and installed Camera Tools 1.8.0 via CKAN (which also installs Module Manager) on KSP 1.2.2.

With that "vanilla+CameraTools" install I was able to reproduce the "CT breaks music volume"-problem easily. It's still there.

See this video.
