SA & LCS Vehicle Camera Port - r6

[erorcun]

SA & LCS Vehicle Camera

 

Hi! I've ported the San Andreas vehicle camera to III... I don't think I need any further explanation to write here.

 

Mods confirmed to be compatible

ClassicAXIS (if you turn off vehicle camera from .ini file)

First Person Mod by GeniuSZ

III Aircraft (you can enjoy exact same SA camera while flying aircrafts!)

GInput

 

Controls

Exact same as SA; except the binding(generally RMB) that disables mouse steering/flying and enables mouse to move camera for a moment.

I'm open to suggestions for which key I should use for that.

 

Is it really exact same SA camera, technically?

Except collision detecting, yes. (There is also one more case for III, it doesn't have zoom values per vehicle types, so I emulated the VC / SA / LCS system.)

SA collision detecting was incompatible with III / VC, so I've used the one from LCS. Also I've fixed the LCS bug that makes you see the inside of car if you really want it.

Re:LCS;

Spoiler

Ryadica926 asked me if I can do a special version with LCS angles and zoom values, since SA and LCS vehicle cameras are basically same (except LCS has some values adjusted).

 

 

Downloads

Currently only for 1.0 exes of III and VC;

 

r6 Latest release

• Now you can use LCSCarCam.asi on III/VC or SACarCam.asi on Re:LCS! It detects whether you use Re:LCS and changes things according to that.
  That's why I changed the title to SA & LCS car camera.
• All these times I've thought zoom values wasn't for III/VC camera system, so I had adjusted them.
  But it turned out some crappy mod on my SA was manipulating how I see the things (specifically FOV on 4:3 and 16:9 was same).
  Now I've corrected the zoom values, which will make the view zoomed out a bit on widescreen. But you can correct it via debug menu. (This is also how it's been on PS2/PSP, since their FOV is untouched unlike our games with widescreen fixes.)
• I've added debug menu support, there are 5 options but I won't tell them here hehe.
• Fixed: Camera was clipping through bike model when you're on bike.
• Fixed for LCSCarCam: Alpha angle(up-down) was restricted on firetruck unlike LCS.
• Fixed: Original SA/LCS bug, you could still move camera up-down in drive-by (and it was buggy).

Old releases

r5

 

Thanks to @Silent , now;

• Right stick up/down also works on Standard configuration. (but not if you're not using GInput)
• Invert Look option will react to setting changes on runtime

For Re:LCS;

• Turret's itself in Firetruck now rotates with camera as in LCS.

r4

• Mouse sensitivity is now tied to mouse sensitivity setting
• GInput right stick Y-axis inversion is fixed
• Had to disable SA camera angle for garage exit in III. It wasn't looking well.

Thanks to

All re3 contributors, especially The Hero(aap) to help me learn reverse engineering.

Noskillx for intensive testing, he really helped me and found a lot of bugs before releasing it.

Awww, thats just what we all needed,i can finally stop using those pesky "camera movement mods" which are just broken hacks. Great Work!

[Igor Bogdanoff]

What about ginput compatiblity?
Does this has 1:1 controls on mouse and on gamepad? (since i recall some difference between two)

[Matt1010]

Well, this just became a must-need for me. Brilliant work!

[Jinx.]

Dark magic stuff here. GJ

[gts.]

Amazing!

Are you planning to do the SA player camera to III and VC as well? That includes weapon cameras, rotation around the player with the right stick, etc. If all of the previous stuff I mentioned gets implemented then this mod will be a good replacement for classic axis, since this is 1:1 SA camera ported to III (for now) literally. And it looks really good and modern.

Sadly no, I'm not planning that as of right now. It would take longer than this.

Hehe, triple post but whatever.

Vice City support is here!

 

r3

- SA zoom values are also ported to III, which is seperate for cars, boats, helis and bikes(ofc you can't use the last one in III)

Video no work  Great job anyways! Will there be San Andreas support?

Yes. Because it's hard to read that this plugin is the same San Andreas camera ported to GTA III and GTA VC. So, how will you use it in San Andreas if it exists already there?

Awesome

[H-G]

This does not work for me, it asks me for vcruntime140.dll. There should be a "legacy mode" option somewhere in VS 2017, I think. Also, the player camera would be really great to see considering how things are exactly 1:1 here. And here's another thing, why not include an optional INI file where one can decide which game's zoom values to use? That's a much better idea instead of making two ASIs with different zoom values. And in case if the INI is not present, the code would simply fall back to SA's zoom values.

Sorry but I'm not planning to do anything you asked for. Also you can install Visual C++ Redistributable if you want.

Oh, well, no problem.

genuinely amazing 

[SkelePap]

Is it just me or is the mouse sensitivity in a vehicle not changed when changing it in the mouse settings in the options menu?

I've also noticed that when using the closest camera angle the lights of the vehicle you're driving don't really show anymore, must be because the camera is too close to the vehicle, also noticed this only occurs during daytime.

Any way to fix either of these if the first is indeed an issue?

(This is on VC, BTW)

Really great mod that I didn't think would actually be possible. The only real issue I encountered is that if you're playing on a gamepad, the Y-axis is reversed (All versions had the same result). https://imgur.com/a/FxwH7wg

[PotatoNeega]

Is there any way to aim in cars with the mouse like the GTA SA DriveBy mod or nothing still? It feels great either way, great mod!

 

EDIT: Also, the sensitivity is not transferred from the user settings it seems. It just uses default 100% sensitivity I think.

You guys are right, I didn't care mouse sensitivity setting at all. Will be fixed in next release, thanks!

 

About car lights, I don't think I can do anything.

Whoops, I will investigate that, thanks.

[gts.]

Wait a minute?... LCS version is out as well? This can't be more perfect. Well until player/ped camera gets implemented someday, until that day, this mod will be the definitive camera mod for old GTA games as GTA3 and GTAVC. Great work.

Sorry for off topic, but are those neo reflections from SkyGfx? 

 

Ont: Awesome mod. I hope SA will get IV/V on foot camera someday

Nope, those are VCS reflections.

[SherifWayne]

How do I install it on my game? I have literally never installed a mod before as I'm a PS4 player but Vice City is one of the only games I have for PC and I would love to be able to play it with a working camera. Help!
