Hello guys! Today i want to present you a script i made, because i needed a way of filming a shot from the same position every time. As the title of this topic says this is a camera editor wich lets you create cameras that can interpolate in 3 different ways, or that can be static.

TUTORIAL/DEMO VIDEO

Commands:

Quote:

/newcam - This command is used to create a new camera. /camint - This will let you change the interpolation state of your camera. /editcam - This will display the edit UI, wich you can use to change camera\'s position. /editlook - This will display the edit UI, wich you can use to change the position where your camera is looking. /ieditcam - This will display the edit UI, wich you can use to change interpolated camera\'s position. /ieditlook - This will display the edit UI, wich you can use to change the interpolated position where your camera is gonna look. /camtime - This edits the camera position interpolation time. /looktime - This edits the camera look at interpolation time. /playcam - This will play the camera animation. /stopcam - This will get you out of camera mode. /exportcam - This will export the code lines you need to implement a camera animation in your script.

Notes:

Quote:

1.All the cameras will be saved in the scriptfiles in a database called camdb.db. 2.All the exported cameras will output in scriptfiles in a file called cameraexports.txt. 3.You can create up to 100 cameras, you can enlarge this limit by editing \'MAX_CAMS\' from within the script. 4.If you manage to fill the database, you have to delete the camdb file if you want to create more cameras.

ToDo List:

Quote:

1.Camera select command, so you don\'t have to type the id at every single command. 2.Sequence creator, that lets you select multiple cameras and play them in order.(For movie creators) 3.Improved visuals(gizmos) 4.Flymode camera edit compatibility

Instalation:

Quote:

1.Download the cameditor.rar 2.Unzip the archive. 3.Copy and paste the two folders into your gamemode folder. 4.Open server.cfg with notepad, and add \'cameraeditor\' to your filterscripts. Also add \'streamer\' and \'sscanf\' to the plugins line. If you dont have the line, create it under the filterscripts. 5.Run the server and thats it!

P.S If you have any suggestions, let me know by commenting down there.

Having played around a lot with camera angles myself, I can see the appeal of this FS. However, knowing from experience, the above mentioned feature is a real must for productivity. Say you want to have a really precise shot, right now you\'d have to constantly enter and exit the edit mode, because you can\'t see what exact point the camera is looking at.


Judging from the video, the rest seems great though.

Right, thats why i want to make it more easy to use, to improve the work flow.

Hi, I\'m facing some trouble.

So I instaled how you said, extract the .pwn and .amx into FilterScript Folder and add "cameraeditor" at FilterScript Line at server.cfg

PHP Code:

none of your command is working.

Do I need any different include? Like ZCMD or sscanf?

@Flashhie, Salut! good job mate.

But after i\'ve checked into the pwn file, i saw the includes list which is:

PHP Code:

#include <a_samp>

#include <YSI\y_iterate>
#include <YSI\y_commands>
#include <YSI\y_master>
#include <streamer>
#include <sscanf2>
#pragma dynamic 500000 


Don\'t you think you have forgotten zcmd.inc? because all your command are being processed by ZCMD.

for example"

PHP Code:

CMD:newcam (playerid, params[]) 


same parameters as ZCMD\'s one.


So the includes list should be like that:

PHP Code:

#include <a_samp>

#include <YSI\y_iterate>
#include <YSI\y_commands>
#include <YSI\y_master>
#include <streamer>
#include <sscanf2>
#include <zcmd> //Add this

You have to use the sscanf plugin, and also streamer plugin. I forgot to add them to the tutorial.


EDIT: Installation guide and download link updated!

I used y_commands for this script, it does the same as zcmd but a little faster.

One more thing.. How to delete camera?
There are a few bugs, the GIZMOS appear during interpolation /playcam

I will add a command to remove gizmos in a update

How the bug occured? Show me some evidence

So I was on /playcam and I did this command : /camint 1 and then /playcam 1 and the gizmos appeared

Guess I shouldn\'t have done the command while spectating camera

[Flashhiee]

Yeah, i will fix that for the next updated so that you can\'t use /camint while in camera mode.


Thanks for the feedback! I apreciate it!

Its fine man, chill.

Hi, it\'s real to find analog of this FS in .cleo or .lua? Thanks for answer.
