Title: Herky Jerky Vehiclecam
Post by: kueter on 07 May 2004, 03:24:56
Hiya all, :D
       I am making some cutscenes and want the camera to follow a helo. I downloaded snyper's vehiclecam.sqs, but everytime I have use it, the camera follows the helo but it bounces all over the place. Ack!  >:(

I am not an editing noob, but this script has never worked for me. Does anyone have any suggestion or is there a better alternative I am unaware of.

Thanks in advance,
Kuet

I noticed that too.  Snypirs vehiclecam works perfectly
You have to execute the script in your camscript itself,not in a trigger, waypoint or whatever...

The bouncing is not caused by the script, but by the heli or plane.
I suggest you wait until the plane reaches his cruising speed before you attach the camera.
Try the vehiclecam with a car or truck and you will see no bouncing. I had the same problem with mylogiccam (http://www.ofpec.com/yabbse/index.php?board=27;action=display;threadid=16197).
Attaching camera's to heli's or planes is a bit tricky...
