Adjust camera settings with Database Editor

From TDUF 1.10.0

Database Editor now knows how to read any cameras.bin file located in same directory as your database files.

Thus there's a new tab for Cameras and IKs settings in Vehicle Slots profile. Following steps will assume you're already at this tab from now on.

Change camera set for a vehicle slot

Steps

  1. From current slot, just select another camera set in Available cameras list. Like before, entering the camera identifier directly still works
  2. Don't forget to hit Save button, as always!

Screens

Editing cameras Selecting camera set

Edit view properties

Note: changing settings for a view will affect all vehicles using the same camera set. As a result, I recommend setting a dedicated camera set per slot. TDUCP already provides this, and in future updates you will be able to create new camera sets without TDUCP, too!

Steps

  1. From current camera set, just select any available view in Available views list
  2. Selected view settings should appear in table
  3. To change a particular value, double-click corresponding Value cell, enter new value then press ENTER.
  4. Repeat previous step as needed
  5. When all changes made, don't forget to hit Save button!

Note: negative values are accepted (may change in the future)

Hoping to add support for more settings in the future...

  4. New camera set will be automatically assigned to current slot
  5. Customize view settings to your likings
  6. When all changes made, don't forget to hit Save button!

Exporting view settings

From TDUF 1.11.0

You can export either current camera view, or all views, to a JSON file for sharing or backup.

Importing view settings

From TDUF 1.11.0

Steps

  2. Click Import... button at the right hand
  3. Browse location of JSON file to import from
