Example Scripts

Nose Camera

This script place a camera on the nose of an apache.

#include "\vbs2\headers\function_library.hpp" 

_forever = true;

_locationPosition = GetPos apache;

_camera = "camera" camcreate _locationPosition;
_camera cameraEffect["internal","back"];
//_camera CamSetDir 0;
_camera CamSetFOV 1;


_camera camSetTarget _locationPosition;
//_camera CamSetPos [_locationPosition Select 0,(_locationPosition Select 1) + 2, 5];
_camera CamSetPos _locationPosition;
_camera CamSetFOV 0.7;
_camera CamCommit 0;


while {(_forever)} do {
	
	_locationPosition = GetPos apache;
	_locationPosition = apache modelToWorld [0,6,2];
	_targetPosition = apache modelToWorld [0,100,0];	
	_camera camsettarget _targetPosition;
	_camera CamSetPos _locationPosition;
	_camera CamCommit 0;
	
	sleep 0.005;
	

};

Notes:

 * For the life of me I could not control the bank angle of the camera.  Tried to use CamSetBank but no dice!

UAV Shadow

	_wPosArray = waypoints uav_1;
	hint format ["uav has %1 waypoint..%2",(count _wPosArray), _wPosArray];
	sleep 1;
};
