About the project

This modification gives the possibility of adding cameras, e.g. a discharge pipe camera or a rear view camera. You can easily switch between added cameras which are displayed as HUD. As standard, some of the originally available vehicles and implements were equipped with camera configurations.

Change camera system mode (off/on) - "z" key (default)
Next/previous camera - "left shift + k/m" keys (default)

Vehicle Integration

You can just copy code below and fill it with appropriate data type. (Here you will find a list of vehicles integrated by default)

<cameraSystem>
  <cameraConfigurations>
    <cameraConfiguration name="string" price="integer">
      <camera node="node" name="string" fov="float" nearClip="float" farClip="float" activeFunc="string" rotation="x y z" translation="x y z"/>
    </cameraConfiguration>
  </cameraConfigurations>
</cameraSystem>

Tag	Attribute	Description	Default	isRequired
cameraConfiguration	name	translation key for configuration name or configuration name	-	-
cameraConfiguration	price	price of configuration	-	-

Tag	Attribute	Description	Default	isRequired
objectChange	node	object node which visibility will be affect, node index or i3dMapping	-	true
objectChange	visibilityActive	whether or not object is visible in this configuration	-	-
objectChange	visibilityInactive	whether or not object is visible all time	-	-

You can add configurations to mods/internalMods/dlcs/inGame to default integration file CameraSystemDefaultVehicleData.xml as shown below

<cameraSystemDefaultVehicleData>
  <vehicles>
    <vehicle xmlFilename="string" price="integer">
      <cameras>
        <camera nodeName="string" visibilityNodeName="string" name="string" fov="float" nearClip="float" farClip="float" activeFunc="string" rotation="x y z" translation="x y z"/>
      </cameras>
    </vehicle>
  </vehicles>
</cameraSystemDefaultVehicleData>

Rest of camera attributes are the same as shown above

Tag	Attribute	Description	Default	isRequired
vehicle	xmlFilename	path to vehicle xml file	-	true
vehicle	price	price of configuration	500	-
camera	nodeName	name of i3dMapping where camera will be linked	-	true
camera	visibilityNodeName	name of i3dMapping node that visibility is needed	-	-

Prefixes for specific paths:

Path	Prefix	Example	isRequired
mods	mod	mod/FS22_caseIHMagnum7240Pro/magnum7240Pro.xml	true
dlcs	dlc	dlc/claasSaddleTracPack/vehicles/claas/xerion4000.xml	true
