Immersive Mount Camera  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 1.0.1
by: Dimedius [More]
Greetings! I worked shortly with Nuojua's and his mod, Immersive Horse Riding addon and have been given permission to load my own work, Immersive Mount Camera. Also, a bit of mouse zoom in code borrowed from Khrill KhrillHelmControlFOVaddin (just to be clear, I did not reinvent the wheel, just made it a bit cleaner and gave it the ability to work as a standalone addon). Also wanted to thank my buddy Sculper for pointing out a conditional that could be removed and Baertram for helping me understand how keypress events work.

Video

What does it do?
- Sets camera to 1st person POV when summoning your mount
- Sets camera to 1st person POV when loading a zone
- Use players 1st/3rd person POV button to switch (NOTE: default 3rd person)
- Can use mouse wheel to zoom in to 1st person POV

*NEW
- Button to set preferred 3rd person POV distance
(NOTE: you can now set your preferred 3rd ppov by keybinding the button, scrolling to desired distance and pressing associated keybind. Can update as many times as you like and persists through logout)

Known Issue: works well as a standalone, however, when using with khrill helm addon, the dds helm overlay has a hard time reapplying when zooming back in. Fix for now is to go into 3rd person POV, toggle helm overlay off, then go into 1st person POV and wait a couple seconds then toggle helm back on (is compatible in every other way).
1.0.1

• Added button to record camera distance.

Please! I dont know you and i can understand you beeing mad but i do not think that insulting someone on the forum will help you more. Mad or super mad, dont cross some lines, that will not push any author to help you more.

This addon is outdated from 2015 .....

There are a couple tiny inconveniences, such as when you mount and toggle your camera then dismount, it requires any key to be clicked (keyboard or mouse) then it will toggle like normal (this seems to only happen when toggling the camera while mounted; if you toggle it while you're mounted, then dismount and toggle, the first time will require a second button interaction before toggling the camera. This resets every time you toggle while mounted). The other thing is, when you call your mount and you are in first person, it will zoom out a little then back in, not sure what causes this quite yet.
I would love to have the instant switch back. Not having it is actually keeping me from using this mod.

Thank you!

You are correct (I think khrill added ihr into his code to work flawlessly with each other. Mine is coded to work as a standalone, so no need to use khrills add on BUT is also compatible with it). I'm glad you like it!

Will keep that in mind, I might have to install one of those programs that show what keys I'm pressing (was trying to avoid doing a long video since my internet sucks and takes forever to upload). I'll try to make an updated one here in the next week to be more clear, thanks for the feedback!

EDIT: This addon is not for everyone, though what it does contain are cleaner codes (i.e. removal of conditional of needing to be less than 2 units of camera distance away in order to go to first person pov when summoning a mount), also giving it the ability to be used as a standalone from khrills helm addons (though it is still compatible to use with it). I say it isn't for everyone because its giving the ability to the player if they wanted to set their third person pov distance a preferred distance, they can (IHR doesn't have this ability, not yet) otherwise most everyone will be happy with using IHR.

Lua Code:
  1. ## Title: ImmersiveMountCamera
  2. ## Author: Dimedius
  3. ## Version: 1.00
  4. ## APIVERSION: 100011
  5.  
  6. ImmersiveMountCamera.lua
with line 4 being the issue. It should be:

Lua Code:
  1. ## Title: ImmersiveMountCamera
  2. ## Author: Dimedius
  3. ## Version: 1.00
  4. ## APIVersion: 100011
  5.  
  6. ImmersiveMountCamera.lua
Normally, I don't think this would be a problem, but because the .txt file can be so touchy when it comes to coding format, it may be the issue.

Overall though, great changes to the addon!
Thanks, I'll update that and get it reuploaded

EDIT: I checked the API version in the text and it matches the latest ver (100011). will look into it when I get more time.
Your API version is correct, but the format is incorrect. You have APIVERSION where it should be APIVersion. Changed it and it came up correctly.
Funny you say that, saw that and re uploaded. Its good to go, thanks!

Minion also doesn't find your add-on. It could be one of the reasons identified already.
