Realistic Onboard Cams

More Close to the real thing
and no more movement at T-cams

 

[Robin Chung]

Very nice! Should please a lot of people using that wheel.

 

[Rob Simms]

It worked with the Ferrari, but every other car the steam.exe stops working after loading screen between track scenes and pits! I put the copy of the original file back into the folder and I get into the pits! It might need to be done for each car.

 

[Rob Simms]

I read the other post, so now it is fixed. I didn't remove the numbers at the end of cameras.

 

[DeepPurple]

Like some have said above, It would be cool if we could have it central and without movement.
Nice work though!

No Head Bob

This is self explanatory really, for all those F1 2010 lovers out there who like to drive in the cockpit but don't like the head movement. With this installed there is no head movement/bobbing when in cockpit view

Simply overwrite the original files with the ones i have included. Best to backup original untouched files before doing this.

Enjoy

 

[Dario Jagar]

only problem is that it is replacing same file used for FOV reduction, it will be nice to have both, thx

my atempt, FOV 42, litlle higher view+no head bob

use at your own risk of course :tongue:

 

[Aldea Razvan]

[Andrew Macpherson]

I haven't tried this yet but someone has apparently removed head bobbing:

[Zhuravlik]

could someone upload the files from the original camera ...

Thanks

 

[slider916]

Could someone please explain how to move the seat up a little in cockpit view?

Thanks.

 

[Dario Jagar]

this line in cameras file:
<Parameter name="position" type="vector3" x="0.0000" y="0.7261" z="-0.0734" />
y=height I think, default 0,6661

Here are the Default Cameras is case some of the edited ones aren't something you are looking for.

 

[Günthar Rowe]

I'm just "manual merging"

*Make a copy of all original files*

First - Download Binary xml converter from here: Binary xml converter.zip

Second - Copy Binary xml files into the cars folder you want to edit. I'm going to use fe0, which is Ferrari.

Third - Open Command Prompt (by typing cmd from Start menu then search) and have it read to the path of the cars folder that cameras is located in. In this case that is:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\f1 2010\cars\fe0

At Command Prompt. Copy the file path and then in command prompt right-click and press paste. Don't forget to put (cd) before the path.

C:\Users\Chad(This will be your computer name)>cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\f1 2010\cars\fe0

(Then press enter)

It should look like this:

Fourth - Now to convert to a readable file.

Copy this: binXML.exe --textxml=cameras.txt.xml cameras.xml

Right click at the cmd screen and select paste.

Press Enter and you should see a cameras.txt file in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\f1 2010\cars\fe0

Leave cmd open, you will need it later.

Right click cameras.txt and open in Notepad or Word.

To edit the cockpit view press F3 for search.

In search box type head-cam and press enter.

It will be the first line. It should read:

<View type="Head" ident="head-cam" reverseCamera="head-cam_reverse" hidden="false" spectator="false" renderParticlesBeforeGrass="false" transitionType="switch" transitionSpeed="0.0000" transitionStrength="0.0000">

Now move down two line and you will see: <Parameter name="fov" type="scalar" value="25.0000" />

Bolded number will be different for you. I have already edited mine. To change your FOV just edit the bolded line. I like 25.0000 better.

When done, File > Save.

Fifth - Convert back to Binary.

Go into cmd again so it reads: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\f1 2010\cars\fe0

Like it did before.

Copy and paste this to cmd

binXML.exe --binxml=cameras.xml cameras.txt.xml

Press enter and you are done.

Here is what 30.0000 looks like.

Here is gameplay with 25.0000.

Here was default FOV, big difference.

FOV Adjustment Version 2

I found out there were some bugs with 3 screens and it also changed the seat height.

So here is a new version with cameras for each car instead a universal one.

Had to do two parts because of size requirements. Also added default cameras.

This FOV pack includes 30, 40 , 50 and 60 for every car.

Copy and Paste to here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\f1 2010\cars\(car of your choice)

When you add it to the cars folder just delete the FOV number so it reads "cameras" only. The numbers are only there for reference and to separate them.

FOV adjustment has been updated!

 

[slider916]

Do you happen to know what removes the headshake from cockpit view?
I would like to add this to the files.

Thanks.

Sorry I don't. I've been meaning to look around to see what does. Once you get to 20-30 the bounce really starts to bother you.

I will see if I can figure something out. No guarantees though.
