Cinematic Views

As seen in this screenshot from the trailer will we be able to have fixed cameras around the aircraft. I have a fair amount of experience with the 'RoF' type of cameras and features, but there has never been an option to put the camera in any fixed position. Any suggestions?

War Thunder has something like that, but the view controls are a bit clunky in the replay mode for that game. It would be pretty cool to have them though.

I already put a thread in the suggestions forums. Maybe you can add this request to mine. Funny though, i pointed out the same exact section of the movie.

Probably because it's one of the best parts

There is already an option to place the camera in a fixed position relative to an aircraft in the RoF mission editor - the External Fixed Camera.

 

Unfortunately, it doesn't work, or at least it doesn't work as you might want:

 

 

External Fixed – camera that looks at a plane (or an object) selected in First Object group. This camera is

fixed at a certain view to a plane and changes position when the plane changes position.

 

It changes position, but doesn't keep a constant angle relative to the subject aircraft. Nor is it available in replays, which is unfortunate.

Yeah I think what we are both looking for is the "Go Pro" view.  What would be nice is a camera that we could place anywhere via the controls and orient it the way we want, and make it fixed so we could get that shot.  This could also be used to place a camera for a gun camera view, though I would like to just have a gun cam selectable by itself.  I can only imagine how awesome a gun cam would look in this game!

YES!  I think one of the best things about a CFS sim is going back and watching a particularly rewarding mission.  I hope the dev team is planning to add some features to really enhance this part of the game:

 

-Multiple Fly-By modes

-Gun Camera Mode

-Tighter Fly-By zoom

-Multiple fixed camera positions

-A more fluid Combat Camera Mode

to be set in stone. I hope we'll have cool multiple cams!

Thanks or this topic, TyphoonOneB. Also I'm personally interested in multiple options for the cameras - as the guy who watches every piece of fan video on the web.

And I'm moving it to the suggestion section where it belongs.

also, a certain shake/blur in the movie when a flying-by planes passes too close would be cool, I think.

Ok thanks, this is the best community involvement in a game I've ever seen

It would be cool to have a option to save mission after u finish it just like in old il2. To keep recording function u cann click any time during the mission and option to save the hole mission after u finish.

I just hade a couple of times gr8 missions in wich i forgote to click record and could have them if there was a option like in old il2. Missions i m tolking about r in rof , but it is same in bos. So adding options like in old il2 would be cool if is possibole. And i agre with more options in camera position to. It would give same of the amezing artists here to make same gr8 movies.
