Walk and Follow?

Active Camera?

Ok, who's got a camera add-on?

What do you think of it?

Which one do you guys like best? Which one has the best user interface and is easy to use?

I am really looking for a camera tool that will allow me to take movies from "odd" angles in follow mode on the plane (for example a cam on top of the vertical-stab or a cam under the wing root). Something that could simulate what a real-life camera would look like if you could attach one to the outside of a plane.

Thnx!

Soinds like a good approach to add one more bit of realism to a simpit.... the camera view that is avaiable in some "glass" units.   Wink

The program You're looking for is Walk and Follow by Igfly..

The effect can sometimes be achieved with f1view which is freeware if the plane is fully modelled in the VC mode..

The freeware F1 View is my favorite camera choice. I bought Active Camera a while ago but recently un-installed it. It was $15 down the drain, but I preferred the freeware F1 View 8) 8)

I like Active Camera.  I havnt tried walk and follow, but it seemed like a pretty expensive price tag.  Only thing i didnt like about active camera really was its registration, but other than that, its pretty good...
 

Cheers,
RB
