Title: $Closeup_Zoom
Post by: mjn.mixael on November 28, 2010, 03:24:56 pm

Would it be possible to get "$Closeup_Zoom:" for weapon tech models?

It would make getting rid of this clipping issue so much easier!

Change the model viewpos? I don't think we have a similar setting on the secondary weapons that render with model...

eh? I'm not really sure what that means.

I've been trying to fix my primary weapon models so that they don't clip the edge (like in the screen above). I have scaled them up, down... all over the place. I even imported a missile model from FSPort, matched its size and tried that in-game. It STILL clipped. Someone told me to give it a different zoom value until we realized that flag only works for ship models.

I figured either the same flag or something similar where I can set a view distance for the tech room weapons would be very helpful.

IIRC, many of my missile HTLs also clip in weapon select.

It's currently being worked on by yours truly. I had to request some assistance on it though, but since it ties in with the way that icons/anims are displayed in the Loadout screen, it will probably be a part of your other request for being able to force Icons when displaying models.

Awesome :) I was just looking at that thread before actually, good to know it's not been forgotten either.

Not forgotten, just a little tangled up for me to easily figure out. No worries though, it will get done, just not precisely sure when.

I'll PM you and Mjn both when I have something to test though so that you don't miss it.
