set-camera-host - Need coder's opinion
Please read this

I need a coder's opinion on the questions raised in the first post

"When you work with water, you have to know and respect it. When you labour to subdue it, you have to understand that one day it may rise up and turn all your labours into nothing. For what is water, which seeks to make all things level, which has no taste or colour of its own, but a liquid form of Nothing?" - Graham Swift, Waterland

Why are you running RC2?
STRONGTEA. Why can't the x86 be sane?

Well, RC3 presumably, as that's closer to the real, final 3.6.10 release than RC2.

(Though it seems to have gone a bit quiet - is there going to be an RC4, or is RC3 going straight to release?)

Re: set-camera-host - Need coder's opinion
They're quite close to a 3.6.10 release but work is also charging ahead on 3.6.11.

Re: set-camera-host - Need coder's opinion
to play "The Apocalypse: Vega" I've got myself this nightly build: "fs2_open_3_6_11r-20090713_r5434.exe"

does still not work as advertised.... using set-camera-host still give you just the perspective from the center of the model but thats it (eg. but not from the center of the weapons subsystem)

I've added new pictures to the original threat that display the camera view-point plus the sexps needed to create them...

Re: set-camera-host - Need coder's opinion
As far as I can see nothing is there to do to resolve this problem but to put it into Mantis...
I've checked and found no corresponding issue so I'll make one (with screens and missions and all)


EDIT - Done; Mantis Issue #0001971
