Hi ! Sorry but with this package file, impossible to modify the values in the videocamera.ini file. It doesn't work. The speed of the camera movement doesn't change. I think it's a big problem for the machinima makers.
Can you resolve this problem ? Thank you and sorry if my english isn't correct, I'm french.

Can you put a link to get the older version please ? Thanks in advance !
PS: I love your work ! You are a great custom content creator !

I'm sorry, but I don't understand what exactly the problem you're having is.

Do you mean the camera hack does something with the speed of the game? Becuase I'm able to go in both fast forward and slow motion with my hack in. Do you mean that machinima makers go around editing their videocamera.ini files? If so, that's not a good thing to be doing for the very reason I put this into a .package file in the first place. If machinima makers want to edit the package file, that's fine. They'll need to use S3PE to access the file inside, which is just the videocamera.ini in xml form.

(Your English is just fine, btw. :) I'm just not sure what the exact issue is.)

In fact, to get slower, faster, smoother, individual camera movements with the Sims 3, we edit the camera file while in-game.
I simply load the game in windowed mode and I open the VideoCamera.ini file.
I use the ''LerpDuration'' option which permit to control the time it takes to go from point A to point B, when using preset angles.
Then, I save the file and my changes are reflected in-game. Your mod is very useful but with your package file, the changes have no effect in-game.

Can I use S3PE with the game loaded ?

Thank you aikea :)

I have no idea if editing the package would work the way editing the ini did, so unfortunately I can't help with that. Also, I no longer have the edited videocamera.ini I did originally, but I copied the xml info from the package so you (and whoever else) can make your own videocamera.ini to edit on the fly. You can share this with anyone else who wants to do things the old way. :)

Just remove the .package form of the video camera mod, and paste the following into the videocamera.ini like you used to do for the first version of this mod:

;; Speed


[Speed]
Move = 1.0 ;; controls translation in the horizontal plane

Zoom = 30.0
Pitch = 0.003
Yaw = 0.003
Roll = 0.6
MinSpeedHeight = 5 ;; at this or lower height (above ground), speeds are at their minimum

[Deceleration]
Move = 0 ;; fraction of speed left after 1 second of deceleration
Zoom = 0 ;; fraction of speed left after 1 second of deceleration
ZoomStopDistance = 0 ;; controls how far from the zoom limit does zoom speed start to decelerate

MaxRoll = 360.0 ;; degrees
MinPosHeight = 0.1 ;; meters above terrain

[View]
FOV = 45.0 ;; degrees
NearClipDistance = 0.15 ;; warning: decreasing this may result in increased z-fighting

[Misc]
LerpDuration = 2.0 ;; seconds

Great ! Thank you so much for your help :)
