Description
Vehicle Cam 0.1 beta for GTA3
Created by rmws.


Introduction
This mod adds ability to move camera while driving any vehicle (except Train and RC Buggy) using your mouse and keyboard controls. Keep in mind that this is a beta version, so do not be surprised if you notice some bugs.

I'm thinking about adding a few more features later - increasing camera distance if you are driving faster and camera shake when a fast car reaches its maximum speed.


Requirements
GTA III Custom Scripts Engine (CLEO)
GTA3 v1.0 or v1.1 (Steam and Mac versions are not supported)


Installation
Paste vehcam.cs to CLEO folder which is in GTA3 installation directory.


Known bugs
# Look behind in car uses on foot control.
# Drive-by shooting cannot be performed unless you restore default vehicle camera (Press Change camera button).
# Weapon crossair appears on screen when you change radio stations.
# Camera might freeze after some mission cut-scenes.
# Exit your vehicle first if you want to restart or load other savegame, because on foot camera will be adjusted.

The ideal option to avoid these bugs would be forcing GTA3 to use replay camera while driving a car. Replay camera distance and height is calculated automatically and you cannot move mouse from the center to bottom. My method enables on foot camera in car and all values are calculated by hand for most vehicles which makes the code unnecessarily heavy. Sadly, changing one byte from 0 to 1 is not enough to enable replay cam. The whole creplay section is quite tricky and I haven't figured out many things yet.
