Zoom-in without HUDs

Post by [RS]Chaos »

Hi,

I like to create videos in-game, and I'm tryinte to make some videos in Project Reality.
There is a kit called "camera" which allows you to zoom-in and get some cool angles.
Although, this kit is only retrievable while hosting a local server and not on public one. (as you may allready know...)

Now, I've tried achieve this zooming effect without the camera-kit by for example changing certain conf-files to change the FOV, the "widescreenfixer" and several different console-commands with no success.

Is there any workaround to get this "zoom"-feature in PR for videomaking on public servers? Maybe it's not possible at all?
I hope you understand what I'm looking for.

Thank you for reading and I hope anyone can help me :)

You'll have to arrange for the server admins to spawn a camera kit for you. Using a zoom feature on a public server would otherwise get you banned for cheating if it gets noticed, because obviously, noone would know for sure whether you just record things or increase the zoom level of some weapons that normally don't come with scopes.

Wait, there's already a camera kit or did I read this incorrectly...

Oh, I see.

Is it possible to modify battlerecorder's FOV?
That would certainly not hurt anyone since it's only a replay and could even be done offline.
