Screenshot / Camera Options

[Flavid]

Hi, sorry if this has already been covered in a previous thread somewhere in the abyss...

 

Anyway, I was wondering what commands you would use to take a screenshot without the command screen. Also I was wondering if anybody knew what some of the camera options are. I know that you can rotate the camera using cg_camera [degrees]

 

Also is there anyway to zoom out/in etc...

 

Thanks for any help.

The zoom command is cg_thirdpersonrange

 

To take a screenshot by pressing a key enter

bind x screenshot (replace x by the key you want to use).

If you want a screenshot without hud enter bind S "cg_draw2d 0;wait 20;screenshot silent;wait;wait;wait;cg_draw2d 1"

 

Theres also a useful script for controlling the camera. Create a textfile in your base folder and paste this in:

 

// BOF

bind kp_5 "toggle cg_thirdperson;vstr a0;vstr r40"

bind kp_uparrow "vstr closer"

bind kp_downarrow "vstr farther"

bind kp_leftarrow "vstr left"

bind kp_rightarrow "vstr right"

 

set a0 "cg_thirdpersonangle 0;set left vstr a10;set right vstr a350"

set a10 "cg_thirdpersonangle 10;set left vstr a20;set right vstr a0"

Save the file as autoexec.cfg . It uses the numpad keys.
