Deployable Cameras

Summary

Place cameras on walls, trees and ceilings and watch them live on a handheld tablet. Look around, zoom, switch feeds, and use night vision.

Description

** PRE-RELEASE - TESTED ON LOCAL MP **

Place a camera, walk away, watch it on your tablet.

- Camera: place it like an explosive charge on a wall, tree or ceiling. Pick it up again any time. It goes offline when shot.
- Tablet: shows the cameras you placed while carrying it. Press I, or take the tablet out.
- Feed: look around, zoom, switch between cameras.
- Night vision: green image with automatic gain and an infrared light only the viewer sees.

CONTROLS

WHERE
US, USSR and FIA arsenals: camera under explosives, tablet under equipment. Game Master: both under Systems.

OTHER MODS
No other mods required. The feed is drawn as its own picture and leaves your own view alone, so night vision mods (NV-System, RHS, WCS) keep working. While a feed is open only its own keys and voice chat respond.

MULTIPLAYER
Needs the mod on the server and on every client. Tested on a dedicated server with a connected player and as the host of a player-hosted game. A camera far away from you still shows the soldiers and vehicles around it.
