May 23, 2023 - Updated to make HUD mod, only so users could retitle it. It cannot operate if delinked, relinked or linked to other objects.
Basic HUD that will allow you to save/recall 8 different camera position & rotation combinations.
Saving/Recalling also chats the global pos and rot at least once per attach session.
Button Layout:
Grey/Yellow border - Resets camera.
Top row numbers - Change camera pos & rot to what is saved in each file.
Bottom row numbers - Save current camera pos & rot or clear existing data.
Top row numbers light red when data stored matches to the region you're in.
Active camera angle highlights the file number used in yellow.
Arrows - Show/Hide HUD (space savings on left or right side of screen)
Note - If you are sitting or have manually focused your camera, then the camera may not move to any recalled pos & rot. You may have to use controls or the ESC key to force this.
Caveats:
Cannot store cam pos if it is outside region.
Cannot recall cam setting in a region different than where it was saved.
Cannot be used in mouselook.
Typical Use Cases:
Save camera angles for a photo booth.
Save camera angles for commonly visited regions.
- Save/Recall up to 8 cam pos/rot settings.
Thank you so much!
What an amazing gift, very useful. Thank you!
use it all the time, constantly have it bookmarked
the only thing i could possibly ask for in addition is clear buttons with little toasts that confirm you want to clear them, but the toast menus are fine as they are too!
Works like a charm!
Thanks. Only wish I would have is to enable commands e.g. /cam1 or something. Thanks for the great working little hud tool UwU
This is the best thing since sliced bread!
I am using this hud to save my camera angles and heights so I can consistently photograph the same place for consecutive shots (think like stop animation), and it is fantastic! The hud remembers my views consistently even when logging out and staying out for a day or more before coming back in again. I have never encountered anything in SL that was as unbuggy as this is, it's fantastic!
