Dashcam V 2.2.0

(27 reviews)

6 Screenshots

dEzHZ9f.png

Dashcam V is a RageHook plugin that simulates emergency vehicle dashcams used in real life.

Note: An unfortunate downside to the method of centering the camera is that you cannot freely rotate it. In terms of immersion, however, it makes sense because most dashcams do not rotate. In light of this, the dashcam no longer replaces the first person vehicle view, so you can use it whenever you desire.

Features
- Grayscale filter: looks like the department's on a tight budget
- Two layouts: a regular dashcam layout and a remake of Sniper296's IVDashCam layout
- Remote view: view your vehicle's dashcam while on foot by pressing Ctrl + E or the Left Thumbstick + Left Shoulder
- Dynamic unit numbers
- Configurable settings: use the .ini file to adjust the following...
    - Unit number/name
    - Department name/colour/logo
    - Imperial/metric
    - Date format
    - Layout style
    - Remote view controls (both gamepad and keyboard)
    - Grayscale filter

Installation
1. Download & install the latest RagePluginHook from http://ragepluginhook.net/Downloads.aspx if you haven't already.
2. Pick a folder. If you like the vanilla agencies, pick lore-friendly. Otherwise, pick real agencies.
3. Drag & drop "DashcamV.dll" and "DashcamV.ini" into the Plugins folder of your GTA V directory.
4. Using OpenIV, place the logos.ytd in update\update.rpf\x64\textures\script_txds.rpf (use your mods folder if you have it).
Find and open the file "startup.rphs". Once you open the file, start a new line and put the following...

LoadPlugin "DashcamV.dll"

This will make the modification automatically load when you start the game. If you do not want the modification to automatically load, launch the game and press F4. Once you see a panel, put in what you see above.

Known Bugs
- When entering a vehicle that you left on dashcam view, your view will reset

I found out how to fix it,it is a problem with ingame time being at the 0th month. Go download Enhanced native trainer, then ingame open up the trainer, go to Time and then skip days until the date is something like 01.01.2014.

Oups and forgot to add, @PieRGud, you might want to set the date to an valid day when you initialize the script to fix that bug.

@BeaTzZ

Yeah I changed the code so it gets the time directly through the game rather than through RPH's methods. That seemed to fix it too because I don't really need the game's month, just the time.

I'll update the mod very soon.

@PieRGud would it be possible to add the flashing * stars in the american view like shown on tv to really make it realistic?

I don't know if this is possible or not just wondering if you knew how to do this.

as you have already accomplished so much of this I didn't know if you could do this or not

either way awesome mod it actually makes it realistic.

Hey so with all of the new vehicle models coming out the dash cam doesnt work on a few of the newer models. Would it be possible to add an ini file to raise and lower the dashcam?

I made it relatively simple to change the logos to whatever you'd like! Just go to update/update.rpf/x64/textures/script_txds.rpf/logos.ytd and replace the logos. Make sure it's the same size though and replace the _bw counterpart as well.

@vladimir850 Can you post your DashcamV.ini file here? This error usually occurs when the "offset" value in the .ini is in an incorrect format.

I think there is a problem with the newest version. The camera is up in the air. Doesn't matter which car i use. So i tested the older version (2.0). It works perfect. Pls patch this in the next update :)
