cam file - which cameras are required?

[LesiU]

I decided to make some cleaning in my cam file for a few cars. I threw out all additional cams. Only left cockpit, nose and swingman cams...but that won't work.
I have message that rFactor stopped responding and after I accept, rF totally turns off.

My question is then, what cameras must be specified in cam file to allow rF work?

Those 3 cams are:

LocalCam=COCKPIT
{
Fov=(31.0, 31.0)
Clear=TRUE
Color=(164, 218, 249)
ClipPlanes=(0.075, 1500.0)
LODMultiplier=(1.0)
Size=(1.000000, 1.0)
Center=(0.5, 0.5)
MipmapLODBias=(1.0)
Flags1=(0)
Flags2=(0)
RadiusLimits=(0.0, 0.0)
OrientationRate=(999.0, 999.0, 999.0)
PositionOffset=(0.0, 0.0, 0.0)
OrientationOffset=(0.0, 0.0, 0.0)
Radius=(0.0)
}
LocalCam=NOSECAM
{
Fov=(45.0, 45.0)
Clear=TRUE
Color=(164, 218, 249)
ClipPlanes=(0.3, 700.0)
LODMultiplier=(1.0)
Size=(1.0, 1.0)
Center=(0.5, 0.5)
MipmapLODBias=(1.0)
Flags1=(0)
Flags2=(0)
RadiusLimits=(0.0, 0.0)
OrientationRate=(360.0, 360.0, 360.0)
OrientationOffset=(0.0107871, 0.0, 0.0)
PositionOffset=(0.0, -0.350725, -2.51015)
Radius=(0.0)
}
LocalCam=SWINGMAN
{
Fov=(35.0, 35.0)
Clear=TRUE
Color=(164, 218, 249)
ClipPlanes=(0.5, 2500.0)
LODMultiplier=(1.0)
Size=(1.0, 1.0)
Center=(0.5, 0.5)
MipmapLODBias=(1.0)
Flags1=(0)
Flags2=(0)
RadiusLimits=(0.0, 0.0)
PositionOffset=(0.0, 0.0, 0.0)
OrientationRate=(1.25, 2.25, 0.0)
OrientationOffset=(-0.2, 0.0, 0.0)
Radius=(5)
}


Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

I'd take a guess at TVCOCKPIT. It seems a pretty standard one.

 

[LesiU]

Nope, that's not the reason...

EDIT:
After some testing, it looks like the only required cam is.... ONBOARD (can be like that, can be ONBOARD001... whatever). So no cockpit, no swingman... just onboard. This one is required. The rest is optional (you still have them though, but on default position which, it looks is at 0.0;0.0;0.0 car's model coordinates). Cockpit cam coordinates are of course defined not in the cam file, but in cockpitinfo file.

Ok, so it works now? With just an ONBOARD defined? (it sounds that way, but you haven't quite said)

 

[LesiU]

Yes, it works with just ONBOARD defined in cam file.

You still have COCKPIT, NOSECAM and SWINGMAN though, but nosecam and swingman on default positions which, it looks, are at 0.0;0.0;0.0 car's model coordinates. Cockpit cam coordinates are of course defined not in the cam file, but in cockpitinfo file.

Is there a way to have more than 1 camera with 'cockpit'-like graphics? So that the TV camera could be put inside the car and show highly detailed cockpit.
