Question Is there a Camera MFD for 100830 P1

[BenSisko]

I repeatedly get a CTD in Win 10 when activating Camera MFD 0.12. I'd noted this previously in Win 7. Is there a camera add-on that works in 100830 P1?

 

[JMW]

Have you tried any/all of these?

Here is a beta add-on for Camera MFD in Orbiter 2006. I haven't tested this with 2010-P1.

Thanks JMW and soumya-8974. I'm having problems with the Camera MFD 0.12 Beta. I should have been more clear in my post.

JMW, I searched Camera MFD and got this https://www.orbithangar.com/search.php?query=Camera+mfd&submit.x=8&submit.y=12 I'd looked at them and the 0.12 Beta seemed the best at the time. I'll check these out. Thanks for your help!

JMW, a quick follow up. I looked at the MFD's in the link. Couldn't get CameraView or Fly-By (as a static external view) to install in 100830. The two ISS related cameras are external animated or illuminated eye-candy without video. The HD Docking camera and Camera MFD are for 160828, so no joy. Thanks for the suggestions :tiphat:

One thing I should say that the tiphat emoji (and most of other emojis you could find in nostalgic Orbiter Forum) is lost. Use ? instead.

Weird. in 2010 d3d9 I couldn't get it to open in the mfd. In non d3d9 it works.
Here are the logs on the left is the d3d9. It mentions the CameraMFD not loading

It is probably because the 2006 Camera MFD is never tested with Orbiter 2010 and D3D9. @Abdullah Radwan should develop a Camera MFD for Orbiter 2010.

Thanks. I emailed him. Weird that for 2016 both d3d9 and non d3d9 it works.

wrong mfd. I tested this one:

CameraMFD 0.12 Beta - Orbit Hangar Mods

maybe it only works with 2016. I will try another one

Funny soumya-8974, in 2010 gattispilot and I were using Camera MFD 0.12 Beta in 100830 P1 with our Moonbase Alpha add-on. We were running Win XP then and had no issues. We used Camera MFD 0.12 Beta again in 2014 and I posted on intermittent random CTD's back when gattispilot and I were developing The World of Oblivion add-on. We used it to coordinate landing on the skypads from the cockpit without having to "F1" for an external view. It seemed to run better under Win XP than WIn 7 and worse under Win 10. I looked at Abdullah Radwan's Camera MFD and it appears remarkably similar to Camera MFD 0.12 Beta in signage and function. It's like Camera MFD 0.12 Beta ported to run in Orbiter 160828. It would be great if Abdullah Radwan made a version for 100830 P1. I wouldn't be surprised if many Orbinauts that have constructed custom bases still run 100830 P1 due to the cumbersome tasks necessary flatten surfaces in 160828.

Gattispilot, as to other Camera MFD's. I don't think there are any for 100830 P1. I did this search a few weeks ago https://www.orbithangar.com/search.php?query=Camera and reviewed all the items in the result. I couldn't get CameraView or Fly-By (as a static external view) to install in 100830. The two ISS related cameras are external animated or illuminated eye-candy without video. The HD Docking camera and Camera MFD are for 160828.

[BenSisko]

Awww yeah. Thanks Abdullah!

 

[Abdullah Radwan]

I am working on a new version, which will have new features and improvements. It will be compiled for both 2016 and 2010. Standby!
It will work on D3D9 client only of course, as the current CameraMFD.

 

[BenSisko]

Any chance of a non-D3D9 variant??

Sadly no. The cameras depend on D3D9 custom cameras features, so they can't be used on the default rendering engine.

I think the old camera mfd still works in orbiter 2010 non D3d? but it’s been awhile since I have used it.

OK. And again, many thanks!

Yeah, but I've been getting these repeated CTD's when I activate Camera MFD 0.12 Beta in simulation with nothing in the log. That's why I was wondering if there was a another camera MFD I could use.

I think the camera mfd is picky about certain modules being loaded either ahead of it or behind it try some different combinations or just try camera mfd and see if it works on it’s own and then test with other modules or mfds.
