Need a Hot Fix to issue for Arma 3 1.66 . Operator of the UAV - There is no image from the shooter's camera.
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

There are changes in the version of RC 1.66.
When you use the UAV, the PIP window of the camera of the UAV broadcasts the image from the pilot's camera. Hasn't found an opportunity to switch broadcasting for PIP from with the pilot chamber to chamber arrow.
This problem occurs in the control of all types of UAV.

P.S.
On version 1.64, the PIP window of the camera of the UAV broadcasts the image from the shooter's camera.
Maybe of course the switch of the camera will find application in some scenes. Didn't think of need of this function for PIP yet.
My priority remains on the image from the shooter's camera.
The image of the camera of the shooter in PIP is caused by strategic application in a game.

Why in CR versions appear problems there where there were no problems in DEV of the version?

Changes for release 1.66 will be?

What under this ticket? There will be a correction for it. It breaks use of monitoring in the PIP screen. Tactical monitoring in PIP it isn't possible. Monitoring is possible only in the control panel of the UAV or in control of the camera of the UAV.
It breaks a possibility of performance of a task and simultaneous monitoring of a situation.

Hello,

would you mind uploading a simple repro mission or a video demonstrating the issue?

I guess you are using the Live Feed modules to do this correct?

Lex added a comment.EditedDec 2 2016, 2:45 PM

No Mission.
This editor, selecting drone operator.
I will try in the evening. It was stored in a sample editor, from the past. Maybe this problem.
But it seems I have tried and the new selection.
Enable the PIP screen on the person, always broadcast from the pilot chamber.

Repro:
Empty map.
Place player as UAV Operator.
Preview.
Assemble Darter.
Take controls.
Take off.
Take turret controls.
Turn the turret somewhere.
Release controls.
Activate "AV Camera".

The PiP shows driver view, not gunner.

Ah, I see, thanks :)

Are you able to observe this only on Darter or other UAVs as well?

All UAV, red, blue, and green fractions.
And further.
Fixed designator, and all, with no pilot - video does not transmit to the PIP.

I can confirm this in current stable build

Type: Public
Build: Stable
Version: 1.66.139586
Allocator: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 3\dll\tbb4malloc_bi.dll

A user on steam has found this workaround, but it only works where 3rd person is enabled.

Have the same issue here, you can temporary fix it by first locking on something (Ctrl+t) then pressing 2xTAB to toggle the AV camera, then you go to "take gunner controls" or something and then press right mouse button (you need to press to see the camera itself and press again to go to 3rd person again, then just go back to your character, the camera will work... But if you press anything that closes the camera window it will go back to the driver camera. Strange thing that i dont see much people complaining about this... If you find a solution, let me know

I'm happy to do any further testing if needed.

Can we expect a fix in any upcoming versions?
Thanks

Lex added a comment.Mar 17 2017, 11:47 AM
