Cockpits for land vehicles? Like this?

So, has anyone ever tried setting up a zoom for their vehicle, then setting the zoom amount to something really small, and then using their desired cockpit for the hud? Just wondering. Haven't tried it. Time constraints.

If this has been done, just delete this thread (someone who can)

I don't think vehicle weapons have zoom, but I could be wrong on that. The bigger obstacle is that zoom HUDs are only a texture and not a model.

OH right, their models aren't they. Hmm, screen shot? Or maybe the textures are straight forward and not strangely mapped.

The walkers have zoom and maybe the hail fire. Anyway, a cockpit less 1st person view would be nice for getting those close up shots.

I tried. Doesn't look any good.

I took a picture of the cockpit in forcemode then cut out the windows. just looks to flat and stiff ingame

Still, it could be you're opinion, maybe its better than nothing. Still, a 1st person would be good.

I forget the deal, you can't get the cockpit on a custom vehicle unless you use forcemode?

forcemode on any thing ((character, vehicle, turret)) will force them into 1st person.

1st person for vehicles still works. Just no controls/options for 1st person in a turret/vehicle
