Our Modpack includes the GCam camera utility, accessible through Potato Spectator when you die. This gives you camera options you don't have in the normal spectator mode.
Written highlight of the basics
- Access GCam through the "Open GCam" button in spectator (defunct feature, may be readded)
- Open & Close the GCam interface with "L"
- The three different modes are:
- Follow: Holds the camera in position relative to the selected unit while ignoring its rotation
- Behind: Holds the camera in position relative to the selected unit while copying its orientation
- Focus: Haven't quite figured this out yet
- For following infantry, start with only "Follow" mode enabled. As infantry tend to rotate a lot, "Behind" can be very frenetic and hard-to-follow.
- For vehicles, start with "Follow" and "Behind" modes. This gives you a much smoother camera.
- To exit Gcam, open the GCam interface with "L" (if necessary) and click "Close GCam." This returns you to Potato Spectator, and you can navigate back to the action as needed.
