How do I activate person views?

Entering Ride-Along Mode:
In the vehicle window, look for a small camera icon, usually in the upper left corner.
Click on this icon to enter ride-along mode.
Movement: Use the arrow keys or the W/A/S/D/Z/X keys to move around inside the train.
Changing Views: Use PgUp and PgDn to cycle through different camera perspectives.


This is from the above description:
Different camera positions are added to all objects that have a camera view. Existing views are retained (depending on the setting, they are inserted before or afterwards, or not at all).
The views can be switched with Page Up and Page Down.


This is UG's own list of controls in game
A complete list of ALL keyboard/Mouse controls are listed here.

is it possible to make the camera not to change the position when i'm looking backwards

Fantastic mod. Thank you very much. If I could have a wish to improve it it would be to have a hotkey or key combination to go quickly to views that are cockpit views on track/road. For some reasons, especially on trains the views are getting multiplied by the number of wagons etc and it makes me going through a lot of views before I get to the one I want. But anyway... I really appreciate how your mode is making TF2 beautiful and satisfying

I already know. It's a pity that so many thousands of players no one answered me.
1. click on the vehicle
2. a window with the vehicle appears
3. in this window in the upper left corner there is a small camera
4. you click on this little camera

The mod is wonderful, you can admire every vehicle from every side!!!

This mod uses to work for me then one day it doesn't. When turned on it didn't even show up as an option in the upper left hand corner where it says honk horn and whatnot.
mex21 Oct 27, 2024 @ 3:20am 
Can anyone help me?
I downloaded it, marked it in green and it doesn't work :(
I press Page Up and Down and nothing happens... Please!

@VacuumTube

Happy bunny once more as I can view the game from the cab of any vehicle.. again!
No more camera view drifting to the left for me, as I do believe I've resolved the issue. It would appear that a controller I use (Xbox controller for PC) was the culprit.

When I unplugged it, the camera view returned to normal.
That's to say it is now stable and doesn't drift to the left. It had never done this before as I've said, and I've always left it plugged in.

So all I can think of is that a driver update was the probable cause.


Your mod works fine. As I said I've had a few driver updates loaded over the past week.
I've been away and returned after a while and did numerous updates on my PC.
I'm not trawling through that lot to see if anything amongst those were the cause.
So a simple P&P item was the root problem and cause of my angst.

@VacuumTube I've tried a few other games and it would appear that there's, in all probability, an issue with the mouse settings, because when I removed your mod from a saved game I still had an issue with the camera view drifting to the left. I had to turn off the mouse hardware within the game as it made the mouse pointer disappear, whereas I'd never had to do that previously. So whether that's had an effect or not, or even if there's an underlying issue with my mouse I'm not sure, so I'll be checking it out asap.

thats probably due to the vehicle.
In this mod is an option to insert the general views before those customs from the vehicle.
wabbithunta Sep 12, 2024 @ 10:47am 
This seems to have gone pear shaped. The view from the cab doesn't centre, whereas before it did but now it keeps drifting (for me at least) and it's very noticeable when you go around a bend or a turn.. it keeps drifting left and after a while you're nowhere near the cab but way off to the left

Is there a way to change camera lens like with the camera tool?
g7broxxx Jun 27, 2024 @ 1:05pm 
Thanks for this mod. After installed, if the vehicle permits the cameras i can change the view with the picture button. Works fine!
The Former Jun 19, 2024 @ 6:45pm 
You mean with this mod, I'm supposed to just sit around taking pictures of everything?

Perfect! That's how I play anyway. :) Good mod, thanks for the work.
VacuumTube  [author] Apr 14, 2024 @ 3:23am 
I am not aware of any issue why it should not work
tonyread Apr 12, 2024 @ 9:11am 
Does this still work? I can't find a way to make it work at the moment.
Javalad Mar 7, 2024 @ 12:29am 
This doesn't seem to do anything, do I have to activate it in some way?

how do i use htis?
VacuumTube  [author] Oct 7, 2023 @ 6:09am 
Das mit Wendezügen ist ein altbekanntes Problem für das es bisher leider keine Lösung gibt.
Marco aus Berlin Oct 7, 2023 @ 5:02am 
Gute Mod. Fehlt nur noch die Einstellung, dass man als erste Perspektive immer die in Fahrtrichtung hat. Dann würde mir das wirklich weiterhelfen.
VacuumTube  [author] Jun 8, 2023 @ 2:19am 
hmm dann ändert vielleicht eine andere Mod diese Werte

hat nichts gebracht aber auf anderen maps geht es
VacuumTube  [author] Jun 7, 2023 @ 1:01pm 
@Hieronymus Ja schau mal in den Mod optionen
@Shmeerlubs das geht in der base_config.lua. Der Wert ist aber schon auf 0.5 und es kann Probleme geben wenn der sehr nah bei 0 ist. Musst du mal testen.

wie kann ich die render distance in den fahrtkameras verkürzen? mit vacuumtubes closer rd mod wird nur die distance in kameratool und spielkamera verändert.
Hieronymus Jun 4, 2023 @ 12:37pm 
Gibt es auch eine Option die alle kamera einstellung zB von Mods auf standard bzw deine kamera perspektiven im mod beschränkt?

The views of the people standing on the platform always moves automatically!!!
VacuumTube  [author] Apr 21, 2023 @ 4:28am 
quick fix is to disable seat views

It's an unexpected confusing definition in that mod bb60000_menu.mdl

Mir wurde nichts gemeldet. Ich kann mir die Mod mal anschauen.
Dienstleister31 Mar 17, 2023 @ 1:04pm 
Das Problem mit der Modifikation BB 60000 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2310949326 besteht weiterhin. Der Autor hat dort am 2. Januar geschrieben, dass man den Advanced Camera Views Mod bis zur Problemlösung deaktivieren soll. Weißt du denn generell schon davon?
VacuumTube  [author] Mar 17, 2023 @ 11:50am 
Ich sehe kein Problem?
CliffAMcL Mar 17, 2023 @ 11:14am 
Werter VacuumTube, wirst Du die Mod auf die aktuelle Gameversion updaten? Ich wäre Dir sehr dankbar.
VacuumTube  [author] Mar 12, 2023 @ 3:11pm 
That is for another game lol (Transport Fever1)
I did what I could / what is possible with the mod interface.
Alexander Mar 12, 2023 @ 8:22am 
What is the difference between this and that mode https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1821250712 ? Could you please improve the mod, which will give the first view for people forever - not only due their walking in a pedestrian road, but also if a person goes inside a cityblock/building, or seat in a vehicle; and slso if the chosen view eas saved for absence to push page up, or page down every time.

And, during a person's walking it looks like a pedestrian is drunk; is it possible to fix it?
VacuumTube  [author] Mar 2, 2023 @ 1:59pm 
This is due to the ridiculous fact that the skoda tram (vanilla) contains an error and our mod is fixing it. Nothing to worry about. If there is a message about mods (e.g. pkp ep07) the modauthor should be informed to check his mdl.
gailly.philippe Mar 2, 2023 @ 9:49am 
I have downloaded your mod from Steam Workshop
*2021073822/1 (9) (Advanced Camera Views).

My « stdout.txt » file in my « crash dump » directory reports the following info :
Advanced Camera Views - Delete 0 entry in 'configs[1].blinkingLights1' [res/models/model/vehicle/tram/usa/skoda_10t.mdl].
I have not loaded Skoda vehicle and played up to now in europeen option of the game !
What’s that means ? Is it a mistake ?
I’m not an expert in programming. Can you check, resolde this in case of and let me know.
Thanks.
AJ Meireles Jan 25, 2023 @ 3:14pm 
Nice to know that it only affects vanilla vehicles (mostly as you said). I like using mods anyway. Now what's missing for me is a way to walk as a first person or even third person character. I would love to drive or walk in my routes.
Thanks for the info!
VacuumTube  [author] Jan 21, 2023 @ 2:38am 
It's mostly affecting vanilla vehicles... there is this mod to prevent X-Ray https://www.transportfever.net/filebase/index.php?entry/5021-vanilla-vehicle-kein-r%C3%B6ntgenblick/
AJ Meireles Jan 20, 2023 @ 9:17am 
What's the point of riding inside vehicles when the glass surfaces make most of other vehicles invisible. I really don;t get it... Why would you (Game company) create interiors and completely disregard the invisible glass bug? What? was the game made by humans or a.i.? come on...

This mod used to work for me but I am unable to get it to work anymore.

Crushed Gaming Dec 27, 2022 @ 10:18am 
How do you enable views for people? Whenever I click on a person to view them in first person, it just goes into this annoying cinematic view
