Description
This tool reimplements Unreal Engine's camera system, offering a wide range of applications such as advanced camera tracking with keyframe-based animation. This add-on is a sub-mod of “Enhanced Dance Animation Player,” as it was originally designed to play dance animations with camera animation. It therefore requires “Enhanced Dance Animation Player” to function properly.

Introduction
Have you noticed that all camera addons in the Gmod Workshop lack a modern standard camera control (Keyframes, hotkey and a path system)? In addition to that, it is also a concern that our "Enhanced Dance Animation Player" does not feature a camera pathing function when playing dance animation. Well that is no longer the case. Here we introduce "Enhanced Camera Controller" that fully address this issue.

Adding "Enhanced Camera Animator" to the Tools, Render Panel

Great God of the Ants, thou hast let the victory prevail!
I hereby name thee the Colonel.

--- Karel Capek - War with the Newts

This addon is available in Arabic, Chinese, French, Japanese, Korean, Spanish and Russian.

VMD to Gmod Script is on Github [github.com], default import scale in this addon using standard MMD camera animation should be [3.6, 3.6, -3.6]



Features
- Importing any custom animation from Blender in .vmd format without restarting the game. (with convertion python script)
- Adjusting fov, vailina filters and RTX-Remix related visual effects (if availiable)
- An advanced keyframe System to customize camera's motion, filter, fov.
- Define complex path using parameterized mathmatic function.
- Save, load system of existing camera path.
- Real-time preview of the camera path.
- Real Time Eye Tracking support.
- Hotkey for quick controls.
- Optimized for RTX-Remix.

Known Issues
- Low rendering performance on low end PCs if the path gets too long.
- Long wait time if a long camera animation is imported.

Please set the "transition to the next frame" to "teleport".

Hi Denia, the Shorekeeper is making improvement to the VMD import part of the program.

If a VMD animation has to do with character dances, it should be imported using:

Hello, after downloading the VMD to Gmod conversion script, I'm unsure how to use it. I've also downloaded Python. Could you please explain how to perform the conversion steps after downloading the script? I'm a complete beginner, so please bear with me.

That's exactly the way you should approach it :) Maybe set the transition to the next frame to "teleport" will help

how can i make the camera hold on a certain frame without needing to duplicate a frame and extending the seconds to next keyframe to max?
