A pack that contains all my camera mods in a single mod, for TSW 4 ONLY at the moment.
Aim is to have a realistic driver's viewpoint.

Best to remove the single AVL mod when using this one, in case you're experiencing issues.
Sorry for the hassle, which only DTG can resolve at the moment.
The BR 110 is finally playable in rain and snow :) Thank you for this mod.
Thanks :) The Brake key is hidden behind the E-brake handle, but that's a price I'm willing to pay, just move the brake handle a little to reach it :D
Yes, excellent compromise. You can also activate it while standing, so no gameplay concerns.
Exactly :)
Awesome mod, any plans to do the ES44c4 from Cajon? The camera sits high and the wipers are small, so when it rains you cant really see infront of you as the wipers dont clear that much.
I'm on it.
There you go. :)
your the best!
Have you made the es44 in horseshoe cab view higher? if not I think the view needs to be higher as it seems too low. thanks
No, if you raise it you'll have a bad visibility in rain or snow. I've actually moved it back a little, but the position is still a bit higher than in my modded Cajon Pass ES44C4. Normally the driver sits about in the middle of the side windows.
It's probably the high control stand and the towered displays in HSC's ES44 that leads to the impression you're too low.
That makes sense. Thanks for the info
Embrace the 13 :) And thank you for making these mods for us all to enjoy and have a better gaming experience.
Haha, was just making sure nothing goes wrong there.
Thanks for appreciating!
Y'all are very welcome, I Fear Not The 13, it's been in my life and my family's life for many years. As well as here again after checking the updates here, just this one mod showed me three updates, with a total of 16 and after clicking each one, I ended up with :)
More updates to go through.
I couldn't add an image to ya reply.
:) Next update is in the pipeline, adding the Class 150 and 158.
I think it will become a bit more quiet then, got all cameras that annoyed me adjusted now.
I Look forward to it, do you have the 187? some tried to give a few touch-ups, but it still looks like ya are sitting on the desk, that is if it can be changed. I tried searching for any that may have given it a once over. https://www.trainsimcommunity.com/search?query=br+187
Nope don't have that one as it is apparently not worth the money.
If it's on sale I might get it for the layers, and certainly include it here if I don't like the default cam.
Yeah, I saw and heard that sometime after getting it. all is good though, figured I would ask.
It will be included in the upcoming patch, got it for €7 in a bundle.
Good job !
Thanks!
is the ICE 3 viewpoint based on the enhancement pack by Nagiphaaa or a bit different? and if I understood it right, if I rename this to be sorted above the enhancement pack, the ICE 3 from KWG will then use the viewport of your mod instead of the EP because it uses that first?
I don't know that EP, all my cameras are based on the latest TSW4 default files, and my own preferences. (Lots of editing, starting the game, closing again, editing, starting the game... :D )
You'll have to try renaming the files yourself, maybe put a "!" in front of the filename of my mod and see if it supersedes your other mod then.
yeah already did that and it worked fine but thanks still. :)
Update for compatibility with today's TSW core and DLC update is in the works, please standby
Mod should then work with TSW3 too, though I cannot test that at the moment.
DTG rolled back their update. Mod still requires a workaround that prevents it from being used on TSW3.
This mod is now fully up to date with the latest DLC patches from DTG. If you are using an older version of the mod, the updated Vectron might not work correctly. Always use the latest version of my mod :)
please share instructions on how to change the location of the cameras in the cockpit
Join the TSC Discord - I won't do a tutorial here :)
idk why u keep updating this every few days its starting to get to the point of having to get rid of this mod because of it i feel its not worth using
"idk"? See the changelog. Adding new stuff, staying compatible with DTG's updates.
You don't have to use the mod if updates annoy you for whatever reason.
Btw, next update is coming to stay compatible with the latest DTG Vorarlberg update ;)
yeah not for me sorry as a modder for ATS & ETS2 i dont do every 2 days updates
It's your choice. All you need to do is overwrite the pak, but if that's too much feel free to delete it.
I'm also modding ETS2 (just for my own use though).
Ironically just because modders don't update their mods the Steam forums are full of bug reports that are due to outdated or badly maintained mods. :)
The rotem camera rework was really needed, i was so tired of looking down to setup the cab. Many thanks!
You're welcome.
By request, I've also adjusted the Amfleet Cab Car, will come in the next update. (And the new Blackpool 47)
Great mod!
Can you also do it for the Ge4/4 Rhb?
You can adjust the seat height as you like already on the Ge4/4. :)
When I have T menu with instructions, zooming works too, can you disable that as in Vanilla game?
Btw, nice mod!
No, not possible. That's core game code. And what you are describing has nothing to do with my mod.
Excellent pack, you'de made the ICE1 usable now! Well done for the improvments to all the locos. Is there a way for some trains to not have the adjustments, the 323 and 158 i liked the prevouis cab view. Thanks!
Not really, unless removing the mod temporarily. (or just renaming it by changing the .pak suffix to something else like .bak or .inactive. Or use the Mod Manager available here.
Why do you want those extremely laid back cameras back, making the window view too narrow, instead looking at the whole cab?
The point of the mod is to have a view like you were actually the driver, and the default 323 and 158 don't give me the impression as I feel I can't reach the controls.
If someone doesn't like a particular cabview, that's nothing I can address other than telling you to disable the mod when playing a certain route - as the mod contains 90 cabviews I do not want to upload and maintain each one separately.
Another update was necessary, as I just received a Steam update affecting Edinburgh Glasgow and the 385. Mod updated to v1.27 to reflect the changes.
I found a problem with the 385, windows are almost white and can't see the exterior.
Are you using other mods? The issue you are describing cannot be caused by my mod, as I'm not editing materials, only coordinates.
I tried removing all mods except this and godmode, also removed all ini settings but when this mod is active, the Class 385 has white windows. All the other cabs looks great.
