Observer Camera Tool B1

More easily create perfect spectator cameras

This tool allows you to more easily place spectator cameras in your map through fetching positions in-game.

In a source game noclip to where you would like a spectator camera and use the command getpos, in the console there will be an output which looks like setpos x y z;setang x y z copy the console which contains that text and paste it into the input at the top (you don't have to be exact, that text just needs to be somewhere in the paste)

Once you have the cameras you want click the download button and an observer_points.vmf will be downloaded, this contains the observer points. Open that file in Hammer and select the group of observer points (they are grouped already), copy, and in your map use Paste Special [Edit Paste Special... Ok] and the cameras are now perfectly in position.

You can set an observer to be the welcome point which is the first view players joining the map will see, enable/disable at start, set as summary which will be shown at the end of the map while showing final scores. Order of cameras in this list will be the order that they will be shown in-game, change the order with the arrows on the right.

Sessions are saved automatically, you can close this page and when you come back you can continue off from where you were. You can click the replace button and paste in another setpos...setang to replace that camera.

This tool is based on Idolon's Observer Camera Tool
