Lightning Gun Camera (Beta 1)
====================---------

Description:
------------

A Lightning Gun with a camera attached to it. The blue "scope" screen has been replaced with a screen that actually works (in first-person)!

Comments:
---------

The Lightning Gun camera effectively increases the number of polygons on-screen, so it's likely to decrease your frame-rate a little (or a lot). I've included a console command to change the resolution of the camera:

CamDetail n

..where 'n' is a number from 0 to 4 (0=64, 1=128, 2=256, 3=512, 4=1024 pixels wide). For example, type "CamDetail 4" in the console to make the LG Cam use a 1024x640 res display. The camera texture is approximately 60% as high as it is wide. The default level of camera detail is 2 (256x160).

You can also change the camera's FOV angle in-game by using the following command:

CamFOV n

..where 'n' is a number from 5 to 100. 10 is the default (which is about the maximum zoom of the Lightning Gun). Lower FOV angles show less on the LG's screen, so having the FOV angle lower/higher can increase/decrease performance.

NOTE: These console commands will only work while you are holding a Lightning Gun (the version with a camera).

Installation:
-------------

Copy the following files to your UT2004System directory:
psLGCam.u
psLGCam.ucl
psLGCam.int

Usage:
------

Put the "Lightning Gun Camera" mutator in the list to play with the Lightning Gun with a camera attached.
