Nice, now I'm going to spend the next few hours figuring out how to do it myself haha

 

[smrdibaba]

Some help will be nice,how 2 enable.

 

[Yawama]

The antennas are visible in chase cam, so there must be a value somewhere in the chase cam that enables antennas. Trying to find it now.

yea nice,,,,,

 

[Yawama]

In that thread he posted he mentioned that he got the antennas back by using the F1 2010 camera.xml files with F1 2011

Thanks amfion, gives me a hint on where to start.

 

[smrdibaba]

O yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa....just replace new cameras with old one,,,from f1 2010.....nice one,,,even thy moving

 

[smrdibaba]

And yes,,,thanks Amfion

I found the line to enable antennas

For every camera, there is this line:
<Parameter name="highResInterior" type="bool" value="true" />

If you change it to
<Parameter name="highResInterior" type="bool" value="false" />


You should get antennas back. I tested it with the Red Bull t-cam, it works. I don't know any adverse effects with disabling highresinterior, I'll check it out. I couldn't have found it without Amfion's tips, thank you very much

 

[Yawama]

Did a comparison with highresinterior enabled and disabled. My verdict: highresinterior disabled = ugly cockpit, at least in DX9:

Enabled:

Disabled:

Rather go without the antennas myself if this is the choice we have to make. Hopefully someone can find a better solution.

Edit: I shouldn't have double posted, sorry.

 

[pezuco]

In what file is that parameter?.

thanks!

 

[Yawama]

cameras.xml in the F1 2011\cars\name of team folder.

You'll need fergo binxml converter to convert the xml to a text file first.

thanks!!!

Good work!
Really, adverse effects = ugly cockpit, in DX11, too. =(

Would love to see the antennas back with the T-Cam at least with no drop in cockpit quality. The POV is high enough for them.

Antena in TV Pod camera (help)

Hi can anyone tell me what files and how do i need to edit to be able to see antena from TV Pod camera.

 

[Engage]

I think i read a post somwere, were the antena wasnt added for some reason,
I could be wrong though

 

[Christopher Brown]

You need to use the low-res cockpit files.
I think to do this you simply have to rename high-res to low-res, and rename low-res to high-res.
