The second installment in my Flycam series. This tool allows you to create 360 Fly-Around Videos/Images or Panorama images. See below for examples:

To create a 360 Fly-Around:

1. Go into Camera Mode (debug_camera_load)
2. Set the Center Point by going anywhere on the map where you want your Center Point to be at. This will be the point where you will be looking at all the time during the 360 Fly-Around.
3. Set the Radius Point. This will be the outer point that determines the radius.
4. Optionally you can define the delay time (read: speed) between those points.
5. Click the "360" button.

To create a Panorama Picture:

1. Go into Camera Mode (debug_camera_load)
2. Set the Center Point by going anywhere on the map where you want your Center Point to be at. This will be the Center Point from where your camera turns 360 degrees. The angle of looking is also considered.
3. Set the number of steps to skip. You will end up with 360 divided number of steps = total images.
4. Set the delay time between each of those images. If you use Fraps you can make it sync with the application by going to the "Screenshots" tab in Fraps and enable "Repeat screen capture every # seconds". For instance put 2000 into the delay time and 2 seconds in Fraps.
5. Click on the "Pano" button and also click your Hotkey button for Fraps for Screenshot capture.

Enjoy.

thanks, but we are using 1.09, so maybe you want to update that, unless I went back in time! GASP, I need to check my xfire!

Or you could downgrade it to work on 1.07... ;)
