If you want to make something like the true broadcast camera, you have to do much more than rename a few functions in the FOV scripts You have to tell the game to stop moving the camera, calculate the angle between the puck and the camera and come up with a good FOV algorithm. Upcoming versions will add more functions to make this sort of thing easier.

Huh. When I read the title of this I thought you were coming up with a script to automatically rotate the camera every period so the player-controlled team will always shoot up, like the Xbox/PS4 games do. That way you wouldn't have to go into the settings before every game to change the camera to home team always up or down. But having a true broadcast camera would be just as cool. Incredible that it took until NHL 13 for EA to finally implement it.

I love that the camera stays in one place and you have to attack to both directions. Sadly, my installation is a little bit corrupted and I have this problem that camera automatically changes to attack always up or down. It depends which one I choose from settings.

Basically, up and down settings are working but also the 3rd option returns the up or down option when I play. :( Only way to fix this is to install the game again but for now, I don't want to.

I'm going to work on overhauling this setting since it has always had problems.

I'm trying to use FOV.

But when I use F10 or F12 in a game all I get are Offense and defense strategies.

How do I use FOV?

What key do I use?

On the launcher I have F10 set but that doesn't seem to work.

Or do I use it outside an actual game?

Thanks.

Page up and Page down buttons change FOV on the fly.

Now the camera follows the puck so that the camera view is centered around where the puck is.

Is there a way so that I can have the camera follow a position/player (e.g. Left wing player on Team A) rather than on the puck?

So if the player is at centre ice and the puck is near the goalie the camera will stay on the player near centre ice.

Thanks
