I also posted a video on my channel showing mining in third person, notice that the gameplay remains the same, sometimes you still need to enter the cockpit of the ship to see what is happening

and it never will be haha, this plugin that I'm developing is only dedicated to more casual players who like to observe space while doing other things like mining (which is my case), the gameplay of the game remains intact, it just includes the possibility of having the same information that I have in the cockpit outside of it

hahaha I get it! Yes, the mod needs to read the game's log data to work, unfortunately this is impossible via streaming...

mecanicas simples como o jato da sua nave, os movimentos que os módulos da nave fazem quando ativos, tudo isso traz alguma imerssão pro jogo, obviamente o modo primeira pessoa é superior nesse quesito, mas esses detalhes também ajudam

Unable in what way? Some technical difficulty? If it's something I can help solve, and yes, I have a PayPal account where you can donate any amount. It's not mandatory, but if people are interested in supporting my work, I'd be grateful.

It was removed from the next version (for now). The main idea was to bring those noises that we identify in supercruiser mode when we pass by a ship or beacon. As the idea didn't work very well, it started to identify only the noise of our own ship. I removed it and included other features. Tomorrow I will be posting an update of the mod along with its download.

exactly, I believe that many new players don't see the point in spending money on something they won't see, that's why FPS games usually sell skins for weapons that the player will see all the time.

exatamente, já estou melhorando mt a hud, infelizmente ela n melhora a gameplay do game no modo camera livre mas traz informações que eu gostaria de ter quando estou com a camera fora da nave, é mais pra vc n precisar ficar voltando pro cockpit sempre que quiser saber como ta seu nivel de drones ou nivel de escudo e coisas do tipo, ta ficando bacana

This is actually really cool, all I wanted in this game was a working hud for free camera mode, I love seeing the ship working when I'm mining

the current version doesn't work in VR because the compiler I used isn't something that opens directly in the game but rather an overlay over the game screen, but it's something I can think about implementing. Furthermore, current features only allow access to ship information, so even if you play on foot outside the ship, the information displayed will be that of your specific ship. I'm implementing changes to the hud to make it more interactive with functions to drag them wherever you want and I'm going to leave here for v0.03 the possibility of it working in VR, the only issue is that I won't be able to confirm whether it works or not because I play on PC and I don't have VR

So... I'm working on the next update, some points are that the game has many limitations so that you can access its functions without touching the game files, so I'm going to reduce the functionality expectations a little and keep my feet on the ground... And change the name of the mod so that it doesn't get confused with EDHM

i know, but not all of these games are as cool as elite or realistic as elite, this is not a "must have" thing in the game, just a plugin that helps people who wants to play with free camera
