Building Better Binoculars

Projects that alter game functions but do not include new maps belong here.
Forum rules
The Projects forums are only for projects. If you are asking questions about a project, either find that project's thread, or start a thread in the General section instead.

Got a cool project idea but nothing else? Put it in the project ideas thread instead!

Projects for any Doom-based engine (especially 3DGE) are perfectly acceptable here too.

Please read the full rules for more details.

Building Better Binoculars

Post by Hey Doomer »

Since DoomGuy has a helmet with a visor that includes a HUD, it makes sense that such a visor would have a few more perks, such as an automatic zoom when scanning for enemies. This is my take on that called SmartZoom.

Screenshots:
Spoiler:
Top shows a normal view in E1M1. Once SmartZoom detects a target, it zooms as shown at bottom. These options are controlled in the Settings menu, including the minimum distance to trigger a zoom (that also determines the zoom factor), magnification factor (multiplied by the calculated zoom factor), and how often it should scan. The zoom remains in effect until the player or target moves.

Now at v1.0
