I don't know how, but it still works after 6 years, after which I returned to CE. True, I checked in my local game, not in multiplayer, I haven’t checked there yet.
But you know what I want to say? With all the splendor of the visual interface, which helps to navigate, dock and just cool, the blue blur on the image is very annoying. The eyes are already tired, and this blue haze, imitating cheap cameras of the last century, only makes it worse.

unfortunately it seems all of Sage's mods are abandoned these days, (Definitely don't blame him, considering the crap that's gone on over the years with Keen) but if he ever does resuscitate these, I've got the threads on subscribe :)

Well, I hope it's not...
This was a great mod! Please update if you have the time! :D

Not working anymore, Keens cleaner windows and cleaner camera view are rubbish. Not clean enough. Please please update.

I remember there was a method of extracting the textures and replacing the default camera does anyone remember how to do that and where you put it again ?

Thnx for this one!! made my life a whooole lot easier ;)

@MicaelJM It is not a bug. It happens only when your power momentarily exceeds your maximum. it is well documented behavior. Increase your power output.

sage good job!:steamhappy:

RSobey123 and Shroom - I had the same issue as him. The thing is, I have a remote welder that NEEDS the camera view to be operated, as it has no seats. Before using this mod, it all worked nicely, but when I enable it, every time I accelerate the drone, I get "kicked" out of its camera. As it is a Mini Welder, there just is not enough room for more generators, and as without this mod it was working, I think that it is actually a bug from this mod and not a separate issue that should be fixed on our side (giving it more power).
Also, as this mod aims at only replacing a HUD texture, there is clearly something wrong going on. I know that the way it changes the texture is by replacing the entire camera with a new one (at least that's what I think), so it does not only touch the texture, it replaces the current camera with what should be a copy of it with only its HUD touched, but it seems there's a bit more to it.
Shroom 22 Jun, 2016 @ 7:57pm 
@Rsobey123 that's because your power use temporarily overloaded due to high power draw from something (usually thrusters+gyros, shields, or something else). Equip your ship with more batteries, capacitors and/or reactors.
red234 22 Jun, 2016 @ 6:49pm 
I have a bug that whenever the power on my small ship is overloaded it exits the camera and goes back to cockpit view of player view if using a remote control

Finally i can see
AryxCami 4 Apr, 2016 @ 1:03pm 
@Shadow_CON Press F6 on your keyboard, it will put the camera view back to your character
Jhett 27 Mar, 2016 @ 9:03pm 
Staple this onto my game mods right the goddamn now.

2years old,still working for dedicated servers?
Shadow_CON 24 Jan, 2016 @ 5:08am 
Only working in SP, not on Server HELP :(
And how do i exit only cam when in remote control and not all. pressing t exits cam and remote control i want just cam exit on drone -.-
Amerikanovich 27 Nov, 2015 @ 2:34pm 
Also getting the camera shut off bug when reactors/batteries are overloaded, happens to a lot of other overlay mods too, not sure what's causing it, shame, I love how this one looks.
Lt_Stash 22 Oct, 2015 @ 10:45pm 
Hey Sage the overlay is messing with LOD in DX11. Asteroids are invisible unless you are right next to them and even then you can still see through parts
smo_q2 8 Oct, 2015 @ 3:39am 
I forgot to mention that this does not happen if I turn the mod off. It seems like either the modded cameras take more energy, or change the priority of the systems that should receive power if reactors get overloaded.

I'm pretty new to Space Engineers, so don't shoot at me if I speak heresy here... I'm just speculating... :)
smo_q2 7 Oct, 2015 @ 1:40pm 
The camera stops turns off if your ship reactors become overloaded. This is the only mod I have - installed it in an already created survival world.
Vash 4 Oct, 2015 @ 1:09am 
Perfect, why would you be able to build a space ship but have a static jumbled mess on a simple camera? lol love this mod
Sationas 22 Sep, 2015 @ 8:41am 
Subed, rated, fav. One of the "must have" mods.
Honor Guard 21 Aug, 2015 @ 5:05pm 
how do i perma install this?
Kale_Mercer 19 Jul, 2015 @ 9:07am 
Thanks sage, something to look in to if you can is extending the zoom of the cammeras. Just an idea.
Smart Bear 30 Jun, 2015 @ 9:29am 
Чёт я не заметил раздницы под ДХ11
HossHDX 20 Jun, 2015 @ 11:32pm 
Awesome mod :) crystal clear view, hightly recommended :)
High Ground 1 Jun, 2015 @ 11:39pm 
Noticed a little fog in DX11
draeath 31 May, 2015 @ 4:53pm 
Yes, works fine in DX11.
dRuPpI 29 May, 2015 @ 4:33am 
has it DX11 too?
Tarka 29 May, 2015 @ 4:08am 
Sweet mod. Its the only one I always use (or use at all). Is this DirectX11 compatible yet?
Mike Loeven 28 May, 2015 @ 9:13am 
Can you make an alternate version of this mod with a targeting reticule for combat drones ?
Hyperspeed1313 21 May, 2015 @ 8:01pm 
I would love to see the whole Space Engineers UI with this theme. The one Keen uses is too 90s and just doesn't work well.
ODBWolf 21 May, 2015 @ 4:30pm 
How hard is it to make a Mod?
Delta 0DST 13 Apr, 2015 @ 8:43pm 
yay it works now! :D:
Latemail 12 Apr, 2015 @ 7:37am 
superb Mod - works great for me!!! it would be perfect if you will make a tutorial, how to create such an overlay and put it into a Mod ..... maybe you have the time and like to share your knowledge ;-) THX anyway
Honor Guard 4 Apr, 2015 @ 12:20am 
Thank GOODNESS,i love it
MathijsAlk 27 Mar, 2015 @ 10:08am 
something i noticed, i was playing around with the camara overlay and i lost the original texture (there was no overlay at al in the folder). When i enabled this mod in my survival world it worked i didn't have to do anything. and when i disable the mod it goes back to what i had before (no overlay at all).
aNImosity^ 23 Mar, 2015 @ 12:43pm 
Been wanting a mod for this for ages now but had heard this one didn't work, never bothered to try it till now but it works perfectly. No longer will i need to drown my mining drones in spotlights to see anything through the camera hud.
Terra 15 Mar, 2015 @ 4:22pm 
SAGE, IT WORKS NOW
Hellsteel1974 8 Mar, 2015 @ 5:46pm 
I can confirm as well that right now I have this camera overlay mod installed in my SE from Workshop and I did nothing but subscribe it as usual. Regular camera's are now clear pictured with the blueish lines/crosses around the screen appearing.
Maybe earlier update borked it but now the latest update made it work again?
elementalblaze79 8 Mar, 2015 @ 2:00pm 
@EctoSage YAA! It works now! Not sure if you did something or the devs but I'm just happy that it now works again! I sure do like this camera overlay! Also on a side note great work on your YouTube channel & when are you going to add more SE video content!?
Irn Mon 8 Mar, 2015 @ 6:40am 
Works fine for me. Subscribed and was able to use it already. No manual install needed. Thanks!
Lighted Shadows 7 Mar, 2015 @ 9:24pm 
Works fine on dedicated server as of 3/8/2015
