Multiple camera feeds+monitors Created 17 years ago2007-07-08 10:58:52 UTC by chrispy

OK, I asked a while ago ata different forum about create multiple monitor setups, whereby you have various func_monitors (or monitor textures), each that is fed by a different camera.
If that makes no sense, I am trying to create a security system, with mutliple cameras all feeding to a control room.
I was told that this would require extra coding. Is this true? If so, can anyone point me in the right direction? I can program sufficiently in a few languages including C++
Thanks

You can have as many screens as you want but they'll all show the same thing. Source was only made to have one screen per map. You can however have a set-up where the screen changes to each camera you place but every monitor texture will still show the same thing.

Thats my point. I want lots of different monitors showing lots of different things. Possible with coding?

Well anything is possible I suppose. I can't help you there though so maybe Google for threads made by people who also seek the answer.

Hmm yea I've looked around

Thanks anyway! Oh well!

I should have suggested you make threads asking this question on more talented forums such as:

Interlopers.net
HL2World.com
Snarkpit.net
MapCore - Especially this one.

OK, thats great!
Thanks!
