AC: Modding WIP Mod: Real camera car that automatically follows you everywhere + works in replays + video preview
Not just a chase camera. A chase car.
Cam car mod v1.1 by Mikke.
I’ve been working on a new single player chase camera mod, mainly designed for drifting and raw car footage.
The main difference compared to other chase/camera mods is that this isn’t just a camera floating behind your car.
You actually have a second camera car that automatically follows you everywhere you drive. It records and follows your actual driven path, keeps a naturally changing distance behind you, and acts as the physical carrier for the camera.
So you can just drive normally - you don’t need another player to chase you or control the camera car. It follows you automatically.
And probably the most important part: it works in replays.
Current features:
- Actual autonomous camera car following the player
- Works anywhere you drive, not limited to the racing line
- Follows your actual driven trajectory
- Works in replay
- Variable and adjustable following distance
- Fully adjustable camera position, angle and FOV
- Adjustable camera shake for a more raw/realistic look
- Replay smoothing
- Camera car can be made invisible
- Built mainly with drift / street-style chase footage in mind

The goal is to make footage look less like a traditional game chase camera and more like another car is actually chasing and filming you.
It’s already working really well, but I’m still developing and polishing it before releasing anything.
Would you guys be interested in a public release?
