How Can I Do This?

[Ghost_Ellis]

I would like to create a wall that will display what an Aiming or Moving Camera is looking at.

Is there any way to do this?

The end result would be a room with a tv in it, but the player's controls move the character on screen and or the map around the character on screen, creating the illusion of actual 2d screen space

or a monitor showing and actual live security cam of another area

See the ZDoom wiki for Camera, etc.

Something like this?

Player-controlled cameras might be a little trickier, but a fixed camera is certainly doable.

No, not at all like that. I want a room, with a tv in it, that shows a live feed

Super easy, barely an inconvenience.

 

Use SetCameraToTexture .

Some of the other effects would probably require some input scripting which I'm not extremely familiar with, there are quite a few 3rd person mods that do this that you might check out and see how they did it.
