Cam Op Simulator allows real world camera operators to learn and practice operating a virtual camera using a gamepad (joystick), Nodo Inertia Wheels, or several supported "Mouse Wheels" like Rexy Wheels, Hammerhead Wheels, Blacktek, and Kino Wheels.

A build is one published version of the game's files on a branch. Steam assigns a new build ID every time the developer pushes an update, so this list is the update history of the app. The files inside a build (depot manifests) are only readable with an account that owns the game, which SteamRaw does not have yet, so build contents are not shown.

In Cam Op Simulator v1.18 we've added a new scenario that features an actor walking around a room and sitting and standing at a table. The objective is to track the actor smoothly in a medium shot while anticipating the correct head room. This was a commonly requested exercise by operators. Cheers, Matt
This build of Cam Op Simulator has been updated to Unreal Engine 5.5.2. If everything has gone well there should be no noticeable difference between the last version. However, version 1.15 will be available as a beta branch in case this engine update causes issues. The new map "VFX Super Hero" uses two new "Metahumans/virtual actors" that are more optimized than the previous virtual actors. Hopefully this will allow for scenes with more actors while keeping the performance and frame rate high. Cheers, Matt
Cam Op Simulator 1.15 adds a new "Multi Cam Loop" map. There are multiple cameras that can be operated. You hit to switch between cameras. Switching between "Views" is now in all Maps. The cameras and talent/action will loop forever. Cheers, Matt
In this build we have updated the way you connect the NODO Film Inertia Wheels. Please watch the YouTube video for instructions. There is also a new redesigned Trinity Rig in a new map and a redesigned Heavy Lift rig in a new map. Cheers, Matt
In this build we've introduced "Zoom Lenses" to the majority of the cameras. To change focal length you can press or on the keyboard. The "camera monitor" has been redesigned to improve readability and to display the new "FCL" focal length field. There is a new Trinity inspired mode where you can control the roll and tilt of the camera. The FPV drone now has a control to tilt the FPV camera up and down. Cheers, Matt
Settings Manu In this build we have introduced a new "Settings Menu" that is accessible when you press Escape/Pause in game. In this menu you can adjust the "speed" and direction for mouse, gamepad, and Nodo wheels. Laser Pointer Mode The first Laser Pointer map has you operating a virtual geared head with a laser that can "pop" targets. The targets are on a sideways figure 8 track that you should stay on. Pop all of the targets and you will get an accuracy rating at the end. Geared Head and Dolly The geared head and dolly "Cinematic Shot" map has a simple dolly move where two actors interact
