Update: I am currently working on updating older cameras to the newer codebase and as such they will be removed from the public repo while that happens. Releases that are working will still be available, but these will also be replaced with the most up to date version.
These tools hijack the in-game camera and allow control over the camera's position and rotation. The tools also allow control of the field of view. Some camera implementations have additional features such as the ability to control the game speed.
The tools are built on the Injectable Game Camera System created by Frans Bouma. You can find his patreon with even more tools based upon a new camera system with enhanced features, check it out!
IGCS is written in C++ with some x86/x64 assembler to be able to intercept the location of the 3D camera in the game. The system is initially designed for 64bit hosts as all games are 64bit nowadays, but has been reworked to be used for 32bit games too.
Making a camera for a game takes a lot of my personal free time. This isn't my day job unfortunately! Therefore, if you have used these tools and want to show your appreciation or just a quick thank you then please drop me a message or if you're feeling extra generous, you can head on over to my Ko-Fi.
In the folder Cameras you'll several implementations of the system, adapted for specific games.
To build the code, you need to have VC++ 2015 update 3 or higher, newer cameras need VC++ 2017. Additionally you need to have installed the Windows SDK, at least the windows 8 version. The VC++ installer should install this. The SDK is needed for DirectXMath.h
There's an external dependency on MinHook through a git submodule. This should be downloaded automatically when you clone the repo. The camera uses DirectXMath for the 3D math, which is a self-contained .h file, from the Windows SDK.

Frans has written a long, in-depth article about how to create camera tools and how IGCS works on his blog.
Some camera code uses MinHook by Tsuda Kageyu.
