Cockpit Camera in MFC Pane

This is a simple example illustrating how to create a cockpit camera (showing the cockpit of the controlled entity) in an MFC pane. File:CustomCamera.rar

Main highlights:
• Creating a normal extension project
• Adding a pane based on a dialog
• Wiring up a Start/End methods to the dialog for initialization and cleanup, based on the extension lifecycle
• Adding a picturebox control as a place holder for the viewport
• Creating the camera based on the viewport and the root AGI handle for the specific console
• Setting camera relative position, much like a preset view (in meters)
• Rendering the camera as a response to the event. The event is published by the engine and is signaling when is the appropriate time to render.
