Roaming camera

Post by CoB4thTEXAS »

How can I, or is there way to fix the camera, say to the top of the commanders hat.

It seems that when the down a hill or uphill the camera stays at that hieght, so I'm always adjusting the camera.

I don't think there is a way. There appears to be about 2 feet of 'gear lash' on the camera mounting mechanism. :) You just have to have your thumb close to the spacebar when riding up a hill.
I can make this march and I will make Georgia howl.

Ah well, though i'd ask just in case I was missing something. Mouse wheel is what I use for camera, and its getting about that much "gear lash" now! :woohoo:

Thanks Marching Thru Georgia for the fast reply Sir.

You can attach the camera to a unit or a commander via the "FF" key presses (3rd "F" to detach) .This provides very interesting views and perspectives--but still needs mouse wheel to raise or lower cam view for hill climbs/descents etc.

It would be a pretty simple feature to add, having the camera stay level to the ground.

Well, Norb – I really do wish that you would add this feature back into the game.

The other game allowed you to set a Commandheight= , this game needs that same feature. I spend just about the same amount of time fighting the enemy, as I do fighting with the camera height.

This has got to be the biggest complaint I have with the new game, constantly adjusting the camera with every move.

NSD,

Anything yall could do would be great, I liked the way that you could set-up TC2M with just the follow key and the CommandHieght command and that was all it took.

Thanks for submitting this request, Little Powell !

Hopefully this CommandHeight feature, and the 10: 1 Sprite Ratio – will be included in the next patch – after Norb & Team – gets a little bit of free time.
