    Default Please get rid of the new camera!

    I don't like that the mod has forced the battle camera to have extra zoom; I'm sick of zooming in on my units and instead seeing the sea (under the map), it ruins the immersion ... can you guys change it back, and people who want incredible levels of zoom can just use the dev-camera themselves?

    If not, how do I change this to default?

    Edit line in campaigns\main_rome(or gaul)\scripting.lua "scripting.game_interface:set_zoom_limit(30.0, 0.0001)". Default values are 1.1, 0.8.

    On a side note this is not the battle camera, but the campaign camera and its values should be 1.1 max zoom in WITHOUT diving under the highest mountains / 0.1 which is the lowest possible value. Also 15 is the max value. So 30 / 0.0001 makes no sense hence the max values are 15 / 0.1 anyways. but 15 is too much and dives under the textures of almost every mountain on the map.

    Yeah, I just used the values in that mod. Should have looked at them before but people insisted that it was so great...

    No, that's the campaign zoom, it is not the battle camera.

    Please do not remove the new camera zoom( it does go a touch to far but then if you scroll in with some form of control you can get it exactly where you want it ( perfect for screen shots) ..

    Im glad you added it so now i dont have to use debug camera which just doesnt flow as nicely lol..

    I agree that seeing the water level under the ground is kind of immersion breaking and looks silly, but still , it is better to have that zoom- in option.
    Maybe if it could be edited to zoom in a tiny bit less, so that the water is not visible, but still you don´t have to pay too much attention on how far you zoom in, as normally you have other things to worry about in a battle.

    Don't zoom in as much and your problem is solved. You can thank me later

    Have to agree, found this disconcerting. People would call this as a bug with the game.

    Something I have been wondering is if all that underground water actually affects the performance. Any ideas guys?

    Wanna get rid of the new camera? -> open DeI.pack > camera > delete all camera.txt (3 of them)

    Wanna fix the new camera? -> open DeI.pack > camera > delete all camera.txt "except" the battle_action_camera.txt than change x y z values to 0 / 1.5 / 11 and than switch the camera angle to 75 with a max distance of 50 meters. zoom and fade times are preferences. I have 10 zoom and 1.5 s transition time.

    Well, those are values from current DeI files and it works.

    Of course it will work, but as soon as values get too high or too low it doesn't matter. If the go beyond the limits they will just count as the limit (if this is clear). e.g. 30 goes beyond 15 and therefore will remain 15, same with 0.001 which goes beyond 1 and will remain 1.
