Torchlight 2 - Bad Camera
Just started playing this. The fixed camera angle conceals too much so I looked for a mod like TorchlightCam by fincodr (which only works with TL1). Unfortunately, this TL2 camera mod[www.lost.org.uk] which you can read about here[forums.runicgames.com] doesn't work (yields an OrgreMain.dll & other .dll errors).

Anyone have a camera mod for TL2 that works and allows rotation?

That is the only one I am aware of that allows rotation.

I got the aforementioned TL2 camera rotation mod[www.lost.org.uk] to work. There are no readme's or info. explaining Where the files in the zipped archive should be installed.

The zipped files & src folder(& it's contents) need to go in: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Torchlight II ...this will be different depending upon your OS (I'm using Win7x64).

Once all the files are copied directly into your T2 steamapps directory, create a shortcut to TL2Cam.exe upon your desktop. When you clicky the shortcut it opens a miniature Torchlight 2 Camera Mod window with 2 sliders for horiz./vert. sensitivity and camera and reset key binding buttons (I left mine the default Middle Mouse Button/MMB and Backspace keys).

When I fired up the game in Steam with this little useful tool running in the background in Windoze I noticed that it even allows changing the camera angle in character selection/creation too.

Very useful tool. You'll definitely appreciate it in dungeons where you walk behind walls and are shown by a pastel blue outline and can't see monsters (pastel red outlines) or even where you're walking.

Amazing info! Thanks!

Have you considered writing a short Steam Guide with this info?

I've never written any game guides... a guide may be helpful though as it seems there are a few obstacles for folks trying to play/enjoy Torchlight/Torchlight2/Hob.

The first obstacle is that the games (except Hob) are older and thus most FAQs/information is dated.

Second, Runic Games has shutdown (were bought by Chinese MMORPG dev Perfect World).. thus the handy pinned links at the top of this Steam Discussion Board point to Runic Games website locations which are gone now.

My browser gives me this error: The owner of support.runicgames.com has configured their website improperly.

I started a thread some time ago stating that the pinned links were bad and a moderator should address/fix this but it seems to have gone unnoticed <shrug>.

Perhaps because the titles are older that stagnation has made this a ghost town for the few(?) people that still wish to play/enjoy these games they paid for.

I don't understand the question... No, I am not banned.

It has been quite a while since I played any Torchlight games. I had an issue with a corrupt save I couldn't rescue in TL2 and just gave up to play other more stable games.

Torchlight isn't VAC protected, so no, you won't be banned.

I followed the instructions but nothing happens when I double click on the TL2Cam.exe
