SBCameraScroll

Description
Creates a smooth, scrolling camera that moves with the slugcat. Based on pipi toki's CameraScroll mod.

Here is a youtube video showing Rain World v1.5 + SBCameraScroll (+ other mods) in action:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePJbY4GSMck

This mod includes additional cameras:
  • (Vanilla Type Camera) Behaves almost identical to the vanilla camera -- with one major difference. You can center the camera on the slugcat by pressing the map button. The keybinding can be configured using the mod Improved Input Config.
  • (Switch Type Camera) Allows you to switch between the other two camera types by pressing the map button. The keybinding can be configured using the mod Improved Input Config.

INCOMPATIBILITIES
- The zoom camera option in the Slugcat Eyebrow Raise mod.

BUG REPORTS
Please post bugs on the Rain World Discord[discord.gg] server in the channel '#modding-support' (ping me @schuhbaum) or on the mod's GitHub page under Issues[github.com].
Describe step-by-step how to reproduce the bug. Drag & drop the files 'consoleLog.txt', '\BepInEx\LogOutput.log' and 'exceptionLog.txt' (if it exists) from the folder '\Steam\SteamApps\common\Rain World\'. These logs get deleted or cleared when you launch the game. Send them after you encounter the issue.

FAQ
Q1: The mod doesn't work. I can't open the mod's option menu. How to fix this?
A1: Sometimes the mod is not initialized or applied correctly. You can re-apply it in the REMIX menu. Disable and enable the mod, and then press 'APPLY MODS'.
A2: One thing that helped multiple people is to delete the 'Rain World\BepInEx' folder and then verifying the integrity of the game files in Steam.
A3: Maybe this more extensive strategy works for you:
- Delete RW completely.
- Then deactivate downpour on steam client so it won't download.
- Install RW again.
- Apply all mods that you want in remix and test them
- Continue if they work now
- Activate downpour on steam so it would download
- Activate downpour mods in remix
- Reboot the game

Q2: The mod doesn't seem to work on Linux / SteamDeck. What can I do?
A: You can try to add WINEDLLOVERRIDES="winhttp=n,b" %command% to the launch options (in Steam: right click >> Properties >> General). After that, disable all mods, restart and then enable them again.
If that doesn't work there are other threads about Linux and SteamDeck on the Rain World Discord[discord.gg] server.

Q3: The game freezes when entering a region. How to fix this?
A: The game might actually not be frozen. The mod needs to generate files for each region. This can take time (>1 minute). Wait a bit. If the game actually crashed then you have an 'exceptionLog.txt' file in your Rain World folder. If that is the case then proceed with the section BUG REPORTS.

Q4: My game actually crashed. What happened?
A: Your game might have run out of memory. So far I haven't found a solution to this. As a workaround, I recommend that you restart your game from time to time (see KNOWN ISSUES).

Q5: Some adjacent camera textures don't match visually.
A: This is a technical limitation. The camera textures are generated by the game (vanilla) and just stitched together by this mod. This means that the perspective of them don't match. In some cases it is more noticeable than in others.

KNOWN ISSUES
  • Some snow related shaders don't work correctly. In some places there is more snow than in vanilla and in other places less. Falling snow can "jump" when you would have changed screens.
  • This mod increases memory consumption. When the game runs low on memory the performance will decline and the game might crash. This might take a while (90+ minutes). It is recommended to restart the game every now and then.
    CONTEXT: There might be memory leaks or memory fragmentation. A memory leak would mean that memory is not released when it is not used anymore. Fragmentation might happen because most roomCamera textures are now fairly large and change in size often. This means that they need to be re-allocated in memory often and they require a chunk of memory without "holes".
  • Shadows at the edge of the screen seem to flicker or stretch in some rooms. I can see the same thing without camera scroll. Maybe a vanilla bug.
  • Motion sickness might be a problem. I wonder how much is due to noise (details) in the textures. You can play around with the parameters and see what works for you.

enabling zoom and entering a room with terrain makes the terrain look off, can there be a fix for this

I tried Outer Rim and it did not lag on my machine. The log was spammed with path finding message. The scavs path finding failed a bunch. But no lagging or crashes / exceptions.

You can try to disable other mods and see if other mods contribute to the lags.
SchuhBaum  [author] 13 Jul @ 9:48pm 
Have you verified that this is happens only for the most recent version (see the section OLDER VERSIONS)?

You can also send logs (see the section BUG REPORTS). I can check if I get lags in these regions later today.

I have one major problem: the game starts to lag a lot in sandy regions like the Outer Rim, Badlands and Hot Desert. This was not the case in previous versions.
SchuhBaum  [author] 9 Jul @ 9:43pm 
IIRC, depending on your resolution you get cut off in one screen arenas (even in vanilla). Maybe you can check if that happens when the mod is turned off.

arena mode has cut off areas for me

I had to use this because when I was playing as artificer scavengers kept sniping me off screen and I'm DONE WITH IT. FRICK YOU SCAVENGERS.

That is one of many issues with zooming. It is experimental and not recommended.
Tron 8 Jul @ 12:04pm 
Using dynamic zoom option causes issues with aim anywhere because it thinks the slug cat is in a different position than it is making the angle to the mouse be wrong

Great mod, although it does create some funny blanks in most pits and open rooms. Of course, nothing can be done about that
