Is it possible for middle mouse button action to act as a toggle? I doubt I can sustain holding middle mouse button for whole mission.

@Bargor - Unsure, the mod was made before Long War of the Chosen (LWotC) and I'm not actively playing XCOM2. Before installing the mod see what the maximum zoom out is available normally. You should be able to install the mod and then immediately test to see a difference on a new save game (to avoid any issues with an existing game) once it's verified as working try it in your existing/current game (if you have one)

I would like to use this mod with the Long War of the Chosen. Is it possible?

For some reason this mod no longer works for me.

This made my game crash. Please check coding.

Ok, I got it: this or some other mod seemed to have made it impossible to change my keybindings.
So I disabled Steam-Cloud, all Mods & changed them. And this time they were saved.
Next I restarted the game with the Mods enabled, and all is well now.
Maybe this helps someone.

Does anyone know if/how to change the keybinds?
If I change them in the games "Keyboard Bindings" menu it won't save the changes made to these two keys; so I'd really appreciate if someone could tell me how to bind Num1/Num2 to Zoom In/Out
Thanks!

Has anybody managed to find a solution to this zoom underground problem?

i can confirm too that T and G is a bit too close and far than i want it to be.
also when game tried to show the reaper reveal or some mental effect (berserk panic etc) the camera will zoom into the character until it through into the underground

Yeah I get the zooming in underground thing too, and it does seem to be Reaper-related. It sometimes (though not always) spoils the cutscenes for the Lost and Abandoned mission (you're sort of stuck underground hearing the action going on overhead. :) ).

It's not that a big deal with the normal Reaper zoom-ins for reveal because they bounce back (as it were). But it would be nice if this didn't happen.

Yep I can confirm this. Not a bid deal for me tho.

This is an oddity I observed for this mod: specially in some cinematic scene where the game needs to emphasize someone or something, the camera zooms in a bit too far and it goes underground. It acts like some sort of upskirt angle (only if there are skirts in game).

@Godrik Underscore it might be a bug with the game itself, this mod doesn't change the engine and how it processes the camera. Have you tried without any mods, then re-enable each mod starting with this one.

Probably not related to this mod but I'm, stumped so I'll check just to make sure.

The camera stops working after the first turn on a mission when using a Steam controller.

It won't pan, zoom, nor turn.

KBM works just fine, but whenever I use Big picture, the camera stops working.

This does make the game a little more playable... zoom issue in the game was annoying; especially on 3440x1440 =/

Yeah, this mod does have that issue (It does a zoom in on the reaper during the concealment check) I think it did it for one other unit too at some point, but I can't remember which one.

Good mod, thanks for this! Please correct me if I'm wrong but it seems like there is an issue with the mod causing the camera to zoom through Reapers after they take a shot from concealment.

hmmm well okay i trust you and any idea why this mod says it fails to load in the debugger ?

Hi Bosmun - I've tested this personally (as it's a mod I run myself) and it does work fine. You may have another mod that is conflcting or overwriting the change. There is no need to use + because I'm overwritting the value not adding the line as an addition to the config. I execute these overwrites in other .ini files bunded with the mod.

DistanceFromCursor affects the zoom in distance.
ZoomedDistanceFromCursor changes the maximum range of the zoom.

Thanks

also these are the Vanilla
ZoomedDistanceFromCursor=2600 ; in Unreal units. Distance from lookat target at maximum zoom.
DistanceFromCursor=1256
and these are yours
ZoomedDistanceFromCursor=5000 ; in Unreal units. Distance from lookat target at maximum zoom.
;DistanceFromCursor=628
showing that Distance from curser is different and that you compared zoomed distance to a nonzoomed distance that is not valid, this may be because it was changed in a patch that you did not see.

@Nashable, I was looking into this mod's code as it was failing to load and noticed you don't have any +'s or -'s which are required in order to change values in the vanilla code, and because of this this mod isn't loading properly and not actually doing anything (just a heads up)

@Narvi This also happen with the other camera mod by 'ghost', for the longest time I thought it was a bug with WOTC. Hopefully someone can find a way to correct this with an ini tweak to zoom levels or something

I think this mod results in you zooming in too much to the Reaper after killing in Shadow. You zoom into the model then it zooms out... under the map.

I managed to deactivate the addon, however it does still work in the game. While i like to zoom out it tends to zoom in under the games map especially when for example randomizing wether or not Reaper got revealed after an action. Can something be done to prevent that from happening?

Thank you, thank you, thank you and YOU'RE AWESOME. So, THANK YOU!!!

yay now all i need is a 45 degree camera mod

The fact that after each load i have to adjust the cam new is one of the most annying parts of this and the last game. Is there any way to make this damn camera remember how it was configured last time?

Yeah the cam constantly resets/zooms in for me too (Firaxis), a mod for THAT would be great.

do you have a mod for zoom in? and camera turn without angle ( ATM there is 15,45,90.. degret turn but it's not smooth) a Free smoothing turn... do you think it possible?

Oh theyre all WOTC mods. But ever since I beat the hunter and going to the warlock i had two guys that didnt move during the time during the mission/in the stronghold. After that it crashed. So restarted and with out the mods I thought didnt work, it crashed again. I only have 30 mods running too.
But with the cam resting is a Fraxis thing, I didnt know that.
Since this just came out ima wait till later to try playing it again with this on.

Issues of the camera resetting zoom should be sent to Fraxis. This mod adjusts the zoom level, nothing more. If you wish to report a crash then provide specific details on how this mod is causing a crash, with steps on how to reproduce and mod lists. Also make sure you're not running any mods that have not been updated by the mod maker for War of the Chosen.

The only thing that gets me is the reset of the camera when you go out. Ill try this out but i hope my game doesnt crash after first two missions again...tomorrow that is
