This mod is inherently obsolete...

Simple but useful. Thanks!

Ya the game let's you do this now because mods like this were so popular but it didn't have it before.
Riekopo 23 Sep, 2016 @ 5:10am 
The game already lets you do this.
Azagedon 21 Jan, 2016 @ 2:39pm 
Works great. Shoud of been included in the game!
LordPeverell 4 Jan, 2016 @ 4:53pm 
this doesnt work
Hezekieh 1 Dec, 2015 @ 1:42am 
Why couldn't the UPLOADER have done this previously???
Badaim 7 Nov, 2015 @ 5:47am 
this
map("mousez", "world", "uiWheelZoom")

have to become this
//map("mousez", "world", "uiWheelZoom")

and do what Mr.Bubbles said
ROTG 28 Oct, 2015 @ 12:45pm 
Its Good :)
Your Local Democracy Officer 25 Oct, 2015 @ 6:36pm 
@Mr.Bubbles how do I edit that file? I can't seem to open it
Uatcher 18 Jun, 2015 @ 10:45am 
Forgive mi ignorance, but I seem to get this mod to work. I followed the instructions to do it manually but still no good, any help?
Aristoxenus 18 May, 2015 @ 3:13pm 
I dont know why, but today when i began to play i couldnt neither rotate camera neither the buidlings, i unsubscribe to many mods, i verify the options check that the rotate camera was checked, it was, but it still continue to only zoom the camera, what is happening?

nottud, gamex.con is now supported so you can put your stuff there. No manual installation necessary any more :-)
My name Yeff 25 Feb, 2015 @ 6:39am 
I have a slight issue... I'm a total noob and the mouse wheel just changes the zoom of the camera for me, how do I fix this?
Mr.Bubbles 11 Jan, 2015 @ 1:04pm 
@bgratta Sweet, Its official
Snazzymonster 6 Jan, 2015 @ 9:00am 
@Mr.Bubbles Just tried what you said to do and it works fine including online play
Mr.Bubbles 30 Nov, 2014 @ 11:09am 
This is pretty simple to do yourself without a mod... In fact the necessary file to change already has the setting, it's just commented out.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Age of Mythology\startup\gamex.con

Around line 539 you'll see:

//map ("mousez", "building", "uiWheelRotatePlacedUnit")

Just remove the // and save the file. When placing usints, use the mouse wheel to rotate.

NOTE: I do not know if this will work in multiplayer since I don't ever play multipayer but it did work on a random map.
Hex 12 Nov, 2014 @ 1:00am 
My concern is I have had to do the same thing for another mod. If I overwrite the other mods "user.con" file with this one I cant use that one anymore (WASD to move camera Mod).
Aristoxenus 25 Sep, 2014 @ 6:55pm 
Wat do i do after i click startup?
They ask me for someting more about search
BridgetFisher 1 Sep, 2014 @ 11:37pm

BEST MOD - now i can make cool cities
Krakonus 11 Jul, 2014 @ 11:20am

Top Bloke Gman 9 Jul, 2014 @ 6:36am 
I subscribed but there's no 'mods' folder.
Dark Lord Dennis the Fearsome 8 Jul, 2014 @ 11:03am 
aa a real must for people who want to make something pretty of there encampment ;P
G-Rath 6 Jul, 2014 @ 5:48pm 
Hey you might like to add: map ("shift-mousez", "unbuild", "uiWheelRotatePlacedUnit")

This lets you rotate buildings when timeshifting them as Kronos. Note that that line is bound to Shift + MouseWheel.

For those complaining about not being able to find user.con, thats because the file isn't created by default. You have to create it, which can be done simply create a new text file and rename it to user.con

Make sure you can see and edit file extensions when you do this - If you can't see .txt after making a text file then you can't edit file extensions. Head to Google to find out how to change it - Its just a setting tickbox that you have to change in Windows so shouldn't be an issue.
G-Rath 6 Jul, 2014 @ 5:48pm 
For those complaining its not working - Make sure the mods downloaded first! For some reason Steam + AoM:EE's mod manager had issues downloading the mod for me. While Steam would report the mod downloaded, it wasn't actually in the mod folder. Try restarting Steam, and restarting the game's launcher.

The latter should be done a couple of times as every time the launcher starts up it checks the mods you're subscribed to, downloading or removing all mods that are/aren't on disk according to what you subscribed to.

Going from the Steam library root, the mod folder is located at: steamapps\common\Age of Mythology\mods

Sorry for the long comment, hope I've helped a couple of people at least :D
Sozbury90 6 Jul, 2014 @ 12:46pm 
Just downloaded this, doesnt work with the manager but worked with manual, and its sooo epic im ocd when it comes to building bases and even tho its a little thing just feels right to have. Thanks dude!
Doomed World 16 Jun, 2014 @ 3:00pm

Armored Baron 15 Jun, 2014 @ 9:43am 
Moved the file and it worked, the Devs should get their shit together tho.
Healer 5 Jun, 2014 @ 1:04pm

Healer 5 Jun, 2014 @ 12:41pm

Arudesu 28 May, 2014 @ 12:27pm 
i have installed the mod but it won't let me rotate
Randall 27 May, 2014 @ 7:58am 
I subscribed but how it works? I mean how to rotate things after instaling this mod? xD
Platysaur 24 May, 2014 @ 10:21am 
It didn't work when I subscribed so I did it manually but it still doesn't work.
Hundley 21 May, 2014 @ 4:49pm 
Certain buildings when you place them don't build in the direction you place it in.
Bruno Magno 18 May, 2014 @ 4:32am 
Thanks a lot man. This mod is simple but amazing!!!
Maxxy 16 May, 2014 @ 5:24pm 
Should I try to put it in manually because it won't work. Or am I just not doing it right because I can't rotate it.
Ripley 16 May, 2014 @ 2:34pm

Maxxy 15 May, 2014 @ 6:44pm

Jaketz 11 May, 2014 @ 12:32pm 
Thanks
ellellell1 11 May, 2014 @ 1:30am 
Amazing Mod! I have always wanted to be able to do that :)
Andax 10 May, 2014 @ 3:17pm 
Awesome thanks man. This was the first thing I wanted. The mod manager didn't work like you said it mightn't though, so I did the moving user.con method.
Curaffte 10 May, 2014 @ 2:58pm 
Brilliant mod mate. Thank you :)
wizaerd 10 May, 2014 @ 7:57am 
Raiders, it's a text file so any plain jane text editor like notepad...
