Just an update for those checking this out, I use this mod in a 400 mod WOTC playthrough with ZERO issues.

Number one tip is to use Alternative Mod Launcher, gurantee you the people below saying they have issues are just using the base launcher,

I also got the "random black screen" bug with this mod. If you're not saving every turn this might not be the mod for you.

For those wondering: it doesn't work with WOTC.

Here again, 4 years and No Update! Shame on FIRAXIS for not giving us free map rotation from the start! :steamsalty:

Sorry ich meinte horizontale Drehung im Vorbeitrag, also Standardtasten Q und E...
BAD|Snake.Killa 19 Aug, 2020 @ 8:46am 
Jetzt habe ich zusätzlich gemerkt, dass man selbst im Spiel vor einem Schuss zB. nicht zufällig exakt auf YAW Winkel Null stehen darf. (Drehung Vertikal) Auch dann kommt dieser Bug...
Ich hoffe ich konnte irgend jemanden helfen :) Für mich war es sehr lästig und ich dachte an einen Mod-Konflikt...
BAD|Snake.Killa 19 Aug, 2020 @ 7:23am 
Ich habe den Fehler (Schwarzer Bildschirm und Dauergeräusch im Hintergrund zB. nachdem ein Pod aktiviert wurde) auch gehabt und die Ursache gefunden. Ich habe zwar nicht den Mod genutzt, aber die selbe Funtion genutzt durch ini Änderung des Kamerawinkels Yaw. Dieser Winkel darf nicht Null sein (entweder durch Mod oder ini_Eintrag. Dann kommt dieser Fehler und er ist reproduzierbar.

This (and any mod that allows 30 or 45 degree angles) seems to randomly cause a black or white screen bug during the tactical game. When it happens to you, you'll know it.

Nice mod. The other mods' unaligned camera bothered me too. Glad someone else cares as much.

Hey, just a question, but does this mod cause issues when you research teh Codex Brain Shadow Project? When I did in my playthrough it stopped the scanning, but the cutscene did not trigger. The Decrypt Codex Brain Shadow Project was unlocked however. I was just curious if you knew anything about this XD

@CastledCard OCD much?
CastledCard 2 Sep, 2017 @ 9:06pm 
Could you update this so WotC doesn't think it isn't compatable? It works, but it'd be nice to not have that the game know it's compatable.
Farakill 31 Aug, 2017 @ 3:39am 
WOTC version?
Katari 20 Jun, 2017 @ 8:16am 
So, this mod is giving my the "Disco Glitch" Worked fine till I bought dlc. (Yes I already deleted my config file, still disco.)
Dybs 18 May, 2017 @ 6:31am 
Is this the black screen issue some people were having with this mod? As this is what I'm currently experiencing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nZ3yhdycw8

Since the author never updated the mod for the official gamepad support patch, i did it myself.

@Citizen Joe In LW2 the camera does not line up perfectly, which makes it super annoying. This fixes it.
Citizen Joe 22 Jan, 2017 @ 7:50pm 
You can even set the exact camera rotation per button press in the options menu
Citizen Joe 22 Jan, 2017 @ 7:49pm 
LW2 features the exact same functionality as this mod AFAIK, so theres no real point in using it
Alphaetus_Prime 20 Jan, 2017 @ 10:14am 
@raiders5000 - I've been using it with LW2 for the past day and so far I've had no issues
BootsyFarnsworth 19 Jan, 2017 @ 2:26pm 
Do you guys know if this mod works with LW2?
Fx_oO7 16 Nov, 2016 @ 11:46pm 
Your mod works with the new November update.
Thank you.
Gutted 9 Nov, 2016 @ 11:43am 
I looked at the source code and noticed that your D-PAD Left & Right handler functions should not be there under the UsingTargetingMethod state.

I'd fix it myself, but im not downloading that humongous SDK again to fix one script.
Gutted 9 Nov, 2016 @ 11:31am 
This mod needs an update after the gamepad patch.

When you go into the action mode (by pushing the right trigger), the camera continues to rotate around when using the D-PAD to select from the avialbe actions (e.g. reload, hunker down, throw grenade etc.). It should not, and only does so with this mod installed.
Obi 22 Jul, 2016 @ 6:47am 
Delete all ini files inside "My Documents\My Games\XCOM2\XComGame\Config" folder, make sure you have the mod selected in launcher and run the game. This fixed my issue when any mod stopped working.
Obi 21 Jul, 2016 @ 2:08am 
Was waorking until about mid campaign and this is the only mod I'm using. Why isn't something like this included in the base game Firaxis?
DAOWAce 14 Jul, 2016 @ 10:38am 
For some reason, none of the camera rotation mods are working for me, and I've yet to find a solution to this problem.

Some other people are also suffering the same issue, and we have no idea what's causing it.

Still working under "Shen's Last Gift".

Woohoo~! :)
Boucaced 30 Jun, 2016 @ 12:37am 
Works well ! Thanks
Cahos Rahne Veloza 13 May, 2016 @ 3:08am 
Thankfully still working under the latest (May 12th) update :)
Macho Hamster 25 Apr, 2016 @ 1:37pm 
Is the black screen issue fixed, because I just got it twice in the same mission. Had to reload each time.
EpicBossFight 2 Apr, 2016 @ 3:05pm 
It works, thank you
Sirbloke  [author] 2 Apr, 2016 @ 7:00am 
I don't have one to try with, but the code has a DPad_Left and DPad_Right function which is being used by this mod - in fact the keyboard controls are calling the DPad functions, so since the keyboard works the controller should. Unless the game just isn't registering the input, but that would be an issue with the base game / controller. Its hard to say for sure without one to test with though.
Mountain Man 2 Apr, 2016 @ 6:33am 
Does XCOM 2 even support the 360 controller? I know it has native Steam Controller support (which is awesome).
Sirbloke  [author] 2 Apr, 2016 @ 4:37am 
Hey EpicBossFight, have you tried it with a controller? It should work.
EpicBossFight 1 Apr, 2016 @ 2:06pm 
Could you make this work with the di-pad buttons of the 360 controller please?
Cornelian 31 Mar, 2016 @ 2:22pm 
Thanks for this improvement barbro!
Mountain Man 28 Mar, 2016 @ 4:43pm 
I think one of the biggest compliments I can give you is the fact that I installed this mod, booted up the game to check it out, and then almost completely forgot that it was even installed. It's such a seamless improvement.
[Fr] Big C 21 Mar, 2016 @ 5:35am 
Same here, I think the other "camera modder" is too arrogant.
Cahos Rahne Veloza 20 Mar, 2016 @ 3:03am 
Thank you for your take on the same concept.

I had to unsub, unfavorite, remove from my collection and thumb down the other mod because the author was too proud of himself :P

Yes most of us who subbed to his mod are not too familiar with modding nor .ini editing but he didn't have to be a d|ck when most of us got annoyed at his most recent changes to his mod.

Yes his creation is his and he's free to do whatever the damn he wants with his mod, but once he uploaded it here on the Workshop he essentially gave his subscribers the right to ask for and/or complain when his creation gets messed up.

I sincerely hope you won't follow in his footsteps because modders like that who feel their privileged SHOULD NEVER publicly host their creations if they're not welcome to user feedback.

Thank you
Divine Lucubration 18 Mar, 2016 @ 7:03pm 
Thank you for making this mod. Simple, clean, perfect.
Ser Lancelot 17 Mar, 2016 @ 10:46am 
@berlew, THANK YOU. Firaxis is a moron...45* turns, really?
DrakethePug 16 Mar, 2016 @ 2:33pm 
@berlew
LEGEND.
Sirbloke  [author] 16 Mar, 2016 @ 12:51pm 
Hey everyone, mod has been updated to work with the latest patch. Sorry for the delay, enjoy :)
Amazing Spy-The-Man 13 Mar, 2016 @ 4:02am 
Fix the mod coz it's awesome and I can't live without it.
Grim Leaper 11 Mar, 2016 @ 4:19am 
While we're waiting, if you can't live without 45 degree rotation, at least the other camera mod is working: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=616359783

(You might need to remove all the ModClassOverrides from My Games\XCOM2\XComGame\Config\XComEngine.ini, as suggested by TheDyingScotsman in the other thread.)
Red 11 Mar, 2016 @ 12:55am 
At least it doesn't crash the game. Hope this gets fixed soon because it's a must-have.
FREND 10 Mar, 2016 @ 5:50pm 
I was wondering about that too. Hopefully it gets updated soon. I'm missing the ability to rotate it by 45 degrees.
Immhotep 10 Mar, 2016 @ 12:34pm 
Yup, it's not working
