Better Campaign Camera Angles – Type A
This mod changes the viewing angles of the campaign camera at the zoom extremes, like so:
-
Very zoomed in, close to the ground:
Lower viewing angle. You can see more of the horizon. Can zoom in a bit further than vanilla.
-
Middle zoom levels, not at the extremes:
Higher viewing angles, but not too much.
-
Very zoomed out, all the way up but before entering strategic view:
Very high viewing angle and severely reduced fog. Same maximum height as vanilla.
-
Strategic view:
Not changed.
This is Save-Game compatible, but you might have to save then reload your game again after enabling/disabling this mod.
The main difference between this mod and other campaign camera mods is that the lower viewing angle happens only when the camera is almost all the way zoomed in.
Because during normal, zoomed out gameplay, a higher angle camera view is better. So this doesn’t interfere with that. You only get the lower angle when you intentionally zoom all the way in.
For normal zoom levels the camera is still mostly at a higher angle. But also it’s not too much of a higher angle. And the atmospheric fog is still there, except for the highest camera zoom. Still allowing for clarity without sacrificing the game’s visuals.
I think I managed to strike a pretty cool balance. That’s why I though I should upload this, because other people might like it too.
You can check the images to get a better understanding but I really recommend you try it out for yourself, because images alone can’t properly convey the improved feel that these changes bring to your gameplay experience.
This is save-game compatible. See the note above.
