- (Update 9/17) in patch 7.1 the default UI slider was removed and the cvar renamed to cameraDistanceMaxZoomFactor
You can also use this command instead of this addon (in Classic)
Thank you so much! Again!
Thank you so much!
I didn't really notice my camera changed until I did a raid for the first time since pre-patch this morning. Immediately went to google to find this addon. Thank you sir, so very much.
P.S Blizzard if your reading these comments, Archimonde needs some advise on foot hygiene.
I don't understand Blizzard's position on this topic.
Crippling the camera radius is definitely the most awkward change in Legion. There was an official bluepost that explained that they designed the game around the new max camera range and they also aligned a couple of irrelevant PC-game genres with no far-views. Yea, you guess right people shouldn't be think tank experts to see through this bullshitting.
They don't hear us, or if so, they don't care. It's not about the silent masses who agree with this decision, show me one person who likes this change and I'll show you a thousand.
This is about some honch at Blizzard who thought he reinvented the wheel and maintains his decision even though everyone around him considers it as a total failure already.
You know what? it's more simple. Go kill Kazzak in melee and wonder how astonishing that you designed World of Warcraft around fullscreen giant hooves.
There's some other games i (used to) play that have their max cam reduced now, such as Devilian and Rift. In Rift i was able to adjust the cfg file myself and i have a very comfortable max cam back, more than i had before even.
Devilian i'm most probably going to uninstall, they can stuff it up some dark place as Blizzard can with WoW if they don't change their sucky attitude about this particular subject and towards us the players.
They never were like this during vanilla, they had this almost personal approach, they cared. This Watcher dude should be first in queue for the (hard) kick in the butt when they are going to have to "let employees go".
I feel very much insulted by Blizzard and when they hotfix the part of the game that made this addon possible, i haven't played wow and will quit if this doesn't get reversed, i will know enough. (tried to keep all the swearing and related anger away but well, i'm sorry if i wasn't thorough enough, there's also some beer involved ;-) )
Thx for creating the addon, i will check it out as soon as Auctioneer is fixed aswell ;-)
Works for a lot of my friends but not for me. I tried it all and still cam is stuck at 28.4 in distance. Anyone else has this problem or a solution? Disabled all my addons, deleted my etf folder but still stuck.
I have the same problem, but just on my main.. Try it on a different character
Omg i cant say how thankfull I'm for this addon, I love you
@Soylattes
You do realize they have been working on a fix for the dizzyness some players are experiencing for the last week? But sure, think the worse and make up your own facts.
It works on all my chars except my main..
Well, at least theres and addon. Let's see how time it passes until:
a) Blizzard hotfixes it
or
b) Blizzard increases the Max Camera Distance again.
Thanks for the addon!
It's SAD that we need an addon to do something that was already in the base game for twelve years
Whatever they bounced the servers for, it wasn't for breaking this. It's still (thank God) working.
I had to zoom in before I could zoom out again but that was the only glitch.
Freedom :)
Best addon, Thank you.
Love this addon more than anything.
After testing it, I do have some concerns. Going anything outside 50 zoom would honestly be against ToS in my opinion *no idea if it is or not*
It just seems soo,...not intended.
One suggestion would be to ONLY allow up to 50 (as it was before) or I feel this may be looked at by Blizzard as an exploit and possibly be deleted from curse. Just a suggestion!
Like I said, thank you so much for this addon, its a life saver, just trying to keep it on curse! :)
Thank you! At last it's back to normal position! :D
OMG I love you, dude! xD Thank you so much!
Oh God! Thanks! <3
Watch this addon spread like wildfire
