How do you change the max camera distance? It is no longer under advanced options
/console cameraDistanceMaxZoomFactor 2.6
/console cameraDistanceMaxZoomFactor 1.9
If you want it further, slightly adjust the value. 2.1 should be far enough.
Dang I like to be able to see my toon. How far out you tryna zoom? Orbital view?
Sometimes it’s helpful to zoom further out for mechanics in places. Some of those circles are insanely huge. Or too small and you need a good overhead view.
Was this function “enabled” again/ recently?
We used to be able to zoom the camera really far out. I’m talking from BC → Legion.
Legion capped the distance for the sake of the grappling hook “puzzles.” If you zoomed out far enough, you could just see all the grapple points, removing all the challenge.
Then in… either late SL/early DF, they uncapped the camera for, like, a week or something. Then it went back to the normal cap. Another example of “fun detected.”
But people persisted in “camera hacks” thinking that the camera commands went from (sic) FPS/POV mode to what was just the cap. It’s nowhere near what that camera command USED to be.
Did they remove the cap again and I just didn’t know about it??
