Hi

I love the mod but is there no way to zoom out a small bit more? I find the camera very restrictive to manage large amounts of units.

Any ideas?

Also is it possible to install Rise of the Witch King if this mod has already been installed? I know they are not compatible, but I don't want to break the mod by installing ROTWK if it is not recommended

Thanks,
Gian

Reinstalling ROTWK shouldn't damage your mod, but if your worried, you can make a back up of your mod.

With the camera I think that's in the map settings but I think you can edit it in the game code.

Reinstalling RotWK won't interfere. I've done it... twice. :rolleyes:

Careful. This link is DANGEROUS. Do NOT click it. This one, however, is fine.

Great thanks for clarifying on the Witch King part.

Back to the zooming out part.... can I just change the config.ini settings? Or is there more to it... there isn't a mini mod or something is there that is compatible with SEE?

Alternatively if there are steps to follow could someone please give me the instructions.

Thanks!

Although I don't think it features a greater zoom out distance, which is what he and possibly others are after.

Could you please have a look at that http://www.widescree...th_2_Camera_Fix

Could this be implemented in the mod?

I fail to see the special fix they did? As far as I can see, all it does it alter the zoom level. That is a one number fix... RjCam alter the ANGLE, not the zoom :p

So we will not be able to zoom out farther? Because if you have a widescreen monitor you are far to near to the ground...

You are near the ground regardless of how wide the monitor is...
We will alter the zoom, yes

Sorry but that's wrong. Bfme 2 doesn't support widescreen, widescreens show less of the game than normal monitors do.

My Screen is 1680x1050.

The highest possible ingame resolution is somewhat 1360 x 700 or something like that, but you can change the resolution via editing the settings file. You will have a better resolution then, but that doesn't really help. In the vanilla version i don't even see the complete radius of a farm....
