Xerxes the Great Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 ianc and other mouseophobics, Have you ever used the mouse wheel before? The trick to this game's camera and most existing 3D games for that matter, is the use of the mouse wheel. I recommend arming yourself with a high-end mouse which has hydralic (smooth and responsive) mouse wheel. Then use the adjustments available in the game's control to adjust the wheel sensitivity and then test drive for a while and you will get it! As for quickly going to any spot on the map, use the "mini map" to click where in the map you want to be and you will be beamed there! What I don't understand is that how some folks ever played 3D war games before! The camera controls in this game is not that different from most popular 3D war games in the market today. In fact, the zooming level (up and down) in this game is superior to most other games I have seen. Over and out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisND Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Before I even started my first scenario, I re-mapped the camera controls. Never ever had a problem. I've been playing CM for years and years and I think the TOW controls are SUPERIOR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MajorPrivate Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 I do not understand how someone could not be happy with the camera controls they have always been fine for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coon Dog Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 I dont have any problems with the camera controls works great for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freeboy Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 ok, the cammarra is qwerki, but after some trying with a three button roller mouse all works ok for me. I use the inverse wheel setting, seems that I now seem to try to pause all my other games, non turn based by hittingthe space bar! oops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prankster Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 The BEST use of a free camera in a game, has to be Railroad Tycoon 3. Click and hold the right mouse button and you can ZOOM and ROTATE to your hearts content... I wished ToW was like this (as I did Company of Heroes).

blowmonkey Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Yep....re-mapping (per say) the camera controls to the mouse or a device like the FANG or belkin n52 controler will GREATLY enhance the game! i am going to try it tonight to see what happens!

Pilot37 Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Camera just needs 1 addition. I like to lock on and follow a unit, not from the drivers seat but from a position of my choice. The graphics are very good and make one want to track along with one unit. Unless I have missed something, this is the missing camera option.
