Generally if you're not running a game as the Admin settings won't be saved when you restart the game. Right-click the shortcut and either select "Run as Administrator" from the drop down menu or go to the properties and under the Compatability tab tick the "Run as an administrator" box. If that doesn't work i would suggest going over to the battlefront forums, ToW is quite dead here so a resposne might take a while, and they also have tech support people to assist you at BF.

I think it might have something to do with the new R.A.T. 7 mouse I just installed. http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=15567 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I'm not sure why a mouse driver would affect this setting. If the setting is not being saved (changing back to some sort of default), then it would sound like some sort of file security issue where the appropriate file is not being updated. For TOW 2, the file in question is usually located at: '\Program Files (x86)\Battlefront\Theatre of War 2\users\player 1\camera.properties Opening this up with Notepad or some other plain text editor will give you something like this: [camera] keybLinearMove 100.0 keybRotateYaw 600.0 keybRotatePitch 400.0 scrollLinearMove 100.0 mouseTurnYaw 0.20000000298023224 mouseTurnPitch 0.1 mouseWheel 38.606136322021484 hMIN 2.0 hMAX 60.0 freeLookMode 1 The 'Zoom Speed' is the 'mouseWheel' setting. I'm not sure what the value range is, but it might be between 2 and 40 (slow, fast). I would guess that if this value doesn't change each time you change it in the game, then the game most likely does not have the appropriate permissions to modify the file. I don't know how the 'R.A.T 7' driver might affect this. It should NOT affect the value recorded in this file however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mastiff Posted July 31, 2010 Author Share Posted July 31, 2010 ok it works with the campaign self started missions. It does not work with the quick missions that came with the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
