I guess there's some confusion on just what's the difference between the "External Camera" and the "Free Camera"? So, here's how Ultimate works:

I hope this explains the different camera setups in Ultimate, and what they do. At least, what they will do with the next release of the Beta.

I believe that you've answered my question. I'm very happy to hear that the next iteration will have the ability to zoom in "External" (< >) view.
The "Free" Camera does not track with the unit. (F12 key)
The "External" tracks with the unit. (< > keys) ((Actually (, comma and . period keys) Do not use "Shift"))


The only modification I made, I got from comparing the camera.dat from TMO 2.5 with the camera.dat from FOTRSU. I don't recall the section of the camera.dat that I messed with, but I can double back and check, or I can send you the modified camera.dat file that I'm using as a mod after installing FORTSU.

In any case, with my mod, I can fully zoom in with the "External" (< >) camera as opposed with the FOTRSU .71 stock zoom which gets close, but not close enough for making screenshots that I like. (Which I then use as a wallpaper screen saver when I'm not playing the game.)


Thanks!
