View Full Version : Best Camera Mod?

As I'm fairly new, both to SH3 and these forums, I'm wondering what (if any) camera mods enhance the games first-person perspective and make it easier to rotate, zoom and move the camera angle (especially in giving it more unrestricted freedom in the interior)?

I feel SH3's menu navigation and situational awareness is a bit clunky at times, especially when you click to release the camera and your cursor ends up over some button which you then inadvertently press changing your course, speed, giving unintentional orders, etc...

Also, is there anything that gives a similar mouse-look experience to SH5? Namely being able to move through the interior "FPS-style" or just being able to move through the boat in any direction without double-clicking on those specific "click-spots" (the ones noted by a red cursor when you hover over them) that warp you a few meters forward?

There are a few you can try, but if you intend to install FM New Interiors it already includes a new cameras.dat file which changes the in-ship perspective. To test out the free cam, simply press Shift-F2 at the same time and then move about the interior of the boat.

The directional keyboard commands are the 'four cursor arrows' for horizontal movement plus 'Home' and 'End' for vertical.

If you still want to try some others the following link should help:

Good luck! :sunny:
