Default Zooming

Hi All,
How do I get the zoom to work?
The key is shown as "TAB" or "Mouse Wheel"
Neither works...
I am talking about when I go to the camera views of the sub, etc.....
Thanks,
Jerry G (Glickstein)

exterior "free cam" left click to take possesion of the camera point of view.

Move camera using the arrow keys.

With a little practice you will get pretty handy with it getting some unique views.

Simply aim the camera at what you want to 'zoom' to with your mouse and push the up arrow key. The camera will 'fly' in that direction 'zooming' towards your target.

Note that you can only get so close to ships / subs as the boundries will stop your camera from getting closer.
