Update: This mod has become obsolete meanwhile All*Saves v2.0 contains already a proprietary tuning for camera angles and fog distance.
Mod is being kept here for historical purposes.

// ZoomFar *Combined* (for Maps made by GPG) - by KillerGremal/F3

// - ZoomFar Mod (distance=22, min_azimuth=10) for Dungeon Siege II
// - ZoomFar Mod (distance=22, min_azimuth=10) for Dungeon Siege II BROKEN WORLD

// ZoomFar Mod (distance=22, min_azimuth=10) for Dungeon Siege II - by KillerGremal/F3 - 27-Jun-2006
//
// Content: Modified main.gas file from Dungeon Siege II default map to allow you to have a more flexible camera.
//
// The new values under [camera] are rather average, they are a good compromise for speed/fps, for texture errors
// (these errors are not fatal) and for requirements of further mods (no further mods actually required).
// However, for special purpose it can make sense to change these values.

// ZoomFar Mod (distance=22, min_azimuth=10) for Dungeon Siege II BROKEN WORLD - by KillerGremal/F3 - 15-SEP-2006
//
// NOTE:
// DUE TO SOME STRANGE CIRCUMSTANCES THIS CAMERA WON'T REQUIRE TO HANDLE THE ADDON MAP ANYHOW,
// SO YOU NEITHER HAVE TO RE-TANK IT NOR TO COPY IT AT A DIFFERENT LOCATION.

//
// Installation:
// - Copy the DS2 map file into the 'resources' folder and there change the file extension to be: *.ds2res
// - Put this mod into the 'resources' folder of your DS2 installtion.
// - Install All*Saves 'game-launcher' to load your recent chars: http://garage.gaspowered.com/?q=node/1990
//
// Special Note:
// Amazingly you can go online with that mod and join games that haven't installed this mod - even with v2.2!

//
// For special purpose it can make sense to change these values - just some notes:
//
// ==> distance: Range between char and camera. if >25 you better should install one of the 'SeeFar' mods too,
// otherwise the fog in the background will probably cover the environement and your char. And well, the higher
// the distance and the farer the fog, the more must be rendered, the lower the FPS rate... :=(
// seefar mod download resources:
// - http://herenaforge.org/tiki-list_file_gallery.php?galleryid=2
// - http://dungeonsiege2.net/fanpage/download/index.php?subcat=4
//
// ==> min_azimuth: Angles between ground and camera. for tactical use >20 may be fine, however for screenshots
// an even lower value can look better. note, the lower that value, the more texture errors (non-fatal).
//
// ==> min_distance: Minumum range between char and camera, to closer the more lower (subjectively) the texture
// quality will appear, also manoeuvring your char gets very tricky. if there is no more distance you get some
// kind of 1st-person-view. nice for char-less screenshots, however manoeuvring won't be possible like this.
