For anybody that still wants this, I don't know if there are other mods with a different name, I've found 3 on nexus, but they were all out of date.
So i took it upon myself and based on a lua script file from Penitence's Mod, I've managed to update it and make it work using AMUMSS.
Download links in my quoted post below. Enjoy.
Inital post:
GCCAMERAGLOBALS XML structure got changed, but I was able to fix the lua and got a working file using AMUMSS.
I've changed the attributes around, removed 1 that didn't exist anymore (Stages) and also set LookTime to 0. (default 2)
I don't know what the original mod did originally, but with this one it removes all zoom-in/zoom-out animation completely, and there is no camera lock, it's pretty much instant interaction. Works for planetary charts too, it still does the pulse and the zoom-in zoom-out sound, but it's instant and you are free to move. Enjoy.
File edited (check for conflicts, combine if necessary): GLOBALS/GCCAMERAGLOBALS.GLOBAL.MBIN
Disclaimer: The mod will be packaged/comes in MBIN file type, this means it cannot be placed over things, it replaces the whole file, so if you have other mods that edit/use GCCAMERAGLOBALS file, then you have a conflict on your hands :) If you have LUA files for all the mods you can combine them into 1 by using AMUMSS. (provided each mod edits different values) If you have other mods that edit the same file, but come in the new EXML filetype, then make sure to setup your mod load order so all the EXML are loaded AFTER the MBINs, and they will work correctly. (just found out about this superpower today lol)
Game can't start with this mod on. Hope it gets updated. This mod was the biggest QoL for me. Always dreaded interacting with waypoints because of that camera thing until this mod.
Wish i just can turn black fade from white fade screen at any fking way-points...... I'm just worried about this mod cause back in the days (fall 2016 or first month of 2017) i rememb someone reported corrupt savegames with a similar mod. Maybe they was wrong...i dunno cuz i instantly removed the mod, you know...just in case..... I prefer to wait for someone to test it a bit Thnx btw Azzinoth224, the idea is really cool.
Does it still direct you to waypoints/areas of interest from beacons? I only had the chance to test it on one beacon and it did not add anything to my compass.
As far as I know waypoints point nowhere, they are just for saving. Beacons always point to a minor settlement. I tested the mod with beacons and observatories and both worked fine. If you notice it again please remove the mod load an earlier save and try the same beacon again without the mod if possible, to check if it is really caused by the mod and not default NMS. If you are sure report it as bug please.
