From my N'Tak' Tweaks series: Camera / Horse / Music / Talks / Time,
These mods are meant to be lightweight and with minimal scripts merging impact, they affect only a few lines in the vanilla code.
The configuration is made user-friendly with an in-game menu, allowing to tweak as you wish.
If you like my works, please consider endorsing. Thank you ! :)
To support me further, you can donate here or even become a patreon.
N'Tak' Camera is designed to alter only the “main/exploration” camera. Zoom-in or out, vertical and horizontal offsets.
That's my perfect fit to alter only the main camera with minimal (or none) scripts conflict.
Ok, I admit I also “fixed” the Focus camera… If you setup the main camera to be on the left, the Focus camera will be as well !
Since v1.2, I also want to reduce the motion sickness that can be caused by the game camera movements :
Camera bob effect is tweakable, and finisher camera animation can be disabled.
INSTALLATION, EASY PEASY !
⋅ Drop the content of the zip in your Witcher 3 installation directory.
⋅ Got other script-mods ? Use the Script Merger. There should not be many conflicts.
⋅ To use the configuration menu in Next-Gen, make sure to add the line "modNTakCamera.xml;" in the lists files (dx11filelist.txt and dx12filelist.txt) in the folder “bin\config\r4game\user_config_matrix\pc\”.
CONFIG' MENU: TWEAK IT YOUR WAY
The mod adds the file modNTakCamera.xml to the “bin\config\r4game\user_config_matrix\pc\” folder.
The config' menu can be found in-game, through the main menu → Options → Mods → N'Tak' Tweaks → Camera.
Check the screenshot of the configuration menu in the images section to see all the options.
→ A csv file is available in case you want to do the translation for your language.
WHY THIS MOD ?
I was preparing my next playthrough by installing a lot of mods !… Thanks to you all, you're amazing ! :-)
… And I wanted to bring the camera closer to Geralt for better immersion.
With currently ~200 mods installed, I needed something lightweight to prevent problems while merging scripts.
HudCloseCam was really close to what I wanted, but I didn't like the camera parameters values.
So, I started by tweaking the hard-coded values in the script, but it became annoying really fast to have to reboot the game each time.
Hard-coded values ? Meh. Config' menu ? Yay !
I finally created a menu, rewrote the code, and corrected the Focus camera… and decided to share my little piece of work with you, guys.
I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I do !… :-)
