MaxCam

Table of Contents

Returns the max camera distance

Slash Commands: /mc, /maxcam

(Old video)

(Update 8/5) https://www.reddit.com/r/wow/comments/4w81l9/watcher_ion_hazzikostas_on_max/

(Update 9/17) in patch 7.1 the default UI slider was removed and the cvar renamed to cameraDistanceMaxZoomFactor

You can also use this command instead of this addon (in Classic)

/console cameraDistanceMaxZoomFactor 2.6

In reply to Sackramento:

Hi there, the camera indeed won't go past 39 yards. The Asmongold video in the description is an old video, Blizzard has already fixed the bug for unlimited zoom distance.

Sorry for any confusion.

Is there a way to change the Zoom Increment with a command or with a Cvar browser?

No, you need to prehook the zoom functions with a script or addon

Blizzard did not provide any command or CVar we could use

local increment = 4 -- default is 1 local oldZoomIn = CameraZoomIn local oldZoomOut = CameraZoomOut function CameraZoomIn(v) oldZoomIn(increment) end function CameraZoomOut(v) oldZoomOut(increment) end

Poll: What is the best max distance http://www.strawpoll.me/14091428

Are you satisfied with the current 39 yards distance or do you miss the old 50 yards distance?

just heared about this addon. Tryed it out but the max camera didnt change for me. Did blizzard break max camera addons or does it just need to be updated for 7.3 ?

Are you using DynamicCam?

MaxCam won't load if that addon is loaded, since DynamicCam has the same features and more

Ow, MaxCam indeed also won't work if FasterCamera is loaded since they are basically the same addon

This one borders on cheating but I'll give it a go.

The 50 to 1000 yards camera distance was only possible for one week in August 2016 if you read the reddit thread, now it's limited to 39 yards like any other addon

I did post those screenshots below but they were for nostalgic purposes and only taken during that time

There were no camera changes for this minor patch so there is no need for an update

So are we going to be getting an update for 7.1?
I know we can just issue the command once now, but I like the increased scroll speed.
