    Good catch, I hadn't noticed it.

    And it is fantastic.

    Yeah, I was playing with it a few nights ago, thinking "why haven't I used this feature, before?" It's a must for large toons.

    No, but you can choose a farther max zoom distance than the default, which is 30.

    I do it when fighting huge enemies, like Kigitilik, Mega D, Overseers, etc. Makes it easier to keep track of the dmg I do and when they're charging up for a big hit so I can block or spam some kind of dodge

    Good idea, I'm not really fighting cosmic entities all that often, but' I'll try it next time I do.

    Yeah, it's pretty useful when fighting the Spirit Serpent at the end of SL (Provided you have the patience to make it that far) and pretty much any open-world fight in Resistance.

    Yes, but his younger brother /camoffset (for shrunken toons) is still not returning my calls :mad:
    (it has a "horizontal" axis[1,2/-1,-2], but no "vertical")

    Literally the first thing I do on new characters after loading UI is to crank dat max. distance to full. I don't even know why you'd have it any lower.

    And that feature's been around forever, yes.

    Yeah, well, it wasn't there when I started, people.

    We had to make do with camdist binds, thanks.

    You don't have to be self-righteous and obnoxious about it.

    Yes, it wasn't in from the beginning. But it's been on quite awhile. Too lazy to dig the patch notes.

    And sorry for if i seemed self-righteous and obnoxious about it. Wasn't my intention.
