Supreme Commander In Game Views...

BFG_9000 · 8 May 2007 at 00:06

Just bought Supreme Commander, looks a good game...but my only gripe is the in game camera views, holding the space bar down you can pan the battlefield with the mouse to get a better view on whats going on... but when the space bar is released the camera rotates back to its default setting, 9/10 it rotates away from the battle... My question is, can the in game camera view be set to a fixed view direction without having to use the spacebar, similar to C&C3 controls... Cheers

I think the insert and delete keys rotate the camera so it sticks. Its some of those 6 buttons anyway....

Tried delete key whilst holding space bar etc and camera still rotates back to default once released, can't believe there isn't no fixed game view...

I use the scroll wheel and nothing else. If you need to move somewhere else, zoom out, move mouse to new place, zoom in.

its home and end i believe, no need to hold space either, and it stays at that angle

Theres a ctrl+ command that unlocks the screen. It removes things like health bars etc but the view will stay where you set it.

Try Ctrl+v, though that might be too easy.

ctrl + v it is

once that is pressed, use the space bar function as normal, but at any zoom level and it will also not go back to its original angle once released

Thanks for your help, loaded game up and ctrl+v works a treat...

I can now see what I am attacking... Cheers M8 :cool:

Is there an option to make the game window bigger, mabey reducing the boarder around the screen... Thanks again for your help.

Theres a few mods out that should do that for ya, look thru the official thread for linky's

Alt + uparrow or downarrow will cycle through the different HUD options... one will probably be to your liking
