I'll try it later, cheers.

Ah, so you can't really change it before playing Trebia, only after the battle has started! That seems like a glitch, but as long as it works. Thanks Sjakihata!

What about the Right-click thing... is that also changeable?

**RTKLamorak** · 08-24-2004, 15:10

a fix?!?

but, blaming CA is so much more fun...

NOT!!!

can a mod change the title to something like 'How to enable original Total War camera'?

**Gregoshi** · 08-24-2004, 15:37

Thank you, thank you, thank you Sjakihata! I'm very happy now. Though it makes me wonder what the "Options" menu item is for if you have to do you settings changes in-battle.

BTW, send a PM to Catline and he'll change the title for you. I've no mod powers in this forum.

Its still not the proper camera.
It is deeply frustrating having to use the keyboard to adjust the camera angle

There are a couple of tweaks available in the preferences.txt

CLASSIC_CONTROL:FALSE

Change to TRUE to enable right click & drag to turn the camera.
It also gives you left click attacks.
Unfortunately it doesn't change left click to click & drag units, leaving it on selection box which used to be a right click & drag with shift (? or something like that) and that makes it rather useless.

CLASSIC_UI:FALSE

Change to TRUE & it seems to be trying to run the unit flags more like S & M, though it doesn't work properly in this demo so also not very useful.
