Game Mechanics: Mouse Scroll 3rd person

[kenzar]

Not a classic/kunark function. We don't have compasses or maps for the same reason, mouse scroll 3rd person function should be broken to align the server with a more classic feel.

Probably a client side thing not going to be changed. A lot of UI related stuff can't be changed because of the client we use.

i played since beta and always had mouse scroll 3rd you just had to be in the right view setting to use it but it was possible and did work

[kenzar]

eqmac lacks the function and I was told it was because it was not in the 03 code. afaik they use the same client so I think it should be possible to make this change.

[lolondar]

eqmac always lacked VERY certain fuctions taht were available on Orig

I think the mouse scroll-zoom out thing was patched in about 2003 (Luclin). I remember having to spam F9 key (to look at my surroundings) before it came into being.

[lolondar]

yea but once you were in the right view you could scroll it in and out either way

[kenzar]

Unless the right view is first person, the default view then what is currently available isnt classic

[cyryllis]

probably the least important of all the non classic things to change. Camera angles? Seriously?

Oh and a compass was? If you dont have anything constructive to add please subtract yourself from the thread.
