Camera Z-Axis

from Elemental Forums

In WoM you could lower the camera practically to be parallel with the ground giving you an awesome view of forests and swamps, as well as giving you a better appreciation for the height of towers in your cities and mountain ranges.

Does anyone know how to lower the camera Z-Axis in FE so we can get this effect back?

Did you turn off zoom limiting in advanced options? That's the only thing I can think of.

Haven't tried that, but I doubt that would have much to do with it since this isn't a "zoom" issue.

You should also turn off camera snap-back when rotating option (under advanced)

Then you should be able to hold middle mouse button and move the camera to your desired position.

But I don't think you can get it a on the ground view that you are looking for without some editing of files.

That's what I assume I would need to do.  There must be some config file that handles the camera z-axis limits.
