New update... mouse zoom fix?

General Discussion Started Last reply 19 posts
Ages ago people found programs, mods, and settings for inverting the mouse zoom. It was in the ini file but the encrypted one so doing so wasn't proper if you wanted to change it.

With the game now reaching a broader audience with the free to play model, is the setting for players to choose their zoom in and out finally going to be implemented?

When you play 6+ games all at the same time, and this is the only one that is different, it's extremely frustrating.

this really doesnt seem like a serious issue.
so the question is?

i can't mod my client to have increased zoom on more than a single instance of the game?

the OP wants to be able to Invert the mouse zoom, so that when the mouse wheel scrolls up, you zoom out instead of like now where you have to zoom out by scrolling down.
has it changed?
i never had a problem.

i can't get in game at the moment due to being away for thanksgiving.

but when i get back i'll at least know what he is talking about.

its apparently only a problem for people playing 6+ games at once.

not sure how we should understand that though. my computer can barely handle running 2 instances of L2, nevermind throwing windowed versions of skyrim, brink, wow, and hello kitty all at once...
i only have one account...
scary enough i'm sure.

i could probably handle multiple instances of the game...
but i never wanted to pay for more accounts.

now of course...
i have 5 days to get a new account to level 76...
go time!
First, the 6+ games I'm referring to is alternating between 6 different mmo's.

Second, In every MMO I've played, when you scroll your mouse wheel down, you zoom out. When you scroll up you zoom in.

However, in L2 it is inverted. Scrolling up zooms out, and scrolling down zooms in. So for many gamers who don't live to play only one game yes, this is frustrating.

I've seen threads, posts, mods, hacks, and articles in regard to this, and the people just get yelled at like "what's wrong with you"

However, this is a legit question and feature that is simple to add in. And with expanding goal of reaching more players I believe many people would be frustrated.

So, my question, with all the updates being done with G.o.D. is that are they going to add this switch into the settings while they are adding in all the other updates.

Not looking for flames here just if anyone knows.
i do get annoyed when i open up another game, and the mouse zooming is backwards.
they should all update to be like L2.

scrolling the way you describe is inverted... you're just looking at your mouse upsidedown.
actually lineage 2 is the inverted one :P
I like it how it is in l2, but anyways this reminded me of the other issue I have. Long time ago I used to see player names miles away from me, now you either need to move your mouse cursor over the player or click on it to see it.
Please tell me if I can sort this out in options, which I tried but no luck, or this was changed?


or nobody cares?

actually it is not decided yet who was first: egg or the chicken :rolleyes:

umm, mine already zooms out when I scroll up and zoom in when down. is yours different from mine by default?
Well I guess maybe we'll see at launch. With so many games out there, I love the Lineage 2 style, but for me personally (not for everyone) this is enough that I'd prefer to stick with more comfortable games if they don't add it in. Guess we shall see!

Thanks for the replies though.
Why would you change your zoom by using your mouse anyway? Just keep it on max, and use PgUp/PgDown to select the max range or first person view.

Hmm... putting CP spam on a freely rotating mouse wheel... I wonder if it's possible.
I don't think of it as broken.. it's been that way since the begining... Just cause other games do it the other way doesn't mean they are right and this method is wrong. I play games that use the style that you are used to and i play L2. It takes about 3 mistakes and then i'm used to the change. Once you play games that are diffent you'll get used to changing back and both really easily.
