Can't you guys get one of the other modders to update it? Any modder will be able to,
I am not making mods myself anymore,I am using all of my time programming TW moddding tools , this one in particular:

for easy model/animation import/export, unit card icon creation, texture conversion, and etc. :)

Hey, passing by just to let you know that there´s no other camera for DEI, at all :)
phazer  [author] 2 Feb, 2022 @ 7:00am 
I do other things now, I code modding tools for TW, and I don't really have time to mess with this,
"But, are you sure it won't mess up the Reforms script???",
it will not mess it up, it you put the code the proper place, no, but you do need to know what you are doing.

MAYBE, if there is NO other camera for DEI, AT ALL, I could maybe update it,
or I could talk to the DEI guys, and ask them if they can include a camera,
(though they might well not listen to me:) )

maybe someday you have time can update for dei:steamhappy:
phazer  [author] 17 Jan, 2022 @ 4:46pm 
Drax, It WILL very likely mess something up, if you use this mod with the newer version of DeI,
you need to take the camera code out (2 lines) and put them in a the new version of the DeI LuA file, if you want to use it,
I should really take this mod down.

But, are you sure it won't mess up the Reforms script???
phazer  [author] 4 Jan, 2022 @ 12:20pm 
No, sorry, I don't have time, but it is pretty simple to do,
you just take the newest version of the LUA file from DEI (replace the LUA file in the MY .pack),
and then put the camera code in that,

Hello @Phazer !

Any chance of making a DeI latest 1.28 patch working update version?

Thanks!
RalphRoberts 27 Jul, 2021 @ 1:40pm 
right-O, thanks for the clarification!
phazer  [author] 27 Jul, 2021 @ 6:23am 
Actually, this mod might well not work right, as it edits the DeI scripts, and I have not updated it for a long time,
RalphRoberts 26 Jul, 2021 @ 1:27pm 
thinking about getting back into DEI... anyone know if this mod still works?
phazer  [author] 2 Dec, 2019 @ 3:39am 
Thanks...:)
Armysniper 26 Nov, 2019 @ 10:31am 
lol! Sounds good.

Thanks!
phazer  [author] 26 Nov, 2019 @ 9:20am 
I honestly can't remember, try both. But is should work on the campaign map without any setup changes.
Armysniper 25 Nov, 2019 @ 12:39am 
Do we need to check or un-check the 3 boxes in controls?
phazer  [author] 3 Sep, 2019 @ 4:03pm 
@everyones :
Here is 3dx max playing an animation that my program has extracted from Rome2:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcJI_DM-BR4

I have finally gotten animations OUT of Total War games, so people can edit them and put them back in the game My program RigidModel Editor 1.0, that can do those things will be released as soon as correct the last few bugs. It can do lots of thingd, including drawing the models with textures, lighting normal mapping, so they look like in-game.
phazer  [author] 23 Aug, 2019 @ 5:22am 
Thanks :)
Iolaus 22 Aug, 2019 @ 10:36pm 
of coursei will, you got some of the best mods for TW, thanks
phazer  [author] 20 Aug, 2019 @ 6:48am 
IIllyrian: Yeah, I know those angle shift near the ground look really good, and I have tried to replicate them in non-super low zoom = normal campaign cam mods. But for some reason, the different DLCs react differently on the parameters of zoom and tilt, so I could not just copy them into the other DLCs AND factions. But when I have time I will try and update the DeI and Vanilla campaign cam to have that type of "tilt" near the ground. BUT it would still be cool for me, if you who use the mod(s) now, could spread the word a bit? So I can get some more users? :)

Ok I just did some testing with all your camera mods, this one still works for DEI without breaking their population system.

Your 2 new camera mods for patch 20 work well for Vanilla, but I was wondering why when you zoom to the ground, it doesn't tilt up to the horizon like your earlier cam mod "Very Low Camera BETA"
That horizon tilt is the best part of you cam mods, being that low to the ground and being able to see everything around you is awesome
phazer  [author] 19 Aug, 2019 @ 8:51am 
But is it causing problems now? I asked Dresden and the rest of the DeI team whether this version of the cam mod would cause conflicts, they said it should not, but they were not sure, I think.

If there ARE problems with the mechanics and this mod, I shall update it,
Iolaus 17 Aug, 2019 @ 7:08pm 
awesome thanks a lot
phazer  [author] 12 Aug, 2019 @ 6:14pm 
@everyone: i need to update the camera soon, because it works by making tiny changes to their scripts, and I need to the newest scripts of course. BUT in the meantime, there is is little trick: enable the campaign cam mod in Rom2, zoom ind and out, then SAVE that game, and then restart rome2 witht the cam mod switched OFF, and then load the file from before, it should now have the extended range in the save game, so you kan now just forget about mod and conflicts. Try that and tell me if it works for you:
phazer  [author] 11 Aug, 2019 @ 6:48am 
Don't know, but I should update it.
Iolaus 3 Aug, 2019 @ 8:33pm 
DEI just got major update today bro, everything still look ok with your mod ?
8-The-General-8 15 Jul, 2019 @ 1:56pm 
ok thanks very much
phazer  [author] 15 Jul, 2019 @ 5:47am 
I am not changing brightness at all in the mod, try celticus HD ligthing mod.
Btw I need to told when DEI upgrades to a new version, because then I have to update the mode too, so there are no conflicts
8-The-General-8 14 Jul, 2019 @ 9:41pm 
Looks good. Is it possible to make it less bright?

Thanks Phazer for making this mod.
phazer  [author] 9 Jul, 2019 @ 6:55am 
I am sorry to ask again, but have anyone had ANY problems with the mod? I have to update the mod everytime DeI changes those LUA scripts, that the camera stuff is in.
phazer  [author] 17 Jun, 2019 @ 8:15am 
Glad you like it :) Please report any problems or bugs :)
bloodeagle94 17 Jun, 2019 @ 4:26am 
Ok cool thanks phazer
phazer  [author] 13 Jun, 2019 @ 4:45pm 
It should be save game compatible, but you should still try it out and check in your situation before you save over something really important.
bloodeagle94 11 Jun, 2019 @ 9:26am 
Hey I think and feel like i'm being daft asking this, but does this mod just change the zoom in the campaign or are there other features too? Also is it save game compatible? I'm kinda assuming it would be, but just want to be certain :) Sorry i'm a bit of a nab with the modding part, but I didn't want to try it just in case.
Thanks
phazer  [author] 10 Jun, 2019 @ 12:37am 
uh?:)
Ratnips 9 Jun, 2019 @ 12:48pm 
this mod is very good to where i have nutted with 5 times within just 20 minutes of this mod wish i could do this with my girlfriend but i would have an affair with your mod any day PS pp is my penis
phazer  [author] 9 Jun, 2019 @ 8:32am 
But the files are all taking from the newest version of of DeI of should therefore not cause problem.

I am working on a version that only changes the "___start.lua" files, that should be even saver, but I still do no know if it works and zooms for all factions.
phazer  [author] 9 Jun, 2019 @ 8:30am 
The following files were edited in this version of the mod:

under folder: campaigns:

folder: main_3c
scripting.lua

folder: main_emperor
emp_start.lua

folder: main_gaul
scripting.lua

folder: main_greek
pel_start.lua

folder: main_invasion
scripting.lua

folder: main_punic:
pun_start.lua

folder: main_rome
scripting.lua
PurrrrC 9 Jun, 2019 @ 2:21am 
I'm with the guy below me, we need to know what it actually does.
Mr.Proper 9 Jun, 2019 @ 12:57am 
How about you put something in the description about what you actually changed? I miss a list of features here.
phazer  [author] 8 Jun, 2019 @ 10:38pm 
You mean population? What faction are you playing as when this happens?
phazer  [author] 8 Jun, 2019 @ 10:10pm 
What is is pp? I


s very very unlike that it changes the behaviour of the game, as I have use the files FROM the game to make sure that would not happen.
Ratnips 8 Jun, 2019 @ 9:26pm 
this mod makes my pp large
phazer  [author] 8 Jun, 2019 @ 7:18pm 
everyone: Btw would you like this mod to zoom lower?
phazer  [author] 8 Jun, 2019 @ 7:16pm 
@everyone: hi guys, I am sorry to keep asking this, but can't you rate the mod "thumps up" if you like/use it, please :)
phazer  [author] 6 Jun, 2019 @ 10:42pm 
Thanks:)
el wulfman 6 Jun, 2019 @ 4:07pm 
well it work good for me. much needed dei mod.
phazer  [author] 6 Jun, 2019 @ 1:02pm 
Ok, thanks, in particular that part "but also necessary to a lot of us.", that is nicee to hear. Let me hear what else you could need in mods, i often make the mods people ask for.
Iolaus 6 Jun, 2019 @ 11:19am 
he's probably just a little kid who probably doesn't understand the mod... dont worry about it just keep up to good work, your mods are not just good, but also necessary to a lot of us.
This is a basic mod that you either need or don't need so there's really nothing to dislike, I have no idea why anybody would downvote it
phazer  [author] 6 Jun, 2019 @ 11:15am 
There is someone who has given me a negative rating (an no comment), is there something wrong/not good with the mod, that you want changed, or it that guy just troll?
Iolaus 6 Jun, 2019 @ 11:07am 
wow thanks, and I think DEI has it's own Battle Camera so there's probably no need for you to waste time making another one. All battle cameras are pretty much the same anyway
