is there a way to slow the camera move speed during sailing?

[boocha]

is it possible to cut the speed that the camera moves around the ship in half or so , just so its not so fast -i understand its to get around the bigger ships easier, but i was wondering if it was possible and what files i shouold look into?

If you have taghmon's Euro controls stuff, in since build, um, 6?, then go to options->controls->edit mouse sensitivity, IIRC.

I could be wrong but in the PROGRAMSEA_AI folder there is a file called AICameras.c that controls the cameras at sea.
I think that the following entries control this particular view.
<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->// Ship camera paramerets
SeaShipCamera.Perspective = 1.285;
SeaShipCamera.SensivityDistance = 30.0;
SeaShipCamera.SensivityHeightAngle = 0.02;
SeaShipCamera.SensivityHeightAngleOnShip = 0.005;
SeaShipCamera.SensivityAzimuthAngle = 0.04;
SeaShipCamera.MaxAngleX = 0.2;
SeaShipCamera.MinAngleX = -1.4;
SeaShipCamera.Distance = 69.0;
SeaShipCamera.MinDistance = 25.0;
SeaShipCamera.Maistance = 70.0;
SeaShipCamera.MinHeightOnSea = 1.0;
SeaShipCamera.MaxHeightOnShip = 16.0;
SeaShipCamera.InvertMouseX = 1.0;
SeaShipCamera.InvertMouseY = -1.0;<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
If you only want to change the speed of that particular camera and not change anything else in the game then you could try changing some of the entries and see what they change.


NK's suggestion is the quickest and easiest way to change it, but it would effect the whole game.
If this works then it could let you change just that particular camera view and leave the others alone.

me apologies mates, i was talkin about the speed the camera 'walks' around on the deck while you are at sea, not so much the speed the camera turns around an such, anyways, thnks all and sirus, thnk you i found the deck_camera parameters right below the ones you pointed out and edited the sensitivity section like so:

SeaDeckCamera.SensivityDistance = 0.0065;//0.01;

where it used to be '0.01' now i made it '0.0065' n that makes me walk calmly onboard me ship instead of runnin around like in a panic thnks again

You're welcome, and I think that I'll make that change as well. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/onya.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="onya.gif" />

Already in the CVS, I just forgot to mention it.
