4:55 here I meant to say "parallel to the map" not "perpendicular" :P Also, if you look in the description I have stated which lines these parameters are on within the .LUA files.
Alix you are my new favorite person on the planet, this is gunna make DoW soooooo much more enjoyable for me and my friends. Been saying this game for over a decade and always hated the camera! Alix you are su.ply the best!!! Where are you in the UK? My mom is from Yorkshire (obviously the best place in England lol) but she came to Canada when she was 14 and here I am :)
Thank you so much for this lol. Man, I just could not figure out why it wasn't working for me and all I had to do was turn full 3D camera on this whole time...... You're a life saver.
I was having trouble getting this to work too, found out it was because of the mod I was running, "Tartarus and Lorn V Campaigns for Soulstorm" mod with the Optional addons (although I think that the addon does not matter). To run this mod you need to go to Game Manager and activate "Campaign Missions". So I guess you're basically running a different... expansion or game or version of the game or what ever you want to call it. This mod put a folder called "Campaignfixes" in the main Soulstorm folder. Which means that DXP2\Data isn't the right folder to put this in, it needs to go in "Campaignfixes\data". I assume other mods will have some other similar folder where you need to put these .lua folders. Hope this helps others.
Legend dude! Honestly, who thinks of making a youtube tutorial to show specifically this!? I looked on ModDb and couldn't find anything, then your video came along and you actually thought I'm going to make a whole youtube tutorial on this simple download drag & drop install. Legend dude! Thank you! haha
YOU JUST MADE MY DAY!!! I've returned to DoW with my buddies cause we're so far away from each other now and I cant do the camera default zoom in, cant believe I played it so much like that when I was young...hurts my eyes now and multiplayer is tough with the default view
Im actually having a lot of trouble getting the camera mod to work on my game. I have been trying for over 1 year to make it work. The information is this video seems inaccurate
Hey, question, does this mod work just as well for Dark Crusade, Winter Assault, and original Dawn of War? I want to play the campaigns in those games but the camera is too awful.
I was wondering why it wasn't working. Wish the mod author would've added that part where you have to turn on the 3d in the options menu. I'd have never known. Now to play vanilla soul storm.
Maybe silly question but if im only wanting to play the original Dawn Of War 1 do i do all this but just drag it into the folder for the game or do i need to install Soulstorm aswel?
I Installed Unification Mod and then did all the things you did but it does not work! I am still glued to the ground cause theres fog all over the place (I also clicked "disable fog" in the modmanager ver 2.1.6 but still doesnt change a thing) and if i scroll out fog and black polygons appear!
Hi, this tutorial is for vanilla SS. For Unification Mod, try install the camera mod into the Unification file in your soulstorm directory instead - Dawn of War Soulstorm\Unification_Bugfix\Data (I believe this is the correct file path). Please let me know if this works. I have a tutorial on how to remove fog here (but I don't know if it will work with Unification since ssstats was designed for vanilla SS): th-cam.com/video/W5n45hrl7gs/w-d-xo.html
How did you get rid of the fog? mine has fog if i zoom out the map just starts disappearing into what looks like fog until i can't see anything? Any way to fix this?
UA has its own camera mod - but yes, you can edit it (as shown in this video) or replace it with this camera mod. You just need to find out where it is saved in the UA files
Hi, I've just had a look and the latest version of Unification Mod (v4.68) comes with its own camera mod which should essentially be the same as the one I use in this video. Make sure that you turn on Full 3D-Camera in your in-game settings (see here 1:40). You can find the Unification Mod camera in your Soulstorm directory under Unification_Bugfix > Data, which you should be able to edit in the same way that I have shown here 2:43. If this doesn't work then I would suggest you ask on the Mod forum: www.moddb.com/mods/unification-mod-dawn-of-war-soulstorm

Im struggling to get the camera mod to work at all. am unistalling/ purging soulstorm as i think other mod files may have complicated things. after the reinstall i will try these steps, as i really wanna play some SS. (without the jank camera)
When you uninstall, are you deleting the files that remain in your installation directory? Need to delete this for a clean install - note that this will delete all of your colour schemes, replays, campaign & skirmish saves

Nickolas Vaessen I’m glad this video was of use to you. I have no idea how I used to play this game with the default camera :D
don't know why but it wont work for me i did what the vid said but still wont work any advice
It shows fog when I zoom out too far... but I don't see the same issue when you run it, why?
It's still a great mod in 2021. Thanks!

I did it and it works
Thank you bro, I was going to give up playing just because of the camera.😂
Exactly what i was looking for and even more. Thank you very much!
For soulstorm it zooms so far out that it shows fog, is there a way to clear that?
Yes, I have a tutorial for that too: th-cam.com/video/W5n45hrl7gs/w-d-xo.html
I think it's supposed to go into the Data folder within Engine, worked for me. Thanks

Dude appreciate it. That was really good. Thanks.
thank you, been playing with default camera very annoying i cant zoom out more so thanks works a treat, x
Is there a way to do the same for winter assault and original DoW ? I mean to make them not only square size.
i cant dowload it, i just clicked download, and then nothing happened. how is it like this
I’ve just tried and the download worked fine for me :( maybe blocked by your firewall?
thx so much this makes so much of a difference
Maybe silly question but if im only wanting to play the original Dawn Of War 1 do i do all this but just drag it into the folder for the game or do i need to install Soulstorm aswel?
@@jonessy5907 you can just drag into the DoW1 folder, no need to install the expansions
Thanks ALOT!=)
It worked for me:P
I cant seem to get the mod to work at all is there something im missing
Thanks for the video! This helped a lot, should of done this a long time ago lol!
Only works on steam right? I have the original and there is no 3d option
Thanks for this alixUK. You are a peach! :-)
Any idea how I can get these camera settings to work on the Tartarus and WA campaigns (on soulstorm added via the mod)
Some campaign mods add a new folder in your files “campaignfixes”, try put the camera mod files in campaignfixes/data instead of dxp2/data

@@alixuk2567 You are a livesafer brother, it really works. Thank you so much 🙏
I don't understand, I did everything in the video and it didn't work.
The Full 3D Camera option is there but it doesn't do anything
The full 3D camera sets a limit on how far you can zoom out (when it is turned off), you need to turn it on to use your modified limit
Are you using any other mods? UA or Unification for example?
Very helpful, thx man!
is the a way to change language from ruusian to english?
I love you! Thanks a bunch!
I wish i could use this, tried my best but my windows seems to overreact every time i attempt to change something. Tried everything i can
How do I get the camera to rotate? the mod works fine but camera doesn't rotate... is that another mod?
@@renatotoze hold down alt whilst moving your cursor
how to have a very slow camera rotation and tilt too
Look inside the camera mod file. There are parameters for control speed.
@@alixuk2567 thanks ^^
reinstalled after forever, could not get camera to zoom out. followed this. sorted
Does this work for Dark Crusade as well, or only the Soulstorm version of the game?
Yes, this works for all of the DoW1 games
yes it works with dark crusade as well, just got it working myself after testing it from the video.
How did you get rid of the fog? mine has fog if i zoom out the map just starts disappearing into what looks like fog until i can't see anything? Any way to fix this?

I have this game but it's on a disk and not on steam, is there a way to edit the camera in another way?
This mod also works for the disk version, just give yourself admin permissions to edit the game files
