This WoW AddOn is dedicated to all movie makers.
The goal of CameraPlus is to switch into a 'Movie mode' with a binded key: when this movie environment is engaged, user defined specific WoW UI parts - like names, chat bubbles, combat msg... - can be shown or hidden and camera movements speed can be adjusted, so you can make soft panoramic camera mouvements at desired speed.
- keys can be binded to continuous horizontal or vertical camera rotations
- keys can be binded to continuous zoom in and out
- adjustable rotation and zoom speed (settings UI)
Open the standard shortcut panel (keybindings) and bind keys for CameraPlus.
Type /cameraplus to display settings UI and /cameraplushelp to display available slash commands.
Furthermore, out of the 'movie environment', CameraPlus can increase max camera distance to 30 yards (instead of 15) within the settings UI.
Remember to engage the movie environment to make your changes effective. When you leave the movie environment, settings are reset to their previous values, except of course the out of 'movie environment' settings.
If some of your settings are lost, for example target circle is no longer visible, just click on the "Default" button in the settings UI.

Sometimes, oddly, some settings get mixed up using your addon here and basically it makes my mouse zoom speed permanently the slowest it can be set to, outside the film mode. This is more then a bit frustrating, as I must wait a few minutes to scroll in and out...
This has happened before and uninstalling or defaults settings here and there does nothing. It tends to happen when I go in and out of film mode, but not always and I can't reproduce this.
What is the name of the setting in the config file that this corresponds to, so i can set it manually.
Originally posted by blick i downloaded it and its confusing. i just had some questions. Is the video enviroment "filming"? and where do the videos get saved?
Whole your addon idea came to my mind a few days ago, but with another great idea which you can read here: http://www.wowace.com/forums/index.php?topic=14183.0 , the UIParent2 part
I believe movie makers would be grateful if that could be integrated in the addon.
Im kinda a noob with this thing so i just wanted to know if any1 here know what the default movie mode key is, if there is none then how do i set a new one?
There's one feature I'm looking for that I really hoped this mod would have, but it doesn't. It's to be able to change the height of the camera focus. The default camera in WoW focuses on the middle of your character. I'd like to change this so that it focuses a bit above your character. This is because the bottom half of my screen is usually only covered with terrain, while I sometimes have issues with the top half of the screen to see what I want in the horizon. Do you think you could add such a feature?
