Pan camera up and down

[Bobbs]

Please excuse me as I’m a complete noob, I mean a noob that’s only been playing 3 days.
A bit of background
My husband and I played EQ hardcore and for 9 years resided on the second top/top raiding guild on our server. Due to ill health we were forced to give up. We tried eq2 for a while and that was fine.
We have both been extremely ill of late, my husband to the extent that I thought I was going to loose him 8 weeks ago.
When he came home he said he’d like to game again but didn’t want to go back to EQ as it would feel odd being disabled and not being able to do what we used to. We decided to play WoW.
We just want to be able to potter about on our own and quest as we can. Grouping with others isn’t an option as we are too slow and are struggling with the key binds.
What’s killing us is not being able to look up or down as we used to. We don’t have quite the same mouse control as we used o so I’m trying to map as much to keyboards as I can.

Can anyone advise on the looking up/down mechanics. It was something I used a lot on EQ .
Can anyone advise what would be useful for 2 disabled noobs. My vision is crappy and we don’t have huge amounts of strength in our hands. For anyone that comes across us please excuse 2 dithery old crumbles and don’t yell at us as happened yesterday.

Hello and welcome!

There used to be an API function to pitch the camera up and down, but apparently this has been set to "protected", so it is no longer usable by custom code.
(https://warcraft.wiki.gg/wiki/World_...aft_API#Camera)

To best of my knowledge, your best chance would be to a custom view for looking up (or even several custom views for looking up more or less).

I'm a bit late to this party, but maybe this will still be of some help.

As LudiusMaximus said, you can Save and (re)set previously saved camera angles.
There are 5 possible settings you can save and reset. I think you could use two for looking up, two down and one forwadish.
The default game options already have keybinding for each setting and also keybindings for moving back and forth between the 5 settings.

Alternatively you could install an addon called ConsolePort, which enables yoy to use a console controller (such as that of a Playstation) to play WoW. I don't know whether that would make it easier for you, but I do suggest you check the addon's page, right here, on this site:

As to shouting at you, DON'T TELL ME TO CALM DOWN, IT P**SES ME OFF!
Just kidding, people here are pretty chill.

Best wishes for you and your husband!
