LE User interface for camera control

[MysteriousGuy]

Skyrim is missing its cinematic feeling. Sure there are lots of mods that make environment look more cinematic or realistic (ENB mods) and there are mods that make characters realistic looking, but whats the point in all that if you can't see things from close perspective?

 

Skyrim story would be better told if you could see some better camera movements where player is not always center of action.

There is this mod called Face to Face and its great mod. That mod finally gives the feeling that you are inside the world and talking with other people (instead of just seeing your toon standing next to some other npc that pops up few lines of text).

Although this mod is great its very simple and limited, but it shows that things can be made.

 

So the idea of a mod:

 

Mod should give new simple and clean user interface (addon) that could be started by hotkey or a script event.

 

User interface gives the ability to control camera movement where focus is on player or on other things (NPCs, environment)

This could be used for sightseeing or checking that super new armor mod that NPC is wearing from up close, or maybe just watch as NPC is doing his every days work (choping wood) from cinematic perspective and not constantly player perspective.

 

Interface should be able to do things automaticly. For example if you want to see your char in new armor you would probably want to have camera rotate slowly all around your character and changing hight or zoom. For example there could be preview armor button on user interface that would start a script with all camera commands neccessary.

 

With this you could change focus on player or npc during conversation or that could be done automaticly as well.

 

This mod is very possible to make, as a proof of concept there are Race Menu, Face to face, SKY UI and other user interface mods.
