archer9 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) Is there a way to lock the map camera to a static position, e.g. over Whiterun? I read in this forum that there used to be a mod that did this over Riverwood, but I try as I might, I can't find it. I need this for my No GPS mod, because by default the camera always centers on the player's location, when the map is opened. I want to get rid of that.

Tamb0 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 (edited) Some of the map settings were moved from Skyrim.ini and hard coded into the exe. I don't think this can be done anymore. The players position will always be the centre of focus as soon as you press the map button. You can however lock the camera position and stop the camera panning left and right. the camera will start to look down towards the cell that the camera is locked to when you try to pan. Try these - In the My Documents\My Games\Skyrim\ open Skyrim.ini with Notepad. Look for the heading [MapMenu]. If it doesn't exist, create it at the bottom of the file. Add these lines under the [MapMenu] heading - fMapWorldYawRange=0.5000fMapWorldMaxPitch=20.0000 Next, open World > World Spaces... Highlight the world in the left hand window and then look over to the right for Cell Coordinates. In the 4 boxes underneath, set both the NW Cell X and SE Cell X to the same number ( x coordinate of the cell that the camera will be locked at), then enter the y coordinate in the other two boxes. If I wanted to lock the camera at cell 0, -32 then NW Cell X and SE Cell X will both have 0.NW Cell Y and SE Cell Y will both have -32. You can also set the Minimum Height and Maxumum Height of the camera on this screen. When the map key is pressed the camera will aim at the players location from 0,-32. If you try to rotate, the camera will start to look downwards and will lock on to cell 0,-32. That's about the closest your going to get.

archer9 Posted January 30, 2014 Author Share Posted January 30, 2014 (edited) I'm sorry, I taught it would lock your map height....I misunderstood, then :sad:It would lock the map height, but that's not what I am looking for. I have already done that in the latest version of my mod, by the way. What I was looking for here was locking the map to a specific position (in X and Y). @Tamb0; Okay, that sounds like something. I will try it out, thank you!! EDIT: Well, it does the job and that's a whole lot better than what we had before. Thank you! I will add your name to the credits.
