About this project

What does Zoom Button - Reborn add?


Overview

Have you ever changed your Field of View graphics setting in your client to zoom in? Yup, that's pretty much all this mod does: it gives you a HotKey to temporarily drop your Field of View to the legal minimum of 20 and halves your mouse sensitivity.

Hold down the HotKey (default Z) to zoom. Release to zoom back out. Gox made a video explaining it all.  Check it out below!





Help Wanted

Furio's added even more functionality to this mod (better integration with other mods) by way of this add-on. Please add it as well and test it out, so we can get that additional stuff added directly to this mod sooner!

Zoom Button Patch - Vintage Story Mod DB

Thanks Furio!!



Troubleshooting

If for whatever reason the player hands don't reappear, this console command will revert them to visible: 

.clientconfig hideFpHands false

As for broken FOV or mouse sensitivity, go to

  • Settings > Graphics - Field Of View (default should be 70)
  • Settings > Mouse > Sensitivity (default should be 50)



Minor Known Issues

  • a soft-lock when zooming and opening the chat, the mouse gets captured but the chat is hidden. It solves itself by releasing Z.
  • an FOV glitch if zooming while using a Combat Overhaul Fork (latest version, reworked animations) ranged weapon, since those modify the FOV too and I think are reading a cached value. Anyway this also fixes itself and does not mess with the client setting permanently.
  • some third party mod elements are not hidden on zoom (i.e..SleepNeed, Hydrate or Diedrate)



Mod Configuration

If you want to customize this mod, see %appdata%/VintagestoryData/ModConfig/zoombutton119.json
