Hey all, I hate using scopes and sights in Fallout 4, aside from the Reflex Sight, because when I'm using my primary weapon for long-range shooting and somebody comes up to me, I have no option to iron-sight aim at them without the scope becoming active and suddenly I'm studying the specks of dirt on the buckles of their armour, which throws my sense of direction off, means I miss more, and just generally annoys me. The Reflex Sight gives me good mid-range zooming (in my opinion, or IMO as the cool kids say) while also not being so zoomed in that I can't deal with things right in front of me, but sometimes I want to make a long range shot and I miss four or five times because I'm too zoomed out to hit the target. Other games that have a heavy focus on first-person shooting have scopes with adjustable zoom levels. I would like a mod that adds this into Fallout 4. If you'd like some starting ideas, every weapon that could have a scope should be able to have this adjustable scope on it as well. I'd be fine if it costs considerably more materials than all other scopes (might I suggest the highest cost of any current scope plus half as a starting point? It could be higher, do what you think you need to to retain game balance) and is likewise with its cap value. I'd appreciate if the levels can go from 0.25x magnification (effectively Iron Sight aiming) to the highest magnification available on any other scope. If you want to make any changes to those concepts, go ahead, I'll still use it because it's miles better than a non-adjustable scope any day. If you decide to pick this idea up, thank you so much!

I understand that there is a mod for XCOM Enemy Uknown, which has several features including this, locking the camera zoom out when the player zooms out. However, I'd like this option for XCOM 2. I'm not looking for an arsenal of options and features, just this ONE feature: To permanently lock the camera zoom out when I zoom out. If anyone knows how to do this, I'd be very grateful for the mod or even for tips to make it myself. Thank you.

Hy, i don't know if everyone got this effect, but when i'm running, the camera zooms out a bit und starts a fisheye perspective. Thats annoying, less the fisheye then the outzooming. Has anyone any advise how to get rid off the outzoom while running? Didn't found anything with google, help would be super. mfg

First off, I hope this is in the right section. I'm not a frequent user of this forum. Not sure if any one remembers me posting this a while ago (hence the badly-named thread title). I had an issue which I couldn't quite work out. Basically all my controls will stop responding out of nowhere. My character will start moving differently (his arms stuck down his sides and running like he's dancing a jig, as I'd describe it), my mouse buttons stop working (can't bring up PipBoy, equipped weapon, aim, etc) and my keyboard becomes unresponsive (escape doesn't work, neither does quick-saving). If I'm in first person, scrolling out with the mouse wheel causes my character to flicker where you can briefly see him in third person. Well it's still happening. Since my previous post, I gave up with it and stopped playing NV. Only recently I was missing the game, so I started playing again, hoping the issue had resolved, but no. It's still there, kicking off randomly when after I've played a lengthy amount on a new save. A couple of points that I think are relevant: 1. It happens on a new save (I have several hard-saves, though I usually start over when I install/remove mods). When I started playing again I started fresh saves, I also removed some mods I didn't fancy anymore and installed some new ones, starting fresh each time. 2. No errors listed in LOOT, no mod conflicts, I carefully install mods and test them out, and remove mods that don't work. 3. I get no problems early on in a new save; 100% of the time when it's happened I've been level 15+...this may be a coincidence, but it's happened like that each time...I have no problems up until I've been playing for several hours and levied up a lot, and then it starts occurring. 4. I don't have an overload of large mods and I don't install rubbish, mainly small fixes, tweaks and additions. I do run the game with FNV4GB as I have a large graphic overhaul mod as I find the vanilla graphics/texture unappealing, and I also have NVSE as I use a few mods that require it. 5. I have FOOK which is one of the bigger mods I have, I'm wondering if that's part of it, whether the game's camera is conflicting with FOOK, or if there's a line of text in the game.dat (I believe it's called) notepad file that's enabled and shouldn't be. Again these are my speculations so they're just "maybe it's this...". 6. It's not hardware related. My mouse is virtually new and my keyboard, though I've had it for a while, works 100% and does not play up or have connection issues ever. Everything's connected correctly to my PC and I don't use plugged-in controllers. This time I recorded it in action using my tablet. I had to do it with one hand as I couldn't find my tablet stand, plus it was late at the time, so please excuse the average recording quality. I also quickly ran the video through Sony Vegas Pro and added text, in yellow text (best option I could find) on the screen giving details: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mW00y0mUXKI In the video I was in the Deathclaw Promontory (as you probably worked out), just happily killing Deathclaws when the issue started up. I was level 27 or so, the longest I've ever played without this weird issue happening. I cut out the remaining 20 seconds or so of video, as it showed nothing of interest apart from me backpedaling away helplessly from a Mother Deathclaw which had magically spawned after I reloaded a save, and since I can't do anything with my character except for slide around awkwardly I force-closed the game. I hope I can get this sorted. If you wish to have more video of it happening then let me know, and I'll go and record some more of it when I have the time and upload it to YT and link it here.

Is there a way to change the zoom out effect of the third person camera? Anytime I look down at something, like a corpse to pick up their items, the camera goes way back and I can't get the menu to show up that has the person/objects inventory. Any fixes to this? Is there a mod? I just want to camera distance to stay put and let me pick up things. I like playing in third person since I spend enough time worrying about what my character looks like. Let me know if you have any suggestions! Thanks!

This is a simple problem that I hope has a similarly simple solution. The title more-or-less says it all. When talking to a custom NPC I've developed, the dialogue zooms in way too close to their face and makes their head take up the player's entire field of view. All I'm looking to do is bring the zoom back to default levels. Has anyone else run into this before?

So this is a really difficult issue to explain as I've been googling it for about an hour and have found no answers. I recently started a new game and I've decided to use power armor this time. I just noticed what I think might be a glitch when in first person but having barely used power armor before I'm not sure if it's something on my end or it's just the game. Basically whenever I enter the pipboy while in power armor in first person then exit, the screen slightly adjusts the zoom or fov, almost as if it had to change when going to into the pipboy and then change again upon exit. The problem is it's not subtle at all. I'll sit still and it'll take maybe a second or so after closing the pipboy to readjust and it's like a 'pop' effect. I've tried disable all my mods (especially the hud ones), resetting the ini files, etc but it always seems to happen so I'm wondering if anyone else can replicate this. To clarify, the zoom is very small but still noticeable maybe a couple centimetres all the way around the screen that gets cut off after the slight zoom. I tried this when in third person and it doesn't occur.

Hello all! I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction. These are a couple of things I'd like to change either for myself, or possibly a mod later on for everyone: 1. Camera Tactical. In X4 missions (Gatecrasher, Advent Facilities), an animation plays when the soldier places the explosive charges. I feel the zoom on the camera is too up close, and would like to back out a little. Makes me feel a tad claustrophobic. 2. Camera Customization/Armory. When customizing soldiers, the camera moves, zooms, and plays around depending on what you're changing. Hair, eyes, facepaints, etc., the camera zooms in closer to the soldier's face. Changing Legs? The camera zooms to see the full body shot. Anything else? Camera defaults back to position. It is this position that I would like to change. I've been making lots of tattoos, and the zoom level on this default camera is too far away to see details (to my tastes). So I would like this default camera to be closer, a medium shot, or maybe even create a new camera for tattoos, that just like face customization options, it zooms in closer to see our work/results. 3. Ant-Farm Camera. Wheel scrolling allows us to zoom in, but there's a limit. Any way to change this limit so we can zoom in further? Thank you for reading and I hope anyone of you can help me. Have a great day!

Patch 1.20 (1.21) introduce zooming for item detail descriptions (pressing left analog stick on xbox pad). Playing the PC version on TV is quite hard. Now it's definitely a little more usable. But this would be nice for several things like books and long texts in general. Does anyone know if it would be possible to add the same scaling/zooming to other assets like book texts?

So I'm a big Elder Scroll fan, and now I'm playing inquisition. It a great game, but what anoys me is how far I have to stand from my character. Is it posible to make a mod that chances the normal camera to a camera that zooms in more? Like the max zoomed in camera in Skyrim's 3rd person? I tried it with a cheat engine table I found, but it did not work, further I could only find a mod for conversation, with which I have no problem and a first person mod. Is it posible someone around here could make this? For now I'm working with the first person mod zoomed out one bit, and the closer conversation mod with settings at 18 to keep conversation 3rd person. However if anyone could make this in one simple mod, on a way that the character is a bit to the side like in Skyrim (I'm seeing a lot less because I'm in the middle now), it would be most apriciated. Many thanks already, Jessica Below is a picture of the Skyrim camera I mean. http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Y4P-hyP5ucE/maxresdefault.jpg

Hello, i was already using about 15 mods, but now when i started a new game i have added some more. But suddenly in this new game, my pip-boy is kinda zoomed out and its very small and hard to see, still can use it tho, but you know its very annoying. I didn't change my FoV and my only pip-boy mod is higher resoltion map, which was working perfectly without any bug for weeks. I could try to disable those mods and test it in game everytime, but it would take ages just to load saves and stuff... Can you please look at screenshot what mods im using and what could possibly interfere with pipboy size? P.S.: didnt find anything on google, theres just people complaining about zoomed-in pipboy, thats not my case. http://i.imgur.com/4iMrADz.png

Is this possible? If so, would it need to be in the form of a mod? If so, then will someone please give me a link or make one? :)

Hey folks, I updated a bunch of mods via Nexus mods manager and now my first person views gone all haywire. It looks "zoomed out", half th bodys missing, and when i mive and stop, the screen carries on moving vertically, up or down. I've disabled various mods but to no avail. I've attached a screenshot - any help or pointers will be greatly appreciated. let me know if you need more info. Thanks Evren

Hello everybody. I'm not experienced at this. I have Mod World Map Unlimited Zoom installed (using Nexus Mod Manager). I have it enabled as well. But it does doesn't work. However... I also have "All Quest Objectives On Map" installed. If I disable that, then the unlimited zoom works again. Question: how do I make them work together in a fruitful manner? I think the developer tried to explain but I don't understand any of it. Sorry for that. So maybe somebody is willing to help me out in a more noob-friendly way. Thank you so much.

Has anyone made a sniping mod that lets you zoom Recon scopes, by scrolling up and down on the scroll wheel to zoom in and out, or using the "[ and ] keys and just mapping them?

You're able to use T and G to zoom in and out to get a wide or zoom view of your characters. You're also able to hit the middle mouse to quickly zoom to max view, however, by default when you release the mouse button the game returns back to a default zoom level, zoom level 3 (out from max detal) if you will, regardless of what zoom level you were previously playing at. I feel that it would be an easy tweak to make this default zoom be whatever zoom level you were at previously. It's such an annoying oversight that I can't not notice it now. However it's been over a decade since I've done any modding. Anyone able to throw this together or tell me where I might start looking?

Seeing so little of the map when fully zoomed out is rather annoying. Does anyone know of any mods that increase how much you can zoom out. If not, can someone make this mod. I don't really have the technical know how to mod, and am waiting for the G.E.C.K to make a start. :/

I really hate this and i would really love for it to disappear, i find it insanely disruptive.

Hi everyone i had an idea while playing Mass Effect 3 but i know nothing of making mod. And i did not see any mods doing what i really want. My idea is a mods that make the Right Click(trigger) Zoom closer to the character head. This way the camera could be less closer when not aiming. And Zoom in a lot more when aiming. Like Many Action T.P.S do right now. tomb Raider, Gears of war, Mass Effect. Uncharted. I think it would make the third person more enjoyable. I am using Dynamic camera to change camera position. I also don't think its really hard I would say its only number change somewhere in the BSA files. For Examples http://img.qj.net/uploads/articles_module/72426/chainsaw_qjpreviewth.jpg Both are working great. anyway Thanks for anyone who will try to do it or maybe give me help on how to do it. I am gonna search for a way to do it myself. Have an nice day everyone.

I think it would be great if we could zoom in more on the map.

So I have a big tv (65 Inch) And i use it as my computer monitor. The problem i am having is that when i use TES5Edit to do something the letters and all are so small that sometimes i have to go stand next to my screen to make clear of some texts or i really have to look carefully on the distance (AND my sight is perfectly fine) SO is there a way to change TES5Edits resolution or some another way to zoom in the texts. Really need some help my eyes can't take this too much :/(

At this time there is no minimap zoom mod working for next-gen. Please someone do this favor for us.

HI, i wasn't successful finding a mod which does precisely what i want. Anyone know how to trick the game to disable 3rd person camera? I would like to force the player into a FPS. Is there a simple gamesetting command e.g. to disable zoom available?

Hello! I’m trying to get a zoom in/zoom out function for a custom headgear. I can imagine that it will have some thing to do with changing the FOV for the 3rd and 1st person view (if one will change only 1st person FOV than your hands and weapons will be visible in zoom in mod) What sort of script should I use for this, has anyone done this before or something like this?(obviously unofficially, quz there is no mod out there that will do that, trust me, I’ve checked) Will anybody be so kind and direct me through this difficult process? Thank you so much my friends and neighbours :laugh:

Anyone know the ini command to change scanner zoom levels? I want the scanner to also work like binoculars and allow me to see objects for away. Thought a mod for this already existed, but can't seem to find it.
