Freecam Mod for 8.10

Posted on by

Source: wot-news.com

Hello everyone,

some of you might find this useful I think. This is a mod, that allows you to do this:

ft4_1

As you can see, you are looking at the enemy base while your tank is still in yours. This mod allows you to move the camera freely (however, it does seem to conflict with some other mods). You can also view the entire map from a new perspective:

ft4_2

Now, here’s a downside. This mod can be used only in replays and it doesn’t reveal anything you wouldn’t otherwise see (enemies etc) – no cheating for you! But clanwars and company commanders and moviemakers could find it very useful.

How to install:

Copy it in your World of Tanks mod folder (example: С:\Games\World Of Tanks\res_mods\0.8.10\gui\)

How to use:

- start a replay
- wait until the countdown (battle start) finishes
- click twice with LMB
- press Caps+F3 to “untie” the camera from your tank
- profit!

Controls:

- Shift+N enables/disables aiming reticle (enable to see the center of the screen)
- W,A,S,D moves the camera
- Q,D or mouse wheel makes the camera go up or down
- Ins, Del zooms the camera
- V disables the game interface
- 1,2,3 etc. sets the camera movement speed
- P activates the smooth camera flight
- X levels the camera with the ground
- CAPS+Z enables the vehicle markers while the interface (V key) is disabled)

It was tested with 8.10, not sure if it works with 8.9

  1. As far as i know, tree cam mods are illegal if used in online battles. Replays are fine, but it’s dodgy.

          • what lets you think this ? it doesnt necessarily have to be one … you can make replay of live battles as well you know? there is no evidence for or against your statement I know but we should believe it … also try it out yourself … I did and it did not work :)

              • Not sure if its replay or real batle, cuz when u open replay show the fps that u got in the real game and the fps that u are geting that the moment u are running the replay, or maybe that happens just for some people like me…

                • True, don’t really get why you you’re not capable of informing yourself before writing such a bold statement in your first post, Jimbo.

                • @pokapokami – It’s a knee-jerk reaction to exploits used in the past which are similar. Without somebody who goes and actually tests and provides feedback the assumption would continue to be the same.
                  Either way, no harm no foul.

  2. Thanks a lot, Frank,

    I think it can really be usefull when doing some replay-videos. Will give it a try when my holydays start at 1st january :)

  3. this mod has been around for a while now Ive used it before also Woras uses this mod :)

    thanks though couldnt find a working one since the 8.9 patch :)

    • Wish I had my hands on WG official one :D 8.10 trailer show that free camera have new options – stick to tank in specific view.

        • WG thinks that free camera mod will confuse players – because most of them are dumbfucks.
          Thx dumbfucks for ruining every game :D

        • never mind i got it :) still it doesnt have the option to lock onto a tank and let the camera move e.g. with the turret and barrel so that the barrel is seen in the exact same spot just like on the trailer

          • Just for the rest of you guys out there here is the updated useage:

            How to use:

            - start a replay
            - wait until the countdown (battle start) finishes
            - click twice with LMB
            - press CapsLock+F3 to “untie” the camera from your tank
            - profit!

            Controls:

            - Shift+N enables/disables aiming reticle (enable to see the center of the screen)
            - W,A,S,D moves the camera
            - Q,D or mouse wheel makes the camera go up or down
            - Ins, Del zooms the camera, F sets standard FOV back
            - V disables the game interface
            - 1,2,3 etc. sets the camera movement speed
            - P activates the smooth camera flight
            - X levels the camera with the ground
            - CAPS+Z enables the vehicle markers while the interface (V key) is disabled)

            O and L increases/decreases angular velocity
            R reverts to default roll angle
            K and I increase/decrease Linear velocity
            C locks to postion, while then Num7 and Num1 set the radius of the camera around that position.
            N binds to a vehicle (you need to be very close to the vehicle)

      • Here it is again:

        Silentstalker, there are very interesting graphs comparing winrate of tanks to winrates of players playing on these tanks, some graphs have the tank names in Russian, though.

        SS: edited the links, for some reasons there wwas something wrong with them and the message ended up in spam all the time. Anyway, I know about it, thanks.

    • except not all of the above mentioned commands such as:

      “- X levels the camera with the ground
      - CAPS+Z enables the vehicle markers while the interface (V key) is disabled)”
      at least the marker thing doesnt work with xvm custom markers :)

      • oh and another control you havent mentioned: you can press “C” and the camera will move around only one certain spot just like as if it is locked to a tank, except it’s locked on a random point where your center of the screen is at the time. … damn missing words -.- my english was better :D anyway hf with the mod^^

  10. In clan wars free camera would be very useful for the commanders, I don’t know why they don’t allow it…

    + War Thunder has an interesting feature:
    Anybody can open in any browser any actual match (if she/he knows the ip address), so while I’m flying my bomber, I can see the map with every marker on it, on my tablet’s screen…
    It can be extremely useful, because in the future clan wars, the commander can see the whole map and can focus only on leading her/his clan mates, without playing the actual match.

  12. Can this mod see the enemy tank if they are spotted like the artillery view? Because if it can, IMO it can be considered as cheating since you know immediately in what kind of position the enemy tank is and on what direction he is facing.

    • you shouldnt use it though it gives you an unfair advantage … there is a reason why it is forbidden …

  14. >>>>> – click twice with LMB

    Its only 1 click that is needed. Won’t work else. In any case you need to switch to free view.

  15. 1. No such thing as legal / illegal mods on EU, NA servers. Forum moderators can say whatever they want they have no deciding power, no official statment from developer on main page = no banned mods.
    2. Legal / illegal , detecting it is technicly impossible. What they gonna do? Hire 100000000 ppl to check everyone for illegal mods? Automatize it? How do you write a script that can tell diffrence between magic pony skins and illegal glass box skin? Both for maschine are just graphic. Stop shitting your pants people…

  16. this shouldn’t be a mod, this should be in the game by default. This also shouldn’t be restricted to replays, but be available for live observers.

    You know, if WoT is to go beyond 50 viewers on tournament screens

  19. Just want to point out that this WORKS in live battles. Hence the reason why it hasn’t been given to the public.
    Can be used to spot trees falling, cover being broken. If any mod is illegal it is this one being available to the public.
    So please don’t go “it should be available by default” because you clearly have no idea what you’re talking about and how “not damaging” it could potentially be.
