shizusan 3 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 (edited) When I goto graphics settings after launching game and set what I want then exit and re-launch the game its not saved anymore is it because I'm using a Camera setting in optionscustom.txt do you think this is the problem? How do I get it to save any settings I make when I change it but still keep my camera fix? edit- well I sort of edited the options custom.txt file and fixed my issue but in game there is a problem sometimes the camera shakes forward and back really fast upon talking to npc's occasionally, think its when I move left or right at the end of a click. would like to know how to disable the auto camera when I'm fighting a huge monster it locks my zoom and is annoying. Please help me one last time before I end this game forever Edited July 14, 2014 by shizusan 1 Link to comment
Popular Post SX255 630 Posted July 14, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted July 14, 2014 Try restoring to original files, set the settings you want, then play around with the optionscustom.txt camera. At least this way you can confirm that the settings save when they are in original form. 2 Link to comment

I edited optionscustom.txt and added video settings to how I want, but I edited my above post added a new issue if anyone knows how to fix? Link to comment
Yoshio 91 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 As for the shaking I can only assume that it is caused by the zoom curve and an object which is in this curve making it impossible for the camera to zoom in or out. In a way the camera gets trapped by this object. The only way around is to get out of this position and relocate your character. As for the problem with the boss fight, I'm sorry, but, as I haven't experienced it myself, I have no other answer for You than that it had been discussed elsewhere on dark matters already. 1 Link to comment

Please help me one last time before I end this game forever Had the exact problem. Annoying as f*** and doesn’t give you some of the controls back until it stops. It's definitely zoom related... though I could never track it down beyond that. Probably the game just cant get close enough to the dialog target zoom position because the new autocalculated zoom in speed is too high. The longer the zoom out (or larger zoom in), more often it happens. With all the camera options disabled it still happens even if there are no objects in the way. You will have to play around with the Min/Max distances for this. I personally found setting the Max distance to about 80% of the options slider bar or less helped reduce this glitch a lot. By the way, what camera changes in the options.txt did you do? As for the boss monster zoom out, its there intentionally for dramatic effect. I recommend to just lowering the max view distance to something bearable, as this will happen every time. Maybe somebody around here knows how to disable the autozoomout in epic boss battles? 2 Link to comment
shizusan 3 Posted July 15, 2014 Author Share Posted July 15, 2014 (edited) Thanks replies again! Its funny I was the Elf and accidently pressed the diety key, I was like ungh I summoned something THAT powerful how cool is that, then all of a sudden camera Zoomed out far, and The Balor or demon whatever it is it started attacking me and I was like holy crap running for my life I can't kill it without dying so many times lol, kept resurrecting and downing its health I must of died about 40-50x before I finally killed it and didn't drop anything -.-' Can I not control that beast forever? Ah Camera changes let me check In optionscustom.txt I put video = { fullscreen = 1,}camera.behaviour = 0camera.customsettings = 1camera.cameraShake = 1camera.cam1_trackdist_max = 2000camera.cam1_trackdist_min = 140camera.cam1_rotx_min = -0.20camera.dng1_trackdist_max = 2000camera.dng1_trackdist_min = 140camera.dng1_rotx_min = -0.05camera.heromenu_trackdist_max = 2000camera.heromenu_trackdist_min = 140camera.heromenu_rotx_min = 0.05options.camera_mode = 3options.cameraConfigAutoCurve = 0options.cameraConfigCollision = 0options.cameraConfigFollow = 0options.cameraConfigZoomCurveMax = 20options.cameraConfigZoomCurveMin = 0options.cameraConfigZoomMax = 20options.cameraConfigZoomMin = 0video = { detail_env = 33, detail_fx = 2, detail_gfx = 3, detail_grass = 500, detail_grnd = 4, detail_light = 33, detail_physx = 1, detail_shd = 4, detail_tex = 3, fsaa = 1, fullscreen = 1, gamma = 0, hardware_mouse = 1, height = 1080, quality = 5, scaleUI = 1, simplepointlight = 0, vsync = 1, weather = 1, width = 1920,} Anyone know of a way to disable fog? and have higher view distance?

SX255 630 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Can I not control that beast forever? That’s the point of the most evil divine power - it doesn't obey weaklings - the Sakkara demon (aka the final boss of Sacred 1) ignores you for 20 seconds, then you have to kill it yourself or run away. If it still exists in the world, you can't summon it again, forcing you to kill it... or save and restart the game. 1 Link to comment
Popular Post SX255 630 Posted July 15, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted July 15, 2014 As for the fog... You can disable it by setting the "Render details" slider to as low as possible. But doing so will also turn off the glow (only shows on High and Very High) and make most of the game ugly (see low/high comparison bellow). I tried setting it in optoions.txt (fog = 1,) but the dam thing reset itself. LOW HIGH In other news, I discovered that setting TPOMax = 85 gives me an awesome over the shoulder view 4 Link to comment

What if I become really strong in the game can it then obey me until I unsummon it lol coolest thing I ever did in never winter nights was change my appearance to look like balor control it with all his attacks. Thanks edit- I changed optionscustom.txt fog - 0 but didn't disable it in game. which one is the render for fog? edit- for some reason I can't find the render slider in code for the optionscustom.txt } Edited July 17, 2014 by shizusan 1 Link to comment
Liqua 2 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 (edited) In other news, I discovered that setting TPOMax = 85 gives me an awesome over the shoulder view I've been using something I've found from Schot's camera guide, but I've been wanting an over the shoulder view along with this massive zoom range. I added your line to optionsCustom, but it doesn't seem to do anything. I think it has something to do with the camera mode?

shizusan 3 Posted July 17, 2014 Author Share Posted July 17, 2014 (edited) so all you gotta do is add camera.TPOMax = 85 anywhere in optionscustom.txt? lol my text is kinda yellowish orange don't know how to change that but I guess as a pirate I struck gold text.

XD Yes options.txt is a simple if-then-else code for the game to run at launch. It creates arrays of data like camera, key_bindings, render and so on. It's easy to damage, and that is why it is recommended to use optionsCustom.txt optionsCustom.txt is run after options.txt, and it can directly overwrite any previously set data in the options. But you need to tell it what array you are trying to edit. TPOMax is part of the camera array. There is a text color setting next to the smiles 2 Link to comment
Flix 5,116 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 What was the default TPOMax value? I don't like the look of 85 so I removed the line from optionscustom. But when I checked options.txt to look for the original value, I saw that the value was...85. So I'm stuck with this view point for some reason. Link to comment
Silver_fox 397 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 (edited) I think that TPOMax value is taken from the Camera Settings interface and written into options.txt (this file is changed every time you launch the game), so maybe you can change it from there. In my options.txt TPOMax = 40, but I'm not entirely sure that it's the default setting. Edited July 21, 2014 by Silver_fox 1 Link to comment
SX255 630 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 (edited) Yes, it was ether 40 or 42 Edit: Just checked my copy - it's 40 Edited July 22, 2014 by SX255 1 Link to comment
