The only thing keeping me from loving this game is the incredibly limited camera range. Does anyone know of a way to tweak the zoom and tilt ranges?

Sorry its a bit late, but someone else may want to know just like I did.
This site carries a "free camera mod" now you zoom all the way in or out, but be warned out too far and the map edges are black.

This link no longer works for me.

I tried installing AT mod. I tried copying it everywhere. I even turned the "mod" on, and still didn't work.

HOWEVER! In the MAIN GAME directory, change game.pak to game.zip. OPEN THE ZIP. (Windows can "explore" a zip.) Copy the .\AT\initialize.at file to your desktop and open it.

It reads:

renderstateoptimize = 1
mp_minFPS = 7
mp_minQPS = 10
shadowSingleSize = 1024
recordMovie = 0
slowdownK = 3

Then add at the bottom:

clipmap = 0

SAVE the file. Then put the file back into the zip by dragging it in. Windows will ask "Are you sure you want to copy/overwrite this file?" Click yes and wait awhile for it to rebuild the 700MB zip.

THEN, rename the file back to game.pak!

RERUN the game! BINGO.

Hi there!

You may also use "Sky Mod" to solve this problem.
More details are here in another thread:
