FreeLockOnCamera

Version: 0.1.5

This is a mod for Elden Ring v1.10.

Description

The camera can be rotated freely during lock-on. Includes some additional changes like how lock-on targets are selected.
In Elden Ring the lock-on camera can fail to keep large enemies or groups of enemies in sight. This mod is a workaround. It is not ideal and probably even worse when using controllers. But you have control at all times and can rotate the camera however you need. Some parameters can be customized in the file config.ini.

Changelog

v0.1.5:

• Added a delay that is necessary when using the mod via ModEngine2. Otherwise the first change is not applied, i.e. it reaches the end of scannable memory.

v0.1.4:

• Added the parameter angle_range. It determines how accurate you need to aim.

v0.1.3:

• Fixed a bug where a array of bytes would not be found when a partial match is directly before a direct match. The function Apply_SwitchLockOnMod() failed after the latest patch because of this.

v0.1.2:

• (thanks to emrecankarabacak) Added the parameter is_free_lock_on_camera_enabled to make free cam optional for players who want to keep the lock as is but change other parameters.
• Fixed a bug where the parameter is_lock_on_camera_zoom_enabled would not get applied correctly when free cam is disabled.

v0.1.1:

• Fixed a bug where the camera would not zoom out when locking on certain large enemies. You can disable it in the file config.ini if you prefer no zoom.

v0.1.0:

• Changed the parameter is_target_switching_enabled to target_switching_mode. Can be set to vanilla_switch, modded_keep or modded_switch (default). The value vanilla_switch disables changes made to the switching logic. This might have some value if you prefer to not move the camera during lock-on.

v0.0.9:

• Added the parameter is_target_switching_enabled to the config.ini file. Set to true by default.

v0.0.8:

• Initial release.
