• Mouse wheel - Change height ( zoom in some camera modes)
• Ctrl + mouse wheel - FoV
• Alt - Has to be held down to access chat window
• V - Returns camera to player
• Numlock/middleMouse (autorun) - keep moving camera towards the current direction (also prevents mouse dragging from changing direction)
• (Shift+)Select Self/Team/Raid Member - Runs emote string stored with PhotoMode_StoreEmote command. Only works while in PhotoMode

Known issues

Some zones have persistent fog that can't seem to be removed

Chat Commands

Most of these can be accessed through the command window or mod icon
Don't forget the quotes (unless using true/false value)

Emotes/Looks

In newer versions these can be accessed through the menus, but you can also use the following chat commands.

• /option PhotoMode_Emote "all/playername/target,EmoteName" Plays client sided emote, for list of emotes see here
• /option PhotoMode_Looks "all/playername/target,lookspackage" Applies client sided lookspackage, for list of lookspackages see here or here
  • multiple id's can also be separated by using ;
  • Second arguments can also start with "reset/clear/hide/restore", these can come helpful when applying certain lookspackages or building complex looks. Reset can be used to restore own looks, but it doesn't work on others.
  • Examples:
    • /option PhotoMode_Looks "clear;6941926" Turns player into Geary
    • /option PhotoMode_Looks "reset" Returns players original look
    • /option PhotoMode_Looks "target,clear;6697044" Turns targeted player into Sonnac
    • /option PhotoMode_Looks "target,restore;6697044" Turns targeted back into normal
