Note: This release has been superseded by v3.1.1 which fixes a false-positive tainted backup error. Please download v3.1.1 instead.

UCM v3.1

I'm proud to bring v3 out of beta with its first full release!

I've been speaking with the Nexus Mods team and v3.0.2 was successfully reviewed and accepted.
I'm providing them with v3.1 now and we should be on Nexus Mods shortly.

Thank you to everyone who's been providing feedback and helping shape this project. The Sacred God Mode system in this release exists because of your bug reports and suggestions. Special thanks to @sillib1980 for discovering the Lock-on Auto-Rotate fields.

What's New

Sacred God Mode Overrides

When you edit a value in God Mode, it's now permanently protected from Quick/Fine Tune rebuilds. The camera rule engine skips any field you've explicitly touched. Your values stay exactly where you put them, no matter what.

  • Green indicators in the God Mode grid show which values are sacred
  • Sacred values persist per-preset (each preset has its own overrides)
  • Fine Tune sliders for sacred values show a green thumb and are locked
  • "Sacred only" filter in the God Mode dropdown
  • Works with vanilla values too -- if you set it, it's sacred
  • Duplicating a preset copies its sacred overrides
  • Colour legend in the God Mode description: White = vanilla, Gold = rules-modified, Green = sacred

Lock-on Auto-Rotate Toggle

New checkbox in UCM Quick: "Disable camera snap to target when locking on." Prevents the camera from whipping around to face a target behind you when you lock on. Credits to @sillib1980 for discovering the fields that control this.

Bug Fixes

  • Full Manual Control presets not installing edits -- Install was using the original vanilla XML from preset creation instead of rebuilding from current God Mode edits
  • God Mode overrides file polluted with CameraRules values -- now only saves values the user explicitly edited
  • Fresh install showing upgrade overlay -- detection now runs before any file creation
  • Tainted backup detection improved -- now catches all UCM installs regardless of FoV or Steadycam settings
  • Tainted backup overlay on fresh installs -- previously showed a silent status bar warning, now shows the proper interactive overlay
