Activating Camera Mode In Dino Storm: A Quick Guide

Dino Storm is a free online multiplayer game with rich 3D visuals. The game is set in Dinoville, where players embark on quests, combat enemies, and collect loot. One of the unique features of Dino Storm is the ability to ride and battle with dinosaurs. While playing, users can adjust their video settings, including screen resolution, quality, and display mode. Additionally, Dino Storm offers a free flight camera mode, known as freecam, which allows players to capture creative screenshots and videos from unique angles. This mode can be activated and deactivated using specific keyboard shortcuts, providing players with greater flexibility in exploring and capturing their gameplay experiences.

Activating/deactivating freecam mode

To activate freecam mode in Dino Storm, press Alt + Delete. The game has a free flight camera that was initially created for debugging purposes. It is now unlocked in a modified version for all users and can be used to create screenshots and record videos from angles that the default in-game camera cannot provide.

The range in which objects are visible is not affected by the freecam's position. The visibility range depends on the location of your avatar in the game. Only enable the freecam when you are in control of your in-game camera. Otherwise, you will not be able to switch back to the in-game camera correctly. To do this, ensure that when you turn your mouse wheel, it affects the camera zoom. If you can't switch back to the in-game camera, you will need to change the zone or restart the game client.

The freecam does not have collision detection, except for keeping it above the map surface, which means you can move through both objects and level geometry. Quick mouse movements while in freecam mode can cause the camera to suddenly move in the opposite direction.

To deactivate freecam mode, press Alt + Delete.

Hiding/showing the user interface

Dino Storm is a free online multiplayer game with 3D visuals, where you play as a ranger who is travelling to Dinoville, where rich veins of gold have been discovered. The game offers a free flight camera, initially created for debugging purposes, that can be used to take screenshots and record videos from angles that the default in-game camera cannot provide.

To hide or show the user interface when using the free camera, you can use the following controls:

Alt + Pos1 = Hide/Show user interface

This will allow you to toggle the user interface on and off as needed.

• W, A, S, D = Move camera position
• Hold Left/Right Mouse Button, Drag Mouse = Change camera angle
• R = Move camera up
• F = Move camera down
• Q = Toggle 2D movement (Y-Axis locked, camera moves on a plane at the current height)
• T = Increase Field of View (FOV+)
• G = Decrease Field of View (FOV-)
• Mouse wheel = Increase/Decrease camera movement speed
• Ctrl + Mouse wheel = Increase/Decrease camera movement smoothness, allowing very soft/quick camera movements
• Alt + E = Lock/Unlock freecam camera controls
• H = Highlight object that the mouse is hovering over (required by auto-follow mode, can be disabled after follow is active)
• U = Automatically follow the highlighted object that the mouse is hovering over (needs object highlighting to be enabled to work)

It is important to note that the free camera mode has some limitations. For example, the range at which objects are visible is not affected by the camera position, but rather by the location of your avatar in the game. Additionally, quick mouse movements while in free camera mode can cause the camera to suddenly move in the opposite direction.

Moving the camera position

Dino Storm has a free flight camera, or "freecam," that can be used to capture screenshots and record videos from angles that the default in-game camera cannot. The freecam can be activated and deactivated using the Alt + Delete keyboard shortcut.

To move the camera position, use the W, A, S, and D keys. You can also change the camera angle by holding down the left or right mouse button and dragging the mouse.

• R = Move camera up
• F = Move camera down
• Q = Toggle 2D movement
• T = Increase field of view
• G = Decrease field of view
• Mouse wheel = Increase/decrease camera movement speed
• Ctrl + Mouse wheel = Increase/decrease camera movement smoothness
• Alt + E = Lock/unlock freecam camera controls

It's important to note that the freecam should only be enabled when you are in control of your in-game camera. Otherwise, you may not be able to switch back to the default camera correctly.

Changing the camera angle

Dino Storm is an adventurous game with dinosaurs and quests. The game has a free flight camera, initially created for debugging purposes, that can be used to capture screenshots and record videos from angles that the default in-game camera cannot provide.

To change the camera angle in Dino Storm, follow these steps:

• Ensure you are in control of your in-game camera. For example, if you turn your mouse wheel and it affects the camera zoom, you are in control. If not, you may need to restart the game client or change zones to fix the camera.
• Activate freecam mode by pressing "Alt + Delete" on your keyboard.
• To change the camera angle, hold either the left or right mouse button and drag the mouse. You can also use the "W, A, S, D" keys to adjust the camera position.
• Use the "R" and "F" keys to move the camera up and down, respectively.
• Experiment with different key combinations to explore the full range of camera movement options. For example, "Ctrl + Mouse wheel" allows you to increase or decrease camera movement smoothness, resulting in very soft or quick camera movements.

Remember, the freecam in Dino Storm gives you the freedom to capture unique screenshots and videos, but the range of visible objects depends on your avatar's location in the game.
