About this mod Machine translation

Disable automatic rotation and backward positioning in conversation cameras.

About this mod: A simple mod,

Disables two features of the conversation camera, "Auto-rotate" and "Position backwards".

Automatic rotation:

In the original game, if the player was "almost" standing next to an actor, the dialogue system would automatically rotate (translate) the player character to the exact direction of the actor the dialogue was intended for, without any movement animation. (Technically, if the heading angle between player and actor is less than -65° or greater than 65°). Mods disable this feature.

NOTE: The vanilla behavior of using the normal movement animation to turn the player towards the actor if the player is standing backward/sideways is not affected by this mod.

Position backward:

In the original game, the dialogue system would automatically position the player character backwards (immediately move it) if the player character was "too close" to the dialogue target actor. (Technically, if the distance between the player and the actor is less than or equal to 65 game units). Mods disable this feature.

Note: The side view conversation camera itself is of course not affected by this mod. (The bottom image doesn't show the side-view dialogue camera, simply because if the player and actor are within a certain distance of each other, and the vanilla backward positioning tends to move the player to that distance, the side-view dialogue camera can be seen).

compatibility:

The mod should be compatible with any conversation interface and conversation camera mods, as it does not modify the interface or the actual camera.

Ability to turn mods on/off at any time: Mods can be activated/deactivated at any time using these two custom console commands:

[StopQuest NoDialogueAutoRotAndForcedPos] ==> Close the mod.

[StartQuest NoDialogueAutoRotAndForcedPos] ==> Reopen the mod.

The ESL and ESP versions have been packaged and uploaded together.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
