    Pitch adjustment works in a seamless way exactly as you'd expect it to work. Move the mouse while holding the middle mouse button, or move the controller stick up/down.

    You can configure the values by editing the BG3NativeCameraTweaks.toml file with a text editor. The provided defaults are what I believe are sane values, but feel free to change them as you see fit.

     
    Tactical Camera mode, with its low FOV, gives out pretty cool classic vibes with adjusted pitch.

    CONTROLLER SUPPORT:

    In vanilla, moving the controller right stick up and down controls the camera zoom. That's now replaced with camera pitch adjustment. The original functionality is available while the left stick is pressed down.

    I've also included a deadzone tweak for the right stick because the default one is extremely strong (0. 65!). A smaller deadzone feels smoother and less rigid.

    REQUIREMENTS AND INSTALLATION:

    Have the game updated to the most recent version.

    Install Native Mod Loader.

    Place NativeCameraTweaks.dll and NativeCameraTweaks.toml inside Baldurs Gate 3\bin\NativeMods\.

    SUGGESTED MODS:

    WASD Character Movement

    The two mods work very well together and transform the gameplay into something reminiscent of Dragon Age: Origins. I personally love this.

    pavelk's various improved UI mods with autohide functionality, or Aether's Immersive UI

    For contextually hiding the HUD that tends to be blocking the view while walking around.
