📋 About This Mod

This mod comes in two parts:

  • []No Collision - turns off collision for the camera and increases the distance it can move from the player (basically infinite).

  • []Faster Camera Movement - adds keybindings to the photo mode to change the Speed (this affects both player and vehicle photo mode, as vehicle photo mode is faster than the player version by default anyway)

  • []NumPad1 - sets camera to default speed

    []NumPad2 - sets camera to double speed

    []NumPad3 - sets camera to triple speed

    During installation you can install either parts of the mod or both.

    This mod is for Mass Effect 1 Legendary Edition.
