Advanced Zoom (alt. Simple Zoom)

Works with game version: 1. 13. 387

Installation:

Download and unzip the main file. Place the unzipped folder containing a mod.json, Paks folder, etc. into the Mods folder of your MW5 installation (discard the Nexus created folder that has numbers at the end of the mod name). You can go in-game to Mods at the main menu and click the Manual-install folder if you're having trouble finding it. Final install path should look like Mechwarrior5\MW5Mercs\Mods\advanced_zoom

• []Optional 8x zoom[/]

  []Dedicated Advanced Zoom keybind[/]

  []Advanced Zoom option in Controller Action Panel (press down twice on d-pad)[/]

  []Available ModOptions download for keybind remapping and other config settings[/]

  []Zoom sensitivity setting (recommended 1/4 you current sensitivity)[/]

  []Optional scroll wheel/zoom increase and decrease integration[/]

  []Scope scale allows you to change the size of the zoom window[/]

  []Optional MW4 Zoom sound effect[/]

  Mod Compatibility:

  Advanced Zoom should be compatible with any other HUD mods, the only assets it overrides are for controller users so any conflicts would affect that.

  Notes:

  Performance will decrease 20-30% when the scope is active, it's a UE4 thing. If fps drops too much, switch scope resolution back to 480p, try disabling RTX if enabled or download Simple Zoom.

  The scope disables post processing when using night vision as the filter makes it difficult to see, targets should still be visible, see screenshots

  Alternate Download: Simple Zoom

  Enables an extra 8x zoom level.

  A completely different implementation of zoom that follows the same method as 2x and 4x by changing the user's FOV. Very stripped down in terms of features. I still recommend this one because it gets the job done of seeing further and keeps t
