📋 About This Mod
Enhanced Camera is the direct successor to Better Close Camera and Enhanced Close Camera.
It overhauls the Next-Gen close camera with customizable presets and introduces an immersive, cinematic handheld camera motion inspired by titles like God of War.
Unlike other camera mods that overwhelm you with dozens of sliders and raw numbers, Enhanced Camera keeps setup effortless through clean, intuitive toggles and several ready-to-use presets. You still retain full flexibility to adjust camera positioning across all gameplay states - exploration, combat, and horseback riding. An ultra-close preset is also included, bringing you right into the action to appreciate Geralt's high-resolution Next-Gen textures up close. Through the in-game settings, you can easily fine-tune the intensity of the camera motion for both idle and movement states to match your preference.
English and Russian languages are available for the settings menu, and a .csv translation file is also included, so you can make your own translation if necessary.
Compatible with the game version 4. 04 with the June 6 Hotfix
