Use latest PatcherGUI to install.

I'm playing on 4x3 monitor and find default zoom level too close. Zoom level can be adjusted, sure, but camera auto-zooms to default each time I click on next soldier or something "important" happens on the screen. So ultimate solution is to change default zoom value.

There are 4 mods in downloads section: 1. Camera Zoom Levels: set default camera zoom level, min and max zoom, free aiming zoom, rocket aiming zoom 2. Camera Yaw Angle: set default camera yaw angle 3. QE Free Rotation: enable camera free rotation while holding Q or E key. Use "Camera Yaw Angle" mod to set smaller yaw angle (about 10 degrees is enough). This change was originally implemented by bokauk, I've just re-implemented it for never EU and EW versions. 4. Enable Camera Pitch: Enables camera pitch with PitchCamera console command. Vanilla PitchCamera code is not working. This mod re-writes original code with the modified one from ToolBoks by bokauk. Original bokauk's code was converted to PatchUPK pseudo-code to make it game version independent.

You can bind PitchCamera command to keys by editing DefaultInput.ini file: - Navigate to section - Add two lines: . Bindings=(Name="LeftBracket", Command="PitchCamera 10") . Bindings=(Name="RightBracket", Command="PitchCamera -10") This will bind pitch commands to '[' and ']' keys.

Note for AZERTY keyboards by pat_sch: . Bindings=(Name="LeftBracket", Command="YawCamera 5") . Bindings=(Name="Equals", Command="YawCamera -5") will give you keys ")" and "=" on AZERTY keyboards (the two keys following "9" and "0" on central part of keyboard), with the same rotation sense as "A" ("Q" on QWERTY) and "E". So: LeftBracket is to leave as it is, RightBracket should become Equals, to obtain rotation by ")" and "=".

See Keybind Commands wiki article on how to locate and edit DefaultInput.ini file.
