The idea behind the action camera is pretty solid, but it's implementation requires a little to much micromanagement zooming in and out to be worth using... so I automated it!
Features:
v.20 is a slight redesign that retains yet expands on the old functionality.
"/acp config" opens a lightweight options menu to customize how the action camera will behave.
ActionCamPlus handles three states:
- On foot
- Mounted
- In Combat
In each of these states there are a few options that can be turned on or off such as:
- Over the shoulder camera (the main actioncam effect)
- Camera Pitch (vertical camera offset)
- Enemy Focusing
- Camera Distance Recall
There are also a few other things:
- Variable transition speed: "acp ts <# from 1-50>"
- Manual camera scroll speed: "/acp zs <# from 1-50>"
- Support for Druids' Travel/Flight Form
- Still fully toggleable: "/acp" or in the "Other" section of your keybinds menu.
Note: Addon Control Panel users can use "/acpl" or "/actioncamplus" for all the commands to avoid conflicts.
Please leave a comment if you have any problems or ideas for other features/improvements!
Any plans on updating this? I really like the Action Cam, and would like to make it better, but this Addon is out of date, and seems to be the only one expanding the Action Cam.
I haven't installed your addon (yet) cause I think /acp could be a mess as it's used by another very usefull addon (Addon Control panel, and Better addon list uses it too)...

Just wanted to say hello and thank you! This basically does everything I wanted Dynamic Cam to do but without all the options and time needed to configure it. It's made playing the game feel great and love that you added a command to toggle it on and off.
The only thing that would be great would be an option to keybind the enabling/disabling of the camera. That's all I can think of. Currently I just have a keyboard multikey command set up for it on Logitech Gaming Software, so it's not a huge issue for me but just something I thought of that could be nice for those moments when you need to switch the camera to its original more centered mode for those not using any gaming software.
So yeah, love the addon. Hope you'll continue to update and share it with us!

Perhaps option to set diff zoom levels for diff mounts? Cloudserpents' tails will be right in your face unless zoom far back; other mounts can be set closer. Ideally this addon should be rolled into a mount select addon. I have macros to do this now - diff one per spec.
In reply to Basthet:
That's a good idea, and I'm pretty sure I've got a good way to implement that. If you like the different zoom levels but don't want the actioncam, I'm planning on having that as an option at some point. Thanks for the feedback! =D
