Can we still zoom in and out in 3rd person?

Post » Thu May 10, 2012 5:21 am

In Oblivion, we could zoom in and out while our characters were in 3rd person. Like we could make the camera go really close or really far away from our characters. Is this still possible in Skyrim? PS3 player here, by the way.

Yes, it is very easy. Just press the button to change between first and third person and hold it down, then move the mouse forward or backward to zoom in or out. Walla.

It says in the booklet that "F" is the 1st/3rd person view I'm pressing "F" and scrolling and it's not working!

Once in third person you can move in and out by using your mousewheel.

Is there any way to make the camera free while your moving in 3rd person, it just seems to snap to back of my character.

Press the right stick in a hold it down, then use the left stick to move the camera/zoom in and out.

Seems like they removed that feature :( Rotating the camera is only possible when not moving and not having a weapon out. Oh well, atleast "TFC 1" still works (Free camera with stopped time, good for action screenshots :hehe:).
