Max Camera Distance ( Auto Combat Zoom)

Max Camera Distance

Max Camera Distance is the ultimate camera utility for World of Warcraft. It unlocks the hidden potential of the game engine, combining tactical advantages with cinematic immersion.

Unlike simple scripts, this addon features a reactive engine that adapts to your gameplay state (Combat, Skyriding, AFK) and manages hidden Blizzard CVar settings to prevent motion sickness and camera jitter.

🚀 Key Features

🎬 Cinematic ActionCam (New!)

Transform your WoW experience with modern RPG camera mechanics:

• Smart Shoulder Offset: Moves the camera over your character's shoulder for an immersive view.
  • Dynamic Interpolation: Automatically centers the camera when you zoom in close (for looting/interacting) and shifts to the shoulder as you zoom out.
• Dynamic Pitch: Subtly adjusts the camera angle based on your character's movement.
• Jitter Protection: Automatically disables the conflicting "Keep Character Centered" setting to ensure smooth motion.

🧠 Smart Zoom System

The addon intelligently changes your camera distance based on priority:

• ⚔️ Combat Mode: Zooms out to the absolute max for raid/dungeon awareness.
• 🐉 Mount & Travel: Detects Skyriding (Dragonriding), standard flying, and travel forms (Druid/Shaman/Evoker) to adjust FOV.
• 🌿 Normal Mode: Returns to a closer, immersive distance when exploring.

💤 Intelligent AFK Mode

Turn your screen into a screensaver when you step away:

• Cinematic Rotation: Automatically hides the UI and slowly rotates the camera around your character.
• Safe Exit (Anti-Trap): Pressing ESC while the UI is hidden immediately restores the interface and exits AFK mode. No more getting stuck!

⚙️ System Integration & Optimization

• Zero-Lag Core: Uses Event Throttling to process camera logic only once per frame, ensuring 0% FPS drop even in heavy raid combat.
• Blizzard Settings Hook: Intercepts the default UI to disable the "Mouse Look Speed" slider, preventing conflicts with the addon's precision Pitch/Yaw controls.
• Limit Breaker: Extends camera distance up to 39 yards (Retail) / 50 yards (Classic).

🛠️ Quality of Life

• Always Sharpen (FSR): Forces FidelityFX sharpness for a crisper image without upscaling.
• Soft Target Icons: Displays interaction icons over NPCs and portals.
• Quest Cleaner: One-click button to untrack all quests for instant FPS boost in raids.
