camera zooming out too far, moving slowly

[vitorimax]

hi a friend told me to post here. i've had this issue a handful of times now, and reloading a save from before it starts does fix it. but i've found a specific trigger that has caused it to happen to me twice in a row.

after defeating the harpies, when talking to mirkon (this has happened both when his conversation triggers automatically and when i've had to click on him myself), the camera suddenly flashes to a view from WAY up high for a split second, and then the conversation scene with him begins. when it finishes, my camera is bugged.

when i use wasd to move the camera, it moves much slower than it did prior to the conversation (about as slow as it moves when you go too far from the character you're controlling, except it always does it). it also can zoom out WAY farther, like ridiculously high, to where your character is only about the size of the cursor. when i press "home" to recenter the camera on my character, it recenters at this extreme zoom out. when i double click a character icon, it will maintain the zoom level i had it at before double clicking.

no matter what i do, camping and leaving again, talking to people, restarting the game, nothing fixes it unless i reload the save to before it happened.

the only thing that particularly bothers me is the camera movement speed, which i can turn up in the settings. however, turning it up will cause it to move HYPER FAST on my non-bugged characters, which is definitely annoying.

if anyone knows a way to fix this i'd love to hear it. for now i'm just not going to fight the harpies.
