This mod is inherently obsolete...

Simple but useful. Thanks!

Ya the game let's you do this now because mods like this were so popular but it didn't have it before.
Riekopo Sep 23, 2016 @ 5:10am 
The game already lets you do this.
Azagedon Jan 21, 2016 @ 2:39pm 
Works great. Shoud of been included in the game!
LordPeverell Jan 4, 2016 @ 4:53pm

Hezekieh Dec 1, 2015 @ 1:42am 
Why couldn't the UPLOADER have done this previously???
Badaim Nov 7, 2015 @ 5:47am 
this
map("mousez", "world", "uiWheelZoom")

have to become this
//map("mousez", "world", "uiWheelZoom")

and do what Mr.Bubbles said
ROTG Oct 28, 2015 @ 12:45pm 
Its Good :)

@Mr.Bubbles how do I edit that file? I can't seem to open it
Uatcher Jun 18, 2015 @ 10:45am 
Forgive mi ignorance, but I seem to get this mod to work. I followed the instructions to do it manually but still no good, any help?
Vaskonios 3 May 18, 2015 @ 3:13pm 
I dont know why, but today when i began to play i couldnt neither rotate camera neither the buidlings, i unsubscribe to many mods, i verify the options check that the rotate camera was checked, it was, but it still continue to only zoom the camera, what is happening?

nottud, gamex.con is now supported so you can put your stuff there. No manual installation necessary any more :-)
My name Yeff Feb 25, 2015 @ 6:39am 
I have a slight issue... I'm a total noob and the mouse wheel just changes the zoom of the camera for me, how do I fix this?
Mr.Bubbles Jan 11, 2015 @ 1:04pm 
@bgratta Sweet, Its official
Snazzymonster Jan 6, 2015 @ 9:00am 
@Mr.Bubbles Just tried what you said to do and it works fine including online play
Mr.Bubbles Nov 30, 2014 @ 11:09am 
This is pretty simple to do yourself without a mod... In fact the necessary file to change already has the setting, it's just commented out.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Age of Mythology\startup\gamex.con

Around line 539 you'll see:

//map ("mousez", "building", "uiWheelRotatePlacedUnit")

Just remove the // and save the file. When placing usints, use the mouse wheel to rotate.

NOTE: I do not know if this will work in multiplayer since I don't ever play multipayer but it did work on a random map.

My concern is I have had to do the same thing for another mod. If I overwrite the other mods "user.con" file with this one I cant use that one anymore (WASD to move camera Mod).
Vaskonios 3 Sep 25, 2014 @ 6:55pm 
Wat do i do after i click startup?
They ask me for someting more about search
BridgetFisher Sep 1, 2014 @ 11:37pm

Krakonus Jul 11, 2014 @ 11:20am

Top Bloke Gman Jul 9, 2014 @ 6:36am 
I subscribed but there's no 'mods' folder.
Dark Lord Dennis the Fearsome Jul 8, 2014 @ 11:03am 
aa a real must for people who want to make something pretty of there encampment ;P

Hey you might like to add: map ("shift-mousez", "unbuild", "uiWheelRotatePlacedUnit")

This lets you rotate buildings when timeshifting them as Kronos. Note that that line is bound to Shift + MouseWheel.

For those complaining about not being able to find user.con, thats because the file isn't created by default. You have to create it, which can be done simply create a new text file and rename it to user.con

Make sure you can see and edit file extensions when you do this - If you can't see .txt after making a text file then you can't edit file extensions. Head to Google to find out how to change it - Its just a setting tickbox that you have to change in Windows so shouldn't be an issue.
G-Rath Jul 6, 2014 @ 5:48pm 
For those complaining its not working - Make sure the mods downloaded first! For some reason Steam + AoM:EE's mod manager had issues downloading the mod for me. While Steam would report the mod downloaded, it wasn't actually in the mod folder. Try restarting Steam, and restarting the game's launcher.

The latter should be done a couple of times as every time the launcher starts up it checks the mods you're subscribed to, downloading or removing all mods that are/aren't on disk according to what you subscribed to.

Going from the Steam library root, the mod folder is located at: steamapps\common\Age of Mythology\mods

Sorry for the long comment, hope I've helped a couple of people at least :D

Doomed World Jun 16, 2014 @ 3:00pm 
this mod seems not to work anymore
Armored Baron Jun 15, 2014 @ 9:43am 
Moved the file and it worked, the Devs should get their shit together tho.
Healer Jun 5, 2014 @ 1:04pm 
dw made it work by moving the file :DDD
Healer Jun 5, 2014 @ 12:41pm 
this doesnt work :'(

Arudesu May 28, 2014 @ 12:27pm 
i have installed the mod but it won't let me rotate
Slutty May 27, 2014 @ 7:58am 
I subscribed but how it works? I mean how to rotate things after instaling this mod? xD
Platysaur May 24, 2014 @ 10:21am 
It didn't work when I subscribed so I did it manually but it still doesn't work.
Hundley May 21, 2014 @ 4:49pm 
Certain buildings when you place them don't build in the direction you place it in.
Bruno Magno May 18, 2014 @ 4:32am 
Thanks a lot man. This mod is simple but amazing!!!
Maxxy May 16, 2014 @ 5:24pm 
Should I try to put it in manually because it won't work. Or am I just not doing it right because I can't rotate it.
Ripley May 16, 2014 @ 2:34pm

Maxxy May 15, 2014 @ 6:44pm

Jaketz May 11, 2014 @ 12:32pm 
Thanks
ellellell1 May 11, 2014 @ 1:30am 
Amazing Mod! I have always wanted to be able to do that :)
Andax May 10, 2014 @ 3:17pm 
Awesome thanks man. This was the first thing I wanted. The mod manager didn't work like you said it mightn't though, so I did the moving user.con method.
Curaffte May 10, 2014 @ 2:58pm 
Brilliant mod mate. Thank you :)
wizaerd May 10, 2014 @ 7:57am 
Raiders, it's a text file so any plain jane text editor like notepad...
