About this mod

Allows binding a hotkey to CET (CyberEngineTweaks) to freeze/unfreeze the look-at-camera animation in photo mode. Also slows down the animation slightly to give you a chance to freeze the pose with V's eyes looking in the direction you want. Once the animation is frozen, you can rotate the camera to get more variety in your photos.

This is a simple plugin for CyberEngineTweaks. It does two things:

  • It slightly reduces the speed at which V's face turns to face the camera in photo mode when you choose "look at camera". The actual rate of turn depends on your frame rate, I've discovered - lower FPS means slower rate of turn.
  • It allows you to bind the following hotkeys via the "Bindings" tab of the Cyber Engine Tweaks (CET) overlay:
    •  Look At Camera: Toggle Freeze/Unfreeze: Toggles modes between slow head turning and completely frozen. This _will_ affect ALL characters and NPCs in the game! When you're finished, use the second binding (described next) to reset things.
    • Look At Camera: Default Speed: Reverts to original animation speed. Always use this when you're ready to return to normal gameplay. If you don't, you'll notice that other characters will be locked in a frozen state or slow mode (depending on what you were last in). No problem if you forget though, both of these bindings should work anywhere and at any time - even if you're in a menu screen.

To use the mod properly, first bind a pair of keys for the above two options (I use 0 for freeze/unfreeze and shift+0 for returning to the default). Rotate the camera, enable "look at camera" while in the "V" section of the photo mode interface, and then - as V's eyes turns to face you and his/her head and body starts to turn, use your key binding to freeze the animation before it completes. Once you've done this, rotate the camera to another angle while V's eyes remain locked in position.

This can also be used while looking in the mirror. For example, angle the view so that you're looking far enough left or right that you can't see V's face, hit your key binding to freeze, then look back at the mirror. V will still be looking in that direction.

Requires Cyber Engine Tweaks.

Once unzipped, you should have a "photo_mode_tools" folder in your bin\x64\plugins\cyber_engine_tweaks\mods folder.
