Mods feel free to move it Okay, find your game.cfg file (should be in: \Age Of Empires III\Startup) and open it with Notepad or your favourite text editor. (Make sure you untick "Read-Only". Right click > Properties > Read-Only box!!) Find the line "MaxZoom", default should be at 60. Change it to 120 (You can go higher if you want, just a warning: zooming out more puts more strain on your gfx card so if you have a low-end PC dont make it too high ) Also change "NormalZoom" to whatever you changed "MaxZoom" to. Close + Save it. Restart AOE 3 NOTES: 1) Do this at your own risk!! Im not responsible for f$cking up your game I tried this and it worked for me, I can't guarentee anything. 2) Make a backup of your game.cfg before editing anything!! 3) Enjoy ~ Skinty #409222 by unknown[3671] at 2005-10-09 10:40:43 (7 years ago) - [Report] Wow, very interesting.
