What camera mode(s) do you use?

Rotatable overhead always. I can get around pretty quick with the arrow keys / mouse combination. I wouldn't mind OTA or total war cams if they could rotate around the vertical axis.

I only recently discovered that if you hold meta while middle-mousebutton dragging, the smoothscroll widget is disabled and it doesn't scroll, so you can use it with rotatable cameras. It wasn't set up to work with "Rotatable overhead" so I modified the widget to work with it.

This is all because of my latest 3D widget requiring a rotatable camera to work with the convergence setting, I am familiarizing myself with the cameras of spring pretty much for the first time ever!

I can't find one I like. I like the way free (works well with smoothscroll) works but when rotating it floats around like a drunk instead of rotate normally like overhead. I want free, but with the not-stupid rotation of overhead.

Could someone tell me what smooth and orbit are and how I enable them?

Smooth is like TA only smooth, orbit is like TA only dissimilar.

and how I enable them?

and how I enable them?

PRess shift+backspace until you get to them?

What about commands like /viewta or /viewrot? Perhaps they are in the latest uikeys but whenever I reinstall spring over top of my old one I don't get latest uikeys.

I want free, but with the not-stupid rotation of overhead.

To put this another way, I want rotatable overhead, with the scrollwheel functionality of TA - zoom instead of change height. Then I could scroll with smoothscroll (my modified that allows it) and meta+middledrag to rotate.

I must admit I was thoroughly surprised by the results of this poll. I thought everybody uses ROC.
