In Game “Camera” Angle No Longer Works for Me

[MistyMurder]

I’ve been away from AChat for a long time and going to the different public areas, I noticed something. Once upon a time, I could click my middle mouse button to rotate the in-game “camera” to move around and see my avatar and others, but now I can’t. I was wondering if something changed or I have some weird bug? Any advice would be kindly appreciated or was the feature removed?

Hi MistyMurder,
Welcome back and welcome to Forum.

As far as I am aware that function still works but I’m not in a position to check it as yet.

Is any other member able to test the camera out in the public rooms to see if you can view your avatar from the front and to look around using your mouse and holding the central wheel down?

Once I’m back, I will test it out ASAP but hopefully someone will answer you by then.

Just tried in Amsterdam meeting place.

Right mouse button moves camera Up, down, left and right.

The wheel zooms.

The third mouse button rotates. So, it does work in the meeting places at least.

@Zuzannah
Thanks for helping out.

From memory, I think my mouse worked similar.

Right click + Hold – Moves camera Up & Down, Left & Right
Central Wheel held down – Rotates Camera
Central Wheel scroll – Zooms in and out
Left click – This does not work your camera. This just works your cursor, for example seeing member profiles ; moving your chat box , leaving the room

@MistyMurder
It would seem you may have picked up a glitch.
It may be worth you uninstalling Achat completely and re-installing it.
If it still does not work, check the usual things with your mouse etc..like batteries, mouse dongle connection
and if all else fails, contact Achat “Support” in case they can find a solution.

Thank you all for advice. I did try uninstalling and reinstalling the game, but no fix. I know my center/middle wheel on my mouse is fine (use it on other games). I emailed support and just have to wait for now. Much love.

3 days later I got the most… infuriating reply…

3 days later I got the most… infuriating reply… I am literally copy/pasting what their reply was to a support email I sent with the same description of my issue as I posted.

“Hi,
this function should work fine, at least works fine with my mouse middle button (wheel).
Regards,
AChat support”

…. No “sorry about your issue”. No suggestions. No explanations. Just a meh, works for me reply.
Okay, back to IM\/U I go then. Glad I let my subscription run out here last month. I was a creator/designer here and had a paid subscription, but with tech support like that, wowie…

That is a little bit of a shocking reply. But, it does sounds like it’s at your end, they can’t fault find your P.C. (Or anyone else’s).
