Hey. I only got the info mail.
How do I get the beta key?
You should have gotten 2 emails. One with the key, and one just saying it was going into beta
My email with the key came first by about half an hour. They were both sent through Indiegogo, but the one with the key doesn't identify itself as being a Zaccarria update, it was "a message from ...."
IIRC the static view only applies to the custom camera views which are the selectable ones numbered 4 and higher
I was just about to get into zaccarria on PC this afternoon, so I can check back and see if it works the same as on droid.
Edit: It looks like the static setting isn't holding static views, and worse the stupid side to side motion bug from android is even more pronounced in this version. I can understand tracking the ball on the Y axis, up and down the table. However, a centred view does not require any motion in the camera along the X axis when the ball approaches the sides of the table. This wobbly approach to cameras is what made me not really that interested in continuing to play the Android version for a long time. Static view should simply lock all camera motion based on the selected parameters chosen. If the full FOV isn't available, then this is on the player to customize it more/better.
It appears that the side to side camera movement can be stopped by setting "Dead Zone" to "0". And yes ... I was trying to set a custom camera on camera 4 set to "Static". Static camera options is not working at all though. Even when you go to test the view, for a split second it seems like the camera will stay in Static, but then it starts moving from top view to bottom view. So far, this is my only huge concern. Static camera is a MUST for us folks playing in portrait mode.
Can you reproduce that issue? If so how the way? Because I have tried everything but Nautilus always has flippers.
