Free Move Camera?

Yes, I have unchecked the "snap camera back" option.

Hello all,
The first day I played this, I remember middle click moving the view to below the galaxy plane. Now I seem to be stuck at about a 45 degree angle from the plane, and cannot go in for a lower (more horizontal) view. What am I doing wrong?

I have no problems going into overhead view, or any angle from overhead to that 45 degree stop point. It is really frustrating. I would like to zoom in on planets from below!

You can't.

They took it out because when you got to the horizon line the game had to draw half the universe and your computer would melt.

You cannot go beneath ships or planets in the main map mode.

However, you may use the Free Cam in the combat viewer to go below your ships. The ship designer will also allow you to get an "underside" view of your ships.

Any way to tweak the allowable angles? I want to go lower, and my machine can handle it (new XPS from dell)
