Developers, please add the option to disable screenshake

The option finally came to retail with Shadowlands but not to classic, I don’t know if that’s just an oversight or on purpose. I would think it’s an oversight seeing as there wasn’t screenshake like this on the original iterations of the game.

I know the amount of people who can’t play because of screenshake is a vast minority of the player base, but for a couple of us, it is actually game breaking and is preventing us from playing.

Thanks.

Can you describe how the screenshake works, or show it?

When some mobs use a spell, die or just walk by the screenshakes. Goblin Sappers shake the screen like crazy, I think Mortal Strike also shakes the screen but I’m not 100% on that one.
If you travel to Barrens and turn you back on Kodo’s (Not Thundering lizzards though) you will see.
The Kodos are obviously not a big deal since it’s so easy to avoid them, but when it happens in dungeons and random quest mobs that can’t be avoided, then I really struggle.

Try entering:

/console CameraKeepCharacterCentered 1
/console ShakeStrengthCamera 0

or

/run SetCVar (“CameraKeepCharacterCentered”,“1”)
/run SetCVar (“ShakeStrengthCamera”, “0”)

These are used in the modern engine so perhaps the cvar works even if the UI is not present in TBCC.

Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately those commands did not work.
