I doubt on those pictures. u havent took it. 

 

 

It's very easy mate. You just need to time it and you may add some effects as I have. Believe me or not, your choice.

Here's one in which I've included myself :P Was waiting for a friend who was afk..

Thanks to new Tanki Online update, Now everyone can have his own "Spec mode"

 

Important: it is strongly recommended that you do not use this feature in battles other than parkour or private photo shoots, as you risk getting punished for sabotage due to inactivity.

 

You only need to follow some simple steps:
 

1- Enter in a battle.
2- Drive your tank to a place you want to spec.
3- Press Ctrl + Shift + K
4- Type "vars.set cam_maxmove 0" (without quotes)
5- Press Ctrl + Shift + K or escape
6- Drive your tank away from screen. ( Try not to fell :P )
 
 
And after u enjoyed specing :P get back to normally by following this steps.
 
1- Press Ctrl + Shift + K
2- Type "vars.set cam_maxmove 5" (without quotes)
3- Press Ctrl + Shift + K or escape
 
To have a view of the map from a high point you need to go to a high place on the map, put your camera in the highest position above your tank using "Q" and then set camera speed to zero using the command. That way you will be able to look up over the map using "E", but the camera won't move down to ground level because of the command.
 
You can also try using other numbers like 0.3 or 1 to have a slow moving camera, that slowly follows your tank. This creates an interesting "Cinematic camera" effect, that would look great in video.

And thats it :D

A small suggestion for those of you, who want to use this feature in videos: To make the rotation of your camera more smooth you can choose a turret with slow turret rotation speed, such as Railgun or Shaft. If you are recording yourself drive around, then you will find it a lot easier to do if you use Vulcan and constantly shoot while driving. This makes it so that you can turn your tank as much as you want and the gyroscope will prevent your turret from changing direction, meaning that the camera will stay in one place and you can rotate it independent from the hull.
 
For a "fly-by" of a map you need to go to one corner, set the camera speed to zero and then navigate your tank to the other corner of the map (which can often be quite difficult). Once you get there, set the camera speed to 0.001 - 0.05 and enjoy a slow ride across the air above the map.

[PS: This is not against any rule so don't be afraid to try. This is thanks to camera update. Enjoy]

Sometimes youtubers do this trick and they know how to rotate their turret without turning the view. How to do it?

Mouse mode. Enable mouse mode, and try rotating turret while pressing RMB(right mouse button) on screen :)

I was going to do that, but I don't think it's possible to embed the video with the time shortcut.
