2020 bump... ED??

True, but FOV isn't changed above what I stated (140), so I can't get far enough to the back as I wish.

Well it used to be ok until at one point ED has changed the view angles limits and even fully zoomed out is not far enough as before the change.

I bet it is :).... but I'm waiting for VR to be much better (it's a different discussion) before I sell my screens...

Correct. Thank you anyway :thumbup: Will wait for more ideas, or confirmation it can not be done...

I have. no effect. I can zoom out to a certain FOV (using / and * ) and save it to my snapview lua file - but no more than 140 degrees as before

It is set as 1 monitor at 6000X1200 resolution. my monitor config lua is: Thank you for the detailed instructions!! Well I'm changing the parameters in SERVER.LUA saved games path, the only change I see is if I tinker with "CameraViewAngleLimits" , but it does up to ~140 degrees, not more. and I need more, close to a fisheye effect... In single monitor and 1920X1080 I saw it could be done , but not in 3 combined monitors wider resolution . the same level of "CameraViewAngleLimits" is different between wider resolutions, and does not account to that I guess from the results... In the past it could be done but ED put a restriction maybe... And now I'm stuck with that unless there's a newer way to overide it.

Thank you for your reply! :) I'll try to explain. The 3 monitors run just fine, no further adjustment neede there. but since I have a larger resolution now (with bezel correction it's 6000X1200) the previous FOV of the Huey which was ~60 degrees and is native to resolution of 1920X1080, is still the same for my higher resolution, so 60 degrees FOV on a wide screen looks like I sit WAY too close. I am already at the most aft zoom I can (means wider FOV) - and it's not enough. In the past I was able to fix it in the view settings, but ED has changed the way it worked and "broke" it, so I don't know how to manage it now.... Thanks!

bump again.... Still can't get far enough with 3 monitors. need a higher FOV. how to please??

I see Ironmike has replied here: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=272090 I don't know why he hasn't replied here, (it is bugs and problems here and we rerported earlier....) but who cares - it's being solved :) Cheers:thumbup:

Same here, he started hammering the TWS AUTO button non stop

By setting the bingo yourself - Jester can "know" what is the current bingo, same as he "knows" that you switched to AA/Cruise/...modes... as if you "told" him... It's just programming. And even without "knowing" the bingo... when you are about to run on fumes, and not in landing configuration, as a parameter for example - Jester can warn you about it as a "common sense" action... many ways to address this issue. Cheers

Hi, I was expecting Jester to report when in Bingo Fuel or low fuel, but no report or warning came from him at any point, even after my engines ran out of fuel and flamed out... He was still really relaxed.... and we crashed... :smilewink: I would expect my RIO to be aware and warn me about crucial stuff like dangareous fuel state while I dogfight and pay no attention to the impending disaster... Thanks HB!!

Hi, I’m sure it was asked before but couldn’t find the answer...:doh: Would it be possible, mainly by ED, to create a skin server where we could upload our skins, and when connecting to a MP server, it would download and sync all the custom skins there, as it was in IL2 days.... So we can all the custom skins in server without having to download them before , per server... This way ED controls the server for viruses and suitable level of art skill, the user can choose if he allows server skin download or not. Maybe can even control compression level to save space... Edit : Alternative option is to let each dedicated server to create its own skin server, and give the option for players to auto download the skins or not. Do you think it’s worth it/possible? :) Thanks

Is this mod still valid in 2.5.6? I have noticed the jaggies back in the cockpit with it enabled... thanks

Bump... Anyone??

Thank you for the explanation :thumbup: (should go into a readme file with the software maybe?...) Cheers! Ron

Thank you for this! I have a sidwinder FF2 joystick and would love to know how to make better use of it... Could you please elaborate some more on how to use it effectively? What are all the options mean? Does it influence other planes? is it working only while running in the background or its a one time setup? Thank you again :thumbup:

this is probably it... :) https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3302814/ cheers

That's for the maintenance... should you update/replace or just want to remove a mod... Nightstorm said he's using OVGME tool to sort it out which is a good solution, but annoying to use another tool to control another path etc... If ED supports the community our mods - they should make life easier for us and not the other way around... i.e. concentrate all the mods in one place, saved games maybe, and not split them into two places... :doh: Cheers

Now the problem is to track and follow the sound mods that are split into saved games folder. JSGME tracked it into the main DCS folder with names you gave them, but nothing is tracking them into Saved Games folder and all the files from different mods are mixed up there...:mad:

What a great MOD!! Thank you!!:) I've managed to refuel from the KC-10 with the F-15C, but the boom seemed about 2 meters far from the refuel door in the F-15C while connected. something to fix for later. Thanks again! :thumbup:

Hi, I want to try VA again after putting it aside for a while since it was a bit complicated to grasp... but whenever it is installed (registered version) - the DCS 3D world stops functioning for me. In the cockpit I get a freeze, TrackIR stops in game (it's working fine if i alt+tab and check it) , I can't press any button, not ESC even, the game seems to be running as I hear other aircrafts start their engines... I have to force close it with task manager, and do a repair to DCS to get back to flying, without VA... The DCS backup folders shows the removed scripts installed into DCS by VA. I have the latest version. Thanks for the help!
