Adjusting Seat Height / Pilot's Head Height

Howdy DCS Worlders,

I'm looking for a way to adjust Seat Height in the Cockpit (actually how high the Pilot's Head is);

This will affect the Pilot's viewing angle over the nose of the aircraft and viewing angle to see the front instrument panel inside the cockpit).

I'd like to be able to adjust this parameter in real time (Flight) the same as looking around (rotating view), or zooming in and out.

But if that's not possible, I could modify the default Snap-Views lua file.

But Questions on the SnapViewDefauly.lua file:

Can anyone tell me (break it out) what the bracketed numbers 1,2,3,4, .....13 correspond to (I know each aircraft has its own settings) ?

And within each Bracket Number, can anyone breakout the sub-parameters:

[5] = {

viewAngle = 35.000000,--FOV

hAngle = 0.000000,

vAngle = -10.651850,

x_trans = 0.327622,

y_trans = -0.278207,

z_trans = -0.244799,

rollAngle = 0.000000,

Which one will affect Seat Height / Pilots Head Up-Down in the Vertical.

I could just go in and edit at will (trial & error), but in this case I'd like to know what I'm doing before messing around.

Thank You

BVR

SnapViewsDefault.lua.txt

Once in Cockpit:

RCTRL+RSHIFT+NUMPAD / and * to move forward and backwards.

RCTRL+RSHIFT+NUMPAD Up(8 ), Down(2),Left(4), Right(6) to Move Camera Up, Down, Left, Right.

NUMPAD Up(8 ), Down(2) to rotate head up/down

NUMPAD Left(4), Right(6) to rotate head left/right

NUMPAD / and * to Zoom In/Out.

NUMPAD 5 To Reset Position

NUMPAD Enter to Reset Zoom

RALT+NUMPAD0 To Save as Default View/Position for This Aircraft.

Thank You SkateZilla,

Once I adjust Pilot's (in cockpit) forward facing View to my liking;

how would I edit the SnapViewsDefault.lua file

to modify Snap View NUMPAD(5)'s default Position ?

Any Idea which Parameter to adjust?

[5] = {

viewAngle = 35.000000,--FOV

hAngle = 0.000000,

vAngle = -10.651850,

x_trans = 0.327622,

y_trans = -0.278207,

z_trans = -0.244799,

rollAngle = 0.000000,

Thanx !

Isn't what u r asking = to this? or am I mistaken?

Already answered this in your last post... :music_whistling: just sayin, read...

Thanks AtaiiaA1

And Thanks Everybody for the Vectors.

I'll get under the Hood and make it work (just a little Slow - New to DCS World)

Thanks again !

The type movement here is NOT Rotational Movement but moving the pilot's Viewpoint straight up/down left/right forward/aft. Some Flight Sims refer to this movement as "Translate" (L/R U/D I/O).

For the Combination Key Commands that (inside the Cockpit) move your view point:

- Left: RCtrl+RShift+Num4

- Right: RCtrl+RShift+Num6

- Up: RCtrl+RShift+Num8

- Down: RCtrl+RShift+Num2

- Forward: RCtrl+RShift+Num /

- Aft: RCtrl+RShift+Num *

I could not find those exact key stroke combinations assigned to default View Actions.

I wanted to simplify (shorten) the key commands by assigning the the up/down left/right commands to the Arrow Keys on the Keyboard.

How would one create Actions within the View Options (Controls - General - Views) to do such (assign to "arrow" keys) ?
