Hydrox Posted March 28, 2014 Posted March 28, 2014 Anyone have any idea how to disable that zoom out effect, when entering cockpit? It's not only annoying, but it also messes up my TIR settings. If there's some file which could be edited or something..

Hydrox Posted March 29, 2014 Author Posted March 29, 2014 Thank you, but that doesn't help with this. I was actually making snapviews earlier manually, because imo the default view is too low vertically, but that zoom kicked in, so I'm in square 1.
zaelu Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 (edited) I think you can't. but, take a look at this post: http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=1823685&postcount=11 I quote there some sections from snapviews.lua and server.lua (server.lua is a user modified copy of server.lua from \config\views\ ) and you can see that: this line from snapviews.lua: [13] = {--default view viewAngle = 105.000000,--FOV in degrees when starting game and this line from server.lua: CameraViewAngleLimits = {20.000000,105.000000}, --minimum FOV 20 degrees Maximum FOV 105 degrees, max FOV is same with default FOVdefined in Snapviews.lua!! controls: what is the default FOV (105°) at the start of the game (1st line) what is the minimum FOV (20°) while zooming in (1st part of the second line) what is the maximum FOV (105°) while zooming out (2nd part of the second line) I have zoom on a axis between throttles (G940 HOTAS) and by those settings (that are from one single aircraft... they differ a bit from plane to plane) the default FOV corresponds with maximum FOV (105°). By this I limit the animation. Because the animation goes from minimum to maximum FOV and back to default FOV and if Default and Maximum are different then the animation is more complex and more annoying. Also pressing any of the cockpit zoom buttons from keyboard cancels the animations immediately and assigning those keys (Num* and Num/) to a profile on your stick might make it stop quicker as you keep your hands on HOTAS usually at the start. Num Enter resets cockpit zoom to default and allegedly also stops animation but I had no success with it.

Hydrox Posted March 29, 2014 Author Posted March 29, 2014 Ok, editing server.lua could work then, too bad I don't have that file in user files. I have 4 in DCS folder, in 1 of them is that CameraViewAngleLimits line, but there's not config for Mi-8MTV2.
joey45 Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 You can stop the zooming by hitting * or / on the numpad, which is the deafult zoom keys. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

I have 4 in DCS folder, in 1 of them is that CameraViewAngleLimits line, but there's not config for Mi-8MTV2. that's because Mi-8 has it in Mods folder (aircrafts/Mi-8 mtv2/views.lua) but... you can add Mi-8 section in your server lua from user folder like this one from me:Server.lua [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] I5 4670k, 32GB, GTX 1070, Thrustmaster TFRP, G940 Throttle extremely modded with Bodnar 0836X and Bu0836A, Warthog Joystick with F-18 grip, Oculus Rift S - Almost all is made from gifts from friends, the most expensive parts at least
Hydrox Posted March 30, 2014 Author Posted March 30, 2014 Ok, thank you for your help, I took Mi-8MT line from the server.lua and now it's all good. I couldn't disable autozoom, but actually I got something else out of this; I changed default views for all pilots, at least to me it's now better. I'm gonna stop fighting with autozoom now, since now I got views where I wanted. If you wanna try these values too: Server.lua (all playerslots) CameraViewAngleLimits = {20.000000,64.574562}, Snapviews.lua player slot 1: viewAngle = 64.574562,--FOV player slot 2: viewAngle = 64.777542,--FOV vAngle = -14.500000, player slot 3: viewAngle = 64.777542,--FOV vAngle = -14.500000,
