Su-27 cockpit view problem

[mb450sel]

I installed DCSW and FC3 version 1.2.8.27915. I have a problem in the Su-27 cockpit. The first screenshot is the "Center view" of the cockpit , i.e. what I get when the mission starts and when I press the numpad-5. the second screenshot is the closest thing to the instruments panel i can get.

 

I tried to uninstall, reinstall, repair, disable TrackIR with no effect. It is occuring in the Su-27 only, the rest of planes are working well. Any thoughts?

 

Thanks,,,

Have you accidentally set some custom snapviews (which I think wold survive an uninstall/install/repair)?

Does TIR work at all, or are those different snapviews ?

I don't understand how you get from the first view to the second without going through some point that has a normal view - If you take off your TIR hat and use the keystrokes to move the POV & the mouse to look around, does that work ?

I didn't create any custom snap views, not in this version nor the past. for the TrackIR, i disabled it completely from windows, the change from view 1 to view 2 was done using the keypad only.

 

in other posts someone mentioned that a lua script might have something to do. i didn't use lua as well, but if someone can tell me what lua script file to look at, if it can help.

 

Thanks,,

You might wanna compare your view.lua file with the one i attached i alos put the snapview default file in there. Or just replace yours with mine.

 

Donwload a free program called Notepad++ to open and read lua files easy.

Check below for my view.lua file :)

View.lua

SnapViewsDefault.lua

Problem solved:thumbup:.

 

I compared the attached files to the files in "c:\program files\eagle dynamics\DCS world\Config\View" and they were identical. Then I compared the attached SnapViewDefaults.LUA to the file SnapViews.LUA in "c:\users\user profile\saved games\DCS\config\views" and they were different. I replaced the content of SnapViews.LUA with the attached SnapViewDefaults.LUA and it worked fine.

 

Thanks a lot guys. now it is time to :joystick::pilotfly::D

You might want to check what the key combination to create custom snapviews is, to make suer you don't inadvertantly have the same problem in the future ;)
