View seems far too restricted in DCS 1.5

[Tomsk]

Hi,

 

Been playing with 2.0 a lot but came back to 1.5 to try some stuff out. Jumped into the WWII birds and it seems the pilot's view is far too restricted: it's not possible to clear your six at all. This is about as close as I can get:

 

 

Was this changed recently? Is something wrong in my setup? It seems fine in DCS 2.0, where I can see the aircraft tail just fine.

 

Thanks

In other threads it is stated that this is corrected in the internal build, not sure when that will get pushed yet though.

Looks more realistic to me trying to turn in a small pit with a parachute harness on isn't very easy. That's what is great abou vr it's a real eye opener For some.

Do it like a pilot. Lean forward, twist upper body and check six. Used to work perfectly in DCS...

Artificial limits are currently very unrealistic.

Currently there is no way to check your six at all. Why bother develop bubble cockpits, and Malcolm Hoods, and the Galland Panzer if pilots can't turn far enough to see anything anyway?

 

In real life you can lean forward and swivel, plus you have a much wider FOV and you can move your eyes as well as your head.

Replace this file with the same file from 1.5.3 and you are all good. :thumbup:

I didn't have 1.5.3 installed but copied it from DCS World 2.0 and that worked great, thanks!
