I figured out how to set the Default External Zoom. But how do you set the Angle??

[Wild.Bill.Kelso]

After playing with .lua files for a while today I figured out how to make All External (F2) Views for All objects start at a better zoom value. I now have them zoomed out about twice as far in F2 View by default in the game.

 

But how do you set the Default 'Angle' for the F2 View? I have never been able to figure this out.

 

 

 

PS:

If anybody wants to set their Default External Zoom, here's how you do it:

 

CHANGE FILE:

C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Eagle Dynamics\Lock On\Config\View\view.lua

 

CHANGE VALUE:

-- DEFAULT VALUE: ExternalViewAngleDefault = 60.0

ExternalViewAngleDefault = 120.0

I like to have external view to be from further away, then zoomed in. Any way to have this set up by default???

[Wild.Bill.Kelso]

Yes....

 

I just posted it.

Isn't ViewAngle = FoV = Zoom?

 

I'm talking viewing distance also.

[Wild.Bill.Kelso]

I'm not sure.

 

What I posted might be the Ctrl-Numpad / and Ctrl-Numpad * Zooms. I'm not sure what that's called. It might be FOV. Or maybe Fisheye Zoom?

 

I also am looking to just set the normal default external zoom. I'm still testing to find it...

[Wild.Bill.Kelso]

Nope. That was not it. You are right, that is the FOV Zoom.

 

 

Does anybody know how to tweak the Default External Zoom or Angle??
