[CORRECT AS IS] Unrealistic HUD shape

[Zyll]

What you are looking for is the 2d cockpit from Falcon 3.0. My suggestion is to let it go. This is not a problem with DCS. As many have stated, it's the challenge of expressing a 3d perspective on a 2d monitor. Driving simulators would have similarly imperfect cockpit representations.

Sorry to all but for my the HUD loock fine (for my 1/2 cent)....great work Wags :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

For me not. I think side frames is not enough angled outwards. How it looks in-game is when you lean forward towards hud. F-16 hud is done in way that frames doesn't interfere with pilot FOV from his usual seating position.

The reason the frames interfere more with your view in DCS than in real life is because you're only looking from one perspective exactly in the center of the cockpit, not through two separate eyes. This is also why they appear to bow more on a 2D screen than in VR or real life, where you again have two different perspectives joined together. This is also why they appear to bow inward when taken with a really long camera lens, as it's instead seeing the outside of the HUD frame instead of the inside.

Solution - just fly in VR, looks correct there.
