[Help]How to see my 4 or 8 o' clock in cockpit?

[fulcrum251]

Hi,all.

I would like to control cockpit view by Alt+Numpad 1-9 insted of only Numpad 1-9 keys.It's better and faster.I define the keys to my joystick's POV(Hat).But I can't see my 4 or 8 o' clock through this way,so I have to use Numpad 0 + Numpad 4 or 6.I modified the cockpit view angle limit from 140 degree to 180,But failed yet.

Anyone has any idea?

Thanks.

There's also a cheaper solutiuon called Free Track, couple of LEDs, Web cam and some 35mm camera film for filtering out backlight if any!

 

But you can also use your mouse to pan your head around the cockpit, check it in the Setup UI!

yes, you can even see your 6h o'clock from cockpit (for joystick's POV Hat) if you change some settings in Config\View\server.lua

This's my settings (change max horizontal angle value to 180 or higher)

 

-- Camera angle limits {horizontal angle max, vertical angle min, vertical angle max}

CameraAngleLimits = {}

CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iSu_27] = {195.0, -77.0, 110.0}

CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iSu_33] = {195.0, -77.0, 110.0}

CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iSu_25] = {110.0, -80.0, 110.0}

CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iSu_39] = {110.0, -75.0, 110.0}

CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iMiG_29] = {195.0, -75.0, 110.0}

CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iMiG_29K] = {195.0, -77.0, 110.0}

CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iA_10] = {195.0, -72.0, 110.0}

CameraAngleLimits[PlaneIndex.iF_15] = {195.0, -80.0, 110.0}

I already changed to 180 degree.Now I'm to try 195 degree.Haha.

Track IR

Or if your on a tight budget make a home made version (easy).

I know these have both been mentioned before.

But it's what most of us use, and all agree, once you get used to tracking, you just can't fly without it. It really is that good. Check out the video's on either site.

You can always blow the canopy off like my HOTAS did!!!!:megalol:

 

You'll get a lot of bugs in your teeth but your visibility will be great!

Now it seem that I need a FreeTrack.

but my eyes are myopia.I can't fly without the glasses.
