Having trouble mnodifying the F4 view.

[cobrabase]

I'm having difficulty with modifying the F4 view. I've downloaded the Configurator but I get a common error others have reported. As soon as I start the program I get the error message saying that my view integers are out of bounds.

 

I can't find a solution on the thread. I'm sure that there is a solution out there.

You could always manually edit

 

To adjust the F4 view go to the server.lua file in your Eagle Dynamics\Lock On\Config\View Folder

Look for this

Code:

function GetRearCameraPosition(iType)

local p = CockpitLocalPoint[iType]

local r = {}

r[1] = p[1] - 3.7

r[2] = p[2] + 2.4

r[3] = 0.0

return r[1], r[2], r[3]

end

 

 

r1 is a longitudinal coordinate in meters.

r2 is a vertical coordinate in meters.

r3 is a lateral coordinate in meters.

Okay... messed around with it.

 

What I'm trying to do is get a camera position using the F4 command really low under the aircraft. I want to snug up next to the nosewheel or near a weapon pylon.

 

I can't get the camera to drop below the standard height for the F4 view. I can raise it high above my fighter but not drop it. I need advise as to what controls what.

There's a "little" software called "LOCFG" (LockOn Configurator), with it, you can place the F4 view easily.
