dlw610 Posted January 12, 2022 Posted January 12, 2022 Greetings I'm sure this has been asked before but I was unable to find it anywhere in here or elsewhere on the net. Can someone please explain how to setup custom camera views (NOT SNAP VIEWS) in DCS? I want to be able to set views that I don't have to hold in place. Ideally I want to create a profile using my Logitech G600 mouse using mackro's for all my custom views. I use track ir just for looking around. The reason for this is simple, my entire left side is paralyzed due to a car accident years ago. So I'm trying to move everything to my right side as possible. I want to be able to create stationary views like the 1 in the pic. The very rear part of the left panel of the A10. Thanks in advanced.

marcwoolery Posted January 16, 2022 Posted January 16, 2022 Basically Im looking to lock all snap views to there locations. I have used ALT 0 many times but I dont see how to assign the recorded view to a key binding. thanks
lesthegrngo Posted October 13, 2023 Posted October 13, 2023 (edited) Also trying to find out how to do this, or at least be able to edit the standard views to give me what I want. Setting a snap view is no good, I need it as the default view that appears when you start DCS. If I have to keep holding a couple of keys down in order to have the 'normal view' that defeats the object, so the purported 'solution' above is anything but In each aircraft mod there is a Views.lua and this appears to be where the default views are set for any particular aircraft. Is there a way of modifying this in order to set your default view as you want? I tried finding 'HUD View' in that lua file, but suspect that it is simply the standard cockpit view minus the actual cockpit hardware being rendered, it doesn't change the camera 'position'. If I wanted to move the camera view so it is just in front of the cockpit for example, what would I need to do? Les Edited October 13, 2023 by lesthegrngo

You're going to learn this by watching at least one comprehensive snap view guide. Setting up a new default view takes less than 10 seconds. It's currently subject to a known bug.
