loscsaba86 Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 Dear Community I would like to ask, how I can open the periscope, so that I can see the mirror of the MIG-21? Best regards and thank you for the answers Csaba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eisprinzessin Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 Weird, i can not bin "M" to any of my sticks? My problem or known issue? Specs: 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-12900K 3.20 GHz, RAM 128 GB, Win11 Home, RTX3080Ti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ala13_ManOWar Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 It's not "open", or close, it's just mirror abled or disabled the same as any other module, mostly for FPS saving purposes. In other modules it's M key, in MiG-21 I'm not sure since many "obvious" bindings in any other module aren't the same in MiG-21, and since I've it always active I can't remember the key . 3 hours ago, Eisprinzessin said: Weird, i can not bin "M" to any of my sticks? My problem or known issue? Haven't heard of that issue, but sometimes it happens whenever you have older bindings in use while newer bindings appeared. The only solution I know for that is deleting your bindings and starting from scratch again using the new bindings in the module so luckily it would work again.

Frederf Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 Mirror toggling only works if enabled in options. Mirror rendering can only be disabled in cockpit if enabled. If option is disabled it is not possible to enable by key stroke. In real plane the mirror moves in fixed housing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eisprinzessin Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Thats really strange. Uninstalled the Module completely and tried to set up the config from scratch, but i can not map "Toggle Mirrors" M on any stick. I duble click, but nothing happens. Every other option is working as usual... Specs: 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-12900K 3.20 GHz, RAM 128 GB, Win11 Home, RTX3080Ti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ala13_ManOWar Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 But config isn't erased only uninstalling the module, some files might be kept in the saved games folder. Usually install/uninstall doesn't mess with that folder at all. I mean, it can happen, not that weird. If you "delete" files from saved games (MiG-21 ones at least) don't just erase it, rename, save it somewhere else, just in case you need it.

Every other option is working as usual... I'm the same way. I think it's missing from the joystick\default.lua file but exists in keyboard\default.lua. Oh look at that, top of the file: --/N/ added 31.01.2015. {combos={{key='M'}},down=iCommandToggleMirrors,name=_('Toggle Mirror'),category=_('View')}, {combos={{key='B',reformers = {'LAlt'}}},down = iCommandViewBriefing,name=_('View briefing on/off'),category = _('General')}, Search joystick\default.lua for "iCommandToggleMirrors" none found. Yup, they never added it. You can add it manually if you want so you can bind joystick to mirror toggling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eisprinzessin Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 (edited) Wow...okay, nice find. Works perfect. Thanks. BTW: Same Problem in the Viggen with the "Toggle Pilot" funcion.

Eisprinzessin Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 BTW: is is it possible for the Devs to put this line in the file? Everytime i update, i have to edit it new in the default.lua. Thats kinda anoying. Specs: 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-12900K 3.20 GHz, RAM 128 GB, Win11 Home, RTX3080Ti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
