Cockpit Point of View all screwed up - Help!

[bop1701]

I was adjusting the Cockpit Camera View (your Point of View/eyeball position) and went to 'Save Cockpit Angle'.  As I did this I had to lean forward to the keyboard, and the TrackIR had significantly changed my position when I hit the buttons to Save Cockpit Angle.   Now when I spawn, my starting POV is from forward and right of the cockpit.

I have repeatedly used the Cockpit Camera View controls to move my point POV back to the correct position, and then hit 'Save Cockpit Angle', but it does not fix the start up POV.  Gameplay still starts with my POV forward and right of the cockpit.

I've done full (the 'slow', long) uninstall of the OH58 module several times as well as repair.  Nothing seems to get my POV back to the original placement.

Any ideas?  It's killing a great module.

Thanks in advance, and don't do what I did.

can it help pushing [F10] change position save with [9]

@bop1701 Hi! One must turn off TrackIR when doing this, or the position will always be wrong. Instead use the Num keys together with  RCtrl + RShft to change head position. 2, 4, 6, 8, / and -. Down, left, up, right, zoom in and zoom out. One user told me one could also change angle up down with 2 and 8 without modifiers.

If you have an issue with a module, it's always quicker to do a full repair, instead of in-re-installation of anything. While a repair will not touch Saved Games, where all settings are stored. Logical when one gets the hang of it. So, in Saved Games somewhere, there's a file called Snapviews.lua, either manipulate it with correct values, or just delete it and start over fresh. (Best way to edit luas are with Notepad++). 

Cheers, and enjoy your weekend!

Nope.

Yes!  Thanks Maxsenna!   Found the snapview file in savedgames, deleted the OH58 section, and bam! Alls fixed!

Thanks

Mark as solution for future reference, if possible?

MAXsenna has the answer but I don't seem to have the 'mark as solution' button anywhere.....(?)  :

It doesn't come up as a green, (text option), if you click on my post? It's doesn't always work as an option in all forums.
Cheers!

Maybe it's my browser(s) but I don't get an option to click on these posts.  I've tried Edge, Opera, and Brave browsers....

Thanks though!

The forum is weird like that. Sometimes it’s there when it doesn’t make sense, and other times it’s not there when you want it to be
