Too zoomed in on 3 screens

[awayvenus7]

I have tried the corsair with vr, 1 screen and now 3, it works fine on the first two options, but when trying the latter it simply is absurdly zoomed in, i mean on an unflyable level.

i will include a image on how it looks for max FOV, i know the cockpit is small but it looks way too closed in, i can only see the gunsight and nose. 

i hope this gets fixed soon since i enjoy the module, but i cant fly without proper support for 3 screens.

null

thanks, best regards

Venus.

I had a similar issue at first, but it is adjustable using the / and *, plus the  CTRL SHIFT  *  and  /

Also...  If you press numpad-5, then move/zoom the camera how you like, then press "Right-Alt+numpad-0" it will save your personal default view ;)...

 

I think you need to have "user snap views" or something like that enabled in some options screen somewhere.

Welcome to the forums, awayvenus7!

Additionally to the above tips....
If you want a certain FOV value while in mission: press 'esc' -> options -> system tab, and there you'll see the in cockpit current FOV value.

Adjust the slider to a value you're comfortable with or to pair the same value to other aircraft you own and then save it, as mentioned, with Right Alt + Numpad 0 (zero), although is much more intuitive to fine tune it while looking in the cockpit with the zoom keys which are * and / as mentioned.
Keep in mind you need to be looking centered in the cockpit before the keybind input for saving the new 'default view' (Right Alt + Numpad 0).

This is the setting that will allow you to save the new POV with the keybind above.

Later on you'll want to look into the bindings of 'zoom in slow', 'zoom out slow', 'zoom normal' and 'zoom in' commands on your hotas or controller for you to be able to zoom in and out whenever you want while flying.

What resolution are you on? i tried to zoom out to no avail, with open track, binds and lua editing of snapshots.

Hey! thanks, ive been into dcs for about 5/6 years haha, just never bothered with forums, i did try that, nothing happened, tried manual snapshot editing, keybinds and open track, i will attach the most zoomed out fov i could get, still bad :[

Have you seen this thread, about increasing the max FOV for the F4U. It might help with your 3 screens. The F4U cockpit is very spacey for a warbird. Especially when compared to some light weight fighter a the Bf-109. One of the common complains back in the day was that Vought built it around their 2 m tall chief test pilot Boone T. Guyton, thus that the common smaller pilots had problems adjusting to it.
