Furiz Posted Saturday at 09:20 PM Posted Saturday at 09:20 PM Hi, Where does MiG-29 Fulcrum save its snap views, I can't seem to reset the view. I tried deleting Snap View lua from saved games, and also snap view default but with no joy. Anyone knows this?

Furiz Posted yesterday at 09:36 AM Author Posted yesterday at 09:36 AM When I delete SnapViews file in Saved Games FOV resets to 118 give or take, is that the default FOV? And when I turn my head the picture becomes stretched around the edges.

Yes I did as the default one was too far back in my case. IIRC after changing the default one, the entry appeared in the snapviews.lua file. EDIT: I play on 3440x1440 resolution, so the FOV values might be a bit different than what you'd expect on 16:9 aspect ratio Edited yesterday at 12:59 PM by Vakarian

But I see now the default FOV is way back. I'll bring it closer and save then Thanks for clarification.
RyanR Posted yesterday at 02:25 PM Posted yesterday at 02:25 PM This was the same problem I had with the Fulcrum that took me 3 hours to figure out. In my head I thought it would be easiest to find and change the FOV in a LUA, but if you have never saved a snap view, you won't have a snapview.lua in the Saved Games folder to change. You have to adjust and save the default snap view in game from 118 to something around 80-ish. The Fulcrum is the only module in DCS with this strange default FOV. -Ryan 1

Something more than the FOV got changed. You may need to delete your snapview.lua and start over. -Ryan

Lixma 06 Posted 12 hours ago Posted 12 hours ago Use RCtrl + RShift + Keypad * and / to move your head position back and forward
MAXsenna Posted 9 hours ago Posted 9 hours ago Use RCtrl + RShift + Keypad * and / to move your head position back and forward And save with RAlt + Num0. @Furiz No point in reinstallations. Perform a full repair. Same thing, only quicker. It won't touch Saved Games though.To my knowledge. You have to have snapviews save enabled, and you must save a snapview before the file gets populated.Cheers! Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
RyanR Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago I thought to grab a couple screenshots last night from saving the new head position after an FOV change. I think the only way to start over is to delete the the snapview.lua in Saved Games. the one in the DCS directory doesn't do anything. The lua in the Saved Games directory will persist after a module reinstall or repair, so you must delete it. Once you do that, start DCS without head tracking, hop into the Fulcrum, adjust the FOV, and then save the snap view. Good luck. -Ryan
