Widesceen question...

I'm not sure this is the right place to ask, but the cockpit is too big/fills my widescreen monitor. How can I adjust the FOV so I am sitting back a little in the cockpit? It's like the cockpit is zoomed in.

 

Thanks.

Numpad keys: / is zoom out, * is zoom in.

Thanks. Any way to save the settings?

Not that I'm aware of, but zoom needs to be bound to the joystick, zooming is ESSENTIAL for spotting targets and other activites involving the Mk 1 eyeball.

Yes. Hell I don't remember where, but it should be similar to Flaming Cliffs 2 / DCS:BS.

Edit line 1059 of Snapviewsdefault.lua in the \config\view folder with Notepad++

 

Snap[11][13]["viewAngle"] = 83.0 <---- change to suit.

 

But Note that reading the HUD will be come impossible without zooming in first.

This may be a better sollution ---> OK, i've got it try this for lines 1056 -1062 of snapviewdefault.lua

 

Snap[11][13]["y_trans"] = -0.025

Snap[11][13]["x_trans"] = 0.3

Snap[11][13]["hAngle"] = 0

Snap[11][13]["viewAngle"] = 83.0

Snap[11][13]["vAngle"] = -19

Snap[11][13]["rollAngle"] = 0

Snap[11][13]["z_trans"] = 0

 

The downside of course is that around the edges of the HUD stuff gets chopped off.
