johnnychemo Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Snap views in multiplayer and single player are different for me. Any way to get them to be the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterP Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Yes, its possible: A) ask the Mission maker to delete the View folder inside the *.miz file that he host. (Unzip the *.miz and delete the View folder and zip it again and change the ending back to ".miz" ) B) ask ED to remove this stupid 'feature' that saves the snap-views settings of the mission creator and forces all others to use it.

Fakum Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 I know this is an old thread, but its relevant. When I snap view to the Radios, I can only see the Throttle, AM & UHF,,, cant see the FM. Looking at the snapview.lua,, I am perplexed at what I see and have no idea which line or value to enter to slide the view down so the snap view shows all 3 radios. Thanks for any help SnapViews["A-10C"] = { [1] = {-- player slot 1 [1] = { viewAngle = 65.000000,--FOV hAngle = 0.000000, vAngle = -26.000000, x_trans = 0.000000, y_trans = 0.000000, z_trans = 0.000000, rollAngle = 0.000000, }, [2] = { viewAngle = 49.626770,--FOV hAngle = 0.000000, vAngle = -90.631294, x_trans = 0.180499, y_trans = -0.137064, z_trans = -0.250000, rollAngle = 0.000000, }, [3] = { viewAngle = 30.395041,--FOV hAngle = 0.000000, vAngle = -94.329208, x_trans = 0.372718, y_trans = -0.054055, z_trans = 0.250000, rollAngle = 0.000000, }, [4] = { viewAngle = 55.238567,--FOV hAngle = 0.000000, vAngle = -90.631294, x_trans = 0.158523, y_trans = -0.137064, z_trans = 0.250000, rollAngle = 0.000000, }, [5] = { viewAngle = 35.000000,--FOV hAngle = 0.000000, vAngle = -10.651850, x_trans = 0.327622, y_trans = -0.278207, z_trans = -0.244799, rollAngle = 0.000000, }, [6] = { viewAngle = 34.340549,--FOV hAngle = 0.000000, vAngle = -9.500000, x_trans = 0.000000, y_trans = 0.000000, z_trans = 0.000000, rollAngle = 0.000000, }, [7] = { viewAngle = 35.000000,--FOV hAngle = 0.000000, vAngle = -10.651850, x_trans = 0.327622, y_trans = -0.278207, z_trans = 0.244799, rollAngle = 0.000000, }, [8] = { viewAngle = 68.628296,--FOV hAngle = 68.292320, vAngle = -11.477349, x_trans = 0.000000, y_trans = 0.000000, z_trans = 0.000000, rollAngle = 0.000000, }, [9] = { viewAngle = 68.628296,--FOV hAngle = 0.000000, vAngle = 30.227919, x_trans = 0.000000, y_trans = 0.000000, z_trans = 0.000000, rollAngle = 0.000000, }, [10] = { viewAngle = 68.628296,--FOV hAngle = -67.172974, vAngle = -11.477349, x_trans = 0.000000, y_trans = 0.000000, z_trans = 0.000000, rollAngle = 0.000000, }, [11] = {--look at left mirror viewAngle = 70.000000,--FOV hAngle = 20.000000, vAngle = 8.000000, x_trans = 0.360000, y_trans = -0.041337, z_trans = 0.000000, rollAngle = 0.000000, }, [12] = {--look at right mirror viewAngle = 70.000000,--FOV hAngle = -20.000000, vAngle = 8.000000, x_trans = 0.360000, y_trans = -0.041337, z_trans = 0.000000, rollAngle = 0.000000, }, [13] = {--default view viewAngle = 75.000000,--FOV hAngle = 0.000000, vAngle = -23.000000, x_trans = 0.360000, y_trans = -0.041337, z_trans = 0.000000, rollAngle = 0.000000, Windows 10 Pro - 64 Bit / ASUS ROG Strix B650E-F Gaming / AMD 7800X3D / G.Skill Trident Z5 NEO 64GB DDR5 6000 Ram / SSD M.2 SK hynix Platinum P41 2TB / MSI Gaming GeForce RTX 4090 SUPRIM Liquid X 24G / SteelSeries Arctis 7 Headset /LG-Ultragear 38" IPS LED Ultrawide HD Monitor (3840 x 1600) / Track IR4 / Thrustmaster TPR Pendular Rudder Pedals / Virpil HOTAS VPC Constellation ALPHA-R & VPC MongoosT-50CM3 Throttle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pineapple Pete Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Me too. I have been scratching my head (the one with the hole in it) on how to do the custom snap view for the A-10C. I went to wiki and found some info. Then discovered that win 7 cannot open a .lua file. Or, maybe I just don't know how to do so. Is the something internal to Win 7 or must I find an application? As always that for all of the help. It is always best to not fly too fast or fly too slow. So I fly half fast. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fakum Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 You need to open .lua files with "NotePad++" only. You need to do a search for it and download it. Notepad itself can open it, but you will not be able to save any changes to that file successfully with just NotePad Windows 10 Pro - 64 Bit / ASUS ROG Strix B650E-F Gaming / AMD 7800X3D / G.Skill Trident Z5 NEO 64GB DDR5 6000 Ram / SSD M.2 SK hynix Platinum P41 2TB / MSI Gaming GeForce RTX 4090 SUPRIM Liquid X 24G / SteelSeries Arctis 7 Headset /LG-Ultragear 38" IPS LED Ultrawide HD Monitor (3840 x 1600) / Track IR4 / Thrustmaster TPR Pendular Rudder Pedals / Virpil HOTAS VPC Constellation ALPHA-R & VPC MongoosT-50CM3 Throttle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-0303- Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 (edited) Lua files are plan text files. Any text editor, including notepad will do. No reason NotePad can't save files. NotePad++ is a far better, more advanced and free editor though. As easy to use as Notepad. NotePad++ recognizes a great number of source codes including lua and will helpfully color code the syntax making it easier to read (comments are green etc...). To open any file with anything (more or less successful) use Win 10 rightclick "Open with". Better, associate file type lua with text editor of choice. Again NotePad++ is very good. Rightclick on lua file -> Properties - > Change. Scroll down, NotePad++ will be in the list if installed.
