Changing Cockpit Field of View?

[Drona]

Could anyone please instruct me on how to change the cockpit field of view in flaming cliffs 2? I have a TrackIR 3 and I'm unable to zoom out to see the entire cockpit and instruments such as the RWR and the gear, flaps settings and trim settings? :(

:book: never mind.... I figured it out myself.... ;)

okay my bad... here it is Boulund.... and for the others in the community.;)

 

Open this file view.lua (found in Lock On Flaming Cliffs 2 folder) with a program called Notepad++(its free and easily downloadble). Then go to these lines in the code:

 

CameraViewAngleLimits = {}

CameraViewAngleLimits[su_27] = {20.0, 120.0}

CameraViewAngleLimits[su_33] = {20.0, 120.0}

CameraViewAngleLimits[su_25] = {20.0, 120.0}

CameraViewAngleLimits[su_25T] = {20.0, 120.0}

CameraViewAngleLimits[MiG_29] = {20.0, 120.0}

CameraViewAngleLimits[MIG_29K] = {20.0, 120.0}

CameraViewAngleLimits[F_15] = {20.0, 140.0}

CameraViewAngleLimits[A_10A] = {20.0, 140.0}

 

Increase the numbers {20.0, 120.0} to a desired range. Only the average of these two numbers will count. So the higher the average the better the ability to have a look at all the instruments in the cockpit without having to move up and down. For example... I set my Su-33 to this value {55.0, 235.0}. By doing this I can see all the instruments in the cockpit without looking up or down or side to side. It differs from aircraft to aircraft... so one would have to play around with the numbers to find out. Once done... save the file and restart the game.

Kunz, did you get your TrackIR yet?

Kunz, did you get your TrackIR yet?

 

 

Yes Cali.... I got it... TrackIR 3 Pro... Works great too.. Its just that I have to get used to flying with TrackIR now. Feels kinda weird at times... but great nonetheless. As you can see from the thread I had trouble with it initially because I was such a noob trying to figure it all out and getting it all to work but no problems now. :joystick::doh:. Probably I'll see you on the 104th tomorrow :).
