JEFX Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 Hello I wonder if someone could kindly help me, I have a new problem. I have been flying DCS since LOMAC , day 1, and never had this before : I was fiddling with the snapviews for my brand new version of DCS A-10C (World version, 1.2) with the usual procedure : bringing in one snapview with RCtl-Num0 and then the desired Numpad #, going back to normal F1 view, adjusting the angle, saving this angle with RAlt-Num0, and so on for my favorite snapviews. At some point a few minutes ago, I realized that my main F1 view is no longer centered normally but strongly tilted downwards ??? (see attached screenshot). (the screen is a bit wide because I am on 3 screens with TripleHeadtoGo). I am using Tir and when I hit the center command, I get that angle too??? Is there a parameter somewhere in the config or views that I could correct to look directly forward in front of me rather than downwards like that??? thanks for your help!

JEFX Posted August 31, 2012 Author Posted August 31, 2012 solved! SOLVED! Thanks to PeterP! I was doing intense search and found this thread : http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=1397940&postcount=2 where I found what values account for what in the cockpit default view... BUT... it still didnt work until I realize that IF YOU SAY FALSE TO usedefaultsnapviews, the file that will be used by the simulator is no longer the defaultSnapViews but rather users/yourname/saved games/DCS/config/view/SnapViews.lua There, I was able to edit the values for the default cockpit view (F1), lines 1045 to 1051 in version 1.2 and get rid of my problem.:) Thanks PeterP JEFX 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] In DCS I fly jets with thousands of pounds of thrust...

PeterP Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 (edited) Your welcome - every time again! (sorry didn't saw your post before - but as I see: the forum-search is not so useless as many say !;)) Edited August 31, 2012 by PeterP
Echo38 Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 Yep, Peter's post is pretty much the only reason I didn't throw my joystick through my monitor at frustration at this otherwise-wonderful sim's rather unwieldy* camera system. ; ) * For non-TrackIR users, anyway.
