maturin Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 For the love of all that is holy, yes! Makes seat-switching a terrible experience. At least let us interrupt it with our own zoom commands.
falcon_120 Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 You can stop it if you press * or / at mission start.
kobac Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 For me it's not a big problem. Just press the Enter key on the numeric keypad [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]Everything is possible ...
-MadCat- Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Yes, please remove it, please please please !!!:helpsmilie: For the life of me, I cannot see any purpose for that, other than giving this "wow, didn't know I had that much alcohol past night, how the heck did I get in here"- effect. At least make it optional so those who don't like it can switch it off in the options or by editing an .lua entry. Link -> Stateful button commands for many DCS modules
EchoMasterMind Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 +1 It's such a small and unimportant thing, yet still it drives me insane ;) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
sobek Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 This is not a gizmo, there's a technical reason that the devs implemented it, though i don't remember the specifics. Also, there are already numerous threads about this topic so please make better use of the search function. 1 Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa! Use punctuation, save lives!
Irregular programming Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Well, ED should make use of the search option then and remove it. This has been driving me insane since early beta and still do.
zaelu Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 I would also be interested on the reasoning behind this annoing feature. The zoom buttons can stop it but not the axis... head tracking doesn't work while this is on, clicking buttons in cockpit is imposible cause they run away beneath your fingers... ...what can I say, it feels like an out of body experience might feel. And then you go: "frack this, let me go god dammit" and you press numpad* while shaking diperately your head and rocking the zoom axis back and forth like a drunk monkey. This has to go somehow.

sobek Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 I would also be interested on the reasoning behind this annoing feature. It had something to do with setting the correct fov regardless of aspect ratio and resolution. Ironically, i can't find the thread where the devs explained the feature myself currently. Duh. :) Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa! Use punctuation, save lives!
WildBillKelsoe Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Normally I hate it, but with AAR, this is a must! I normally zoom out clean from num 5 to the yellow / black top edge of downlock override panel touching my monitors lower rim.

atsmith6 Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Whatever the reason, I agree, please remove the zoom out. As a graphics programmer myself I cannot think of a single thing this would achieve beyond that Hollywood experience for new players. Perhaps the technical reason was a marketing person making a technical spec :P Don't get we wrong, I think this team are second to none! Lots of love from me for the most amazing sim-flight experience. I have and will continue to buy everything they release. I just don't like the zoom. It makes me wait... (hmm, could that be the technical reason?)
mnrty Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 I cant believe this is such a big problem. Its there for like 3 seconds, and its gone? Wouldnt you rather let them work on fixing the CBU's from killing your FPS or some other major bug?
zaelu Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Nooo... they should stop ASAP and fix this! Hammers and blow torches should not stop a second until it is done! :P [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] I5 4670k, 32GB, GTX 1070, Thrustmaster TFRP, G940 Throttle extremely modded with Bodnar 0836X and Bu0836A, Warthog Joystick with F-18 grip, Oculus Rift S - Almost all is made from gifts from friends, the most expensive parts at least

Devrim Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 I want them to remove this zoom-out thing too. But if ED would ask us, "Choose one; 'Tree collision' or 'zoom-out'", I'd choose "tree collision" (Tree collision for us and especially AI units, of course!)

pocococo Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 I just came to the forums to find out how to turn this off (the mission-start zooming). I can't believe it's been this way for years and there isn't a way to turn it off. I use an axis for zoom and cannot interrupt the automatic zoom-out, so I have to sit and wait for the game to "warm up" each time. It's getting VERY annoying.
Devrim Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 Axis zoom may not stop it, you're right. Hit Zoom-in or out key to stop it. By the way; I assigned Zoom-In [*] and Zoom-out [/] commands to mouse-stick on HOTAS. At mission start, it stops, as soons as I touch mouse-stick. 1 Intel i7-14700@5.6GHz | MSI RTX4080 SuperSuprimX | Corsair V. 64GB@6400MHz. | Samsung 1TB 990 PRO SSD (Win10Homex64) Samsung G5 32" + Samsung 18" + 2x8"TFT Displays | TM Warthog Stick w/AVA Base | VPC MongoosT-50CM3 Throttle | TM MFD Cougars | Logitech G13, G230, G510, PZ55 & Farming Sim Panel | TIR5 & M.Quest3 VR >>MY MODS<< | Discord: Devrim#1068
