Default view very close to center console in 1.2.2

[WildBillKelsoe]

I have both 1.1.1.1 and 1.2.2.7570_69 but when I start a flight, I feel I'm very close to the center console and HUD, that I'm literally bumping heads. This was not what I experienced and liked in 1.1.1.1. Using trackIR4.

 

My question is, (and I know PeterP will pop in and jawdrop all of us) how to get the A-10C default head position in cockpit from 1.1.1.1 to 1.2.2 ?

 

Thanks and sorry but 1.1.1.1 I never had this problem.

 

If I have to describe it, I'd say its a triangle with apex at seat and base at center console. In 1.1.1.1 it is a square. Put triangle and square on top of each other and you miss the forward left and right.

Try adjusting these values found in DCS World\Config\View\SnapViewsDefault.lua

Most likely it's x-trans and maybe FOV you'll want to fiddle with.

Just in case you are not aware, use Notepad++ and not Windows notepad to make the edits, and remember backups ;)

 

--A10C

Snap[11][13] = {}

Snap[11][13]["viewAngle"] = 60 -- default: 75.0 (FOV in degrees)

Snap[11][13]["x_trans"] = 0.26 -- default: 0.36 (Forwards/Backwards)

Snap[11][13]["hAngle"] = 0 -- default: 0 (Tilt left/right)

Snap[11][13]["y_trans"] = -0.018 -- default: 0.0413368055555555564 (Up/Down)

Snap[11][13]["rollAngle"] = 0 -- default: 0 (roll left/right)

Snap[11][13]["vAngle"] = -2 -- default: -23 (+ Tilt up/- down)

Snap[11][13]["z_trans"] = 0 -- default: 0 (left/right)

well,

it is much easier by using this instruction':

peter, this applies to trackIR? I don't use snap views.

What you calling "Default View" is a snap-view.

 

kp5 is snap [11][13] = Cockpit View = Default view.

 

So: When you use this instruction you can adjust your view "on the fly" . and you wont need to jump between the editor and reloading DCS.

 

Tip: pause TrackIR while editing the view - so you don't mess up the centreline.

 

Maybe you want to use this mod too- as it don't let you feel as your eyes are glued to the dashboard when looking to the sides.
