REDEYE_CVW-66 Posted April 1, 2017 Posted April 1, 2017 Nevermind- worked it out when I read through the thread properly. I sued these setting for the above view Chase = { LocalPoint = {-2.0, 0.5, -1.146}, AnglesDefault = {179.0, 0.0},
Lonestar Posted May 28, 2017 Posted May 28, 2017 I did this video to show some of the camera angles. I will probably do it again, as it does not cover the combat aspect. I show how the fly past views half way through. I hope it helps people. https://www.youtube.com/edit?o=U&video_id=oRT7Y03pYo8 DoctorStrop... Your link does not take to your video.

Wodzu Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 Hello, im read all posts in topic but i don't se information how can i back to default view when i change camera on LAlt+F2 combination. Any suggestions? http://www.gildia.org
Ala12Rv-watermanpc Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 just press LAlt+F2 again... Take a look at my MODS here
Wodzu Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 It's not working. When i press again, then i lock camera on latest position. I mean back to the default position. http://www.gildia.org
ED Team Glowing_Amraam Posted October 7, 2017 ED Team Posted October 7, 2017 Press #5 on the numpad. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgJRhtnqA-67pKmQ3A2GsgA ED youtube channel https://www.facebook.com/glowingamraam My facebook page
Wodzu Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 (edited) In this video i show, what i mean. I cant back view from the end of the film to view at the beginning of the recording. Num5(my fault), not working at this example. Another problem is, how back to my original head movement which I performed in flight. Because when I starting track, head movement it's ok, but when i change camera to F2 and back to F1, default my head movement is disabled. I remember this option is can to do in Lock on i think so.

Texac Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 Your example has already been answered by Glowing_Amraam, F5 is the wrong key. Pressing the Alt+F2 button again will lock the F2 view again after you centered it with key "5" from the numpad. However I don't think you can get back to the default/original head movements from the track. Only option would be to reload the track I think. - My Skins/Liveries - Improved F-16C Texture Template • Texac on YouTube •
Wodzu Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 (edited) Pressing the Alt+F2 button again will lock the F2 view again after you centered it with key "5" from the numpad. Exactly, now succeeded. Just in the wrong moment I pressed Num5. I used Num5 at first press alt + F2, but I did not try after pressing again. Thank you . As for restoring the original headmove, I will wait, maybe someone will know how to restore this option. Edited October 7, 2017 by Wodzu http://www.gildia.org
Baz000 Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 Anyone know how to best see the view from the pilot's perspective of an AI wingman flying in different formations? In other words, looking from an AI wingman pilot's view turned towards lead plane (player) to be able to discern visual references on lead's plane (player)... So that when another player is flying I can use those same visual references / checkpoints as a guide to offer them to keep a proper formation. What trickery can I use with the camera system in DCS to accomplish this? For example the fingertip formation references, the echelon, and line abreast...
Texac Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 Go to the F4 view and use the mouse to rotate, the internal (or external, not sure) zoom keys to move forwards and backwards. I would recommend to use TrackIR as well to get the right view angle. - My Skins/Liveries - Improved F-16C Texture Template • Texac on YouTube •
Nealius Posted November 6, 2017 Posted November 6, 2017 Does the Shift-Ctrl-Num2/4/6/8 for F4 camera positioning not work on tracks recorded by a multiplayer server? The Shift-Ctrl-Num/ and * keys will position the camera forward and aft, but the direction keys will not position the camera laterally or vertically. For reference I'm trying to get a shot like this: It seems that this is only possible with client's tracks.
Fish Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Probably somewhere above in the thread, but can't find it . How do I cycle through other aircarft in the mission to get the F2 or F3 view of them? 1 Fish's Flight Sim Videos [sIGPIC]I13700k, RTX4090, 64gb ram @ 3600, superUltraWide 5120x1440, 2560x1440, 1920x1080, Warthog, Tusba TQS, Reverb VR1000, Pico 4, Wifi6 router, 360/36 internet[/sIGPIC]
ED Team Glowing_Amraam Posted November 21, 2017 ED Team Posted November 21, 2017 Simply by pressing the F2 key til you find the aircraft you want. Then all the view keys will work as normal on that specific aircraft. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgJRhtnqA-67pKmQ3A2GsgA ED youtube channel https://www.facebook.com/glowingamraam My facebook page
Fish Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 Cheers Amraam. Hadent got 'external views' enabled in the mission editor. :doh: Fish's Flight Sim Videos [sIGPIC]I13700k, RTX4090, 64gb ram @ 3600, superUltraWide 5120x1440, 2560x1440, 1920x1080, Warthog, Tusba TQS, Reverb VR1000, Pico 4, Wifi6 router, 360/36 internet[/sIGPIC]
ED Team Glowing_Amraam Posted January 13, 2018 ED Team Posted January 13, 2018 I don't think that's possible, but I have noticed (in the internal and tester builds we are using) that the position of the Freecam (F11, or CTRL-F11) will carry over even when you quit the mission. In other words, you can just find a good spot, maybe just have your pilot bail out and walk to whatever position is good, then use the freecam and place the camera at the pilots head height (hight?) , if that's a word. Anyway, when you quit the mission, and do whatever changes in the editor - when you start the mission again, and you simply press F11 , the camera will be placed where you left it off, on the spot. Maybe that could work. :) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgJRhtnqA-67pKmQ3A2GsgA ED youtube channel https://www.facebook.com/glowingamraam My facebook page
colubridae Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Hi Mr. Bucic. I have a quick question (sorry if it's been answered already), how can I remove the info bar at the bottom of external view screens? please. :-)

Bucic Posted February 21, 2018 Author Posted February 21, 2018 Lctrl+Y (2 or 3 times will completelly remove it. ;) Cheers IIRC there's also a LUA config entry for that. Based on what I recall I used to quickly enter some off-screen position in the appropriate section. But a better way would be to alter the default setting of course.

Octuplefire Posted March 7, 2018 Posted March 7, 2018 (edited) I think it's been discussed before about changing the default F4 camera but just to show what you can do. For FC3 A/C I edited the server.lua file in Notepad++ (DCSWorldOpenBeta/config/view) Other modules I believe you need to find the View.lua but not tested What I used for F-15C Chase = { LocalPoint = {-6.750000,1.204000,1.700000}, AnglesDefault = {165.000000,-8.000000}, For A-10C (Only works on AI) Chase = { LocalPoint = {-5.000000,1.264000,1.14000}, AnglesDefault = {165.000000,-8.000000}, Limitations: 1.Server host controls this so won't work in MP unless host applies it 2.Each aircraft needs the server.lua/view.lua editing individually Edited March 7, 2018 by Octuplefire [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
