Very stupid question
« on: July 13, 2004, 03:55:49 AM »
I'm in advanced progress in making a KI61 skin.
I would like to post some pics of it, but I can't take them :D

By going to external view, I can pan around the plane but can't get close enough for detailed pics.
By recording a movie I get the default skin.

Any advice pls ?


TY in advance

Check the basics...

zoom default key is z

you can also move in / out using [ ] (default)

Also use F3 the use F8 for pan.

You may want to adjust the angle of the sun (set time) to illuminate the image to get a better view.

Alt-s is the screenshot key.

If those keys dont function check and see if you have re mapped them.

In addition, if you want a tighter FOV (frame of view), you must hit 'z', then zoom WHILE IN THE COCKPIT.  Then go to external and the FOV should remain zoomed to your preference.  Zooming in the external views only changes the distance the 'camera' is from your aircraft and not the FOV.
