Can't see good enough in your planes?
« on: February 14, 2007, 11:33:03 PM »
Lately Ive talked to quite a few people in the game, unaware that you can change to views you see. This is an example of what you see with the default views in a P47, and how you can adjust those views with the arrow keys and pageup/down keys.

   Sit on the runway,engine off, and look out the left side of the plane. Iron in your way? Use the arrow keys and pageup/down to make it better. DON'T FORGET TO PRESS THE F10 KEY TO SAVE THE VIEW. Some planes allow better views than others, P51s are better than FM2s for example.

  Do it for every view, every plane.

Great work...

Personally I have all my view (except for the front view) pulled back as far as possible.

I do this so I have the largest viewing angle availabe, it allows me to keep my SA up.

This information is all on the trainers website. Note that you can even download a file for your settings folder that will set all your views at once.

YA Rolex, but after talking to someone who has played this game quite a while lastnight, and finding out he wasnt aware of it, I thought it may help. I know alot of people dont visit those sites, but do visit here so I thought I'd pop it in as a heads up.

No, it doesn't because the angle of your view (pitch, roll) stays the same even if you've moved to the side, up/down, or forward/back.  In forward view you rounds will always go to the center of your screen even if you can't see the gunsight reticle itself.

Not with a reflector gun sight. You can put that pipper anywhere in the glass. Thats where the rounds go.

Rgr that FiLtH. Just wanted to point out the file that sets them all. It may not be to everyones' preference, but it's a good starting point.

dayum-  been playin AH about 5 years, knew you could move in cockpit, knew you could save head position, never thought of putting the 2 together-LOL

My usual ride has excellent views, but they just got a lil better. I did always wonder how some people can see so well outta 38s when all I could see was bars.  Thnx!
