right upward view hosed ??????
« on: August 06, 2008, 08:46:59 PM »
When ever I try to look right - up I cant adjust it. My directional keys work fine UNLESS I'm trying to adjust THAT view.

Its making life damn complicated w/in the game. Any ideas? I've checked read only settings, reloaded AH (clean) and taken various perhipals out of the picture ie stick, mouse, reset keyboard (usb).

Help?

Of course, I only see what he posts here and what he does in the MA.  I know virtually nothing about the man.  I think its important for people to realize that we don't really know squat about each other.... definately not enough to use words like "hate".

There's a few planes you can't move that view...

some you can only move backwards or away, but never the way you want. It's been that way since I started AH

Never works for me if I use keypad numbers alone.

Routine: 

A - Press '5' on keypad to get straight up view.
B - Push left (or right) on your stick's directional hat.
C - Adjust view to your liking.
D - Carefully hold both '5' and direction on stick hat (will need to swap fingers on the '5' to get to the 'F10') and save.

That will work.

The problem is that many of the keys on the keyboard use the same "data bus." If three of the keys on the same one are pressed at the same time, they won't work. So, some of the views won't save depending on your keyboard; that's why using the joystick hat switch will work, as that's on a separate path altogether.

Usually when this occurs, the motherboard speaker will beep as BIOS gets ticked at you. ;)

Thanks Mazz, I'll try this.

I never heard an offending beep. Just wouldnt MOVE to the postion period much less save. I'll try Mazz's fix and see if this functions. If not.... I'm clueless.
