this may have come up before, but i haven't seen it here on in manual.

when in the panzer turret, the gunsite seems to have no real telescopic effect. zooming in using arrow keys helps only a little. the gunsite site is just a round spot taking up 25% of my screen. i can see just as far from the pintle gun.

am i missing something here?

you sure are! +)

Use Z key and the [ ] to zoom, just like in the bombsight or any other view

Something not right, you should be able to zoom right in so you can see 3 or 4 miles easy.

hit Z to toggle zoom, (Check your keymaps if you changed it)

While in zoom mode, use [ and ] to adjust the amount of zoom.

You can always re-install AH, as I did for the same problem.

ok - uninstalled AH, downloaded latest last night.

Z, [  and ] do not function in the turret. even tried remapping them.

Hey Boss,

Hmmmmmm, Z for zoom works in every pos for me.

Probably a stupid rookie statement, but have you hit "home"
for default view, then hit "Z" for zoom, then "]" to zoom in?

Dunno, just sounds like you're overlooking something simple.
Hope ya figure it out :confused:
