more view positions
« on: June 03, 2011, 08:06:45 PM »
I would like to propose adding extra viewing positions when using the keypad. For example, pressing keys 7 & 8 would point me in an obvious direction. This may require more saved head positions, but thought it may help. Sometimes I'll run into problems where the current view angles just aren't good enough and having more will help in certain situations.

You already have 8-ways around, plus an up and down modifier for those, with complete freedom of motion for each head position.

24 views isn't enough?

I highly recommend getting TrackIR. It takes a little while to get used to, but will greatly improve your SA. Plus you get more view positions than you ever will get with a keypad.  ;)

Actually 26 when you count total up and down  :neener:, 25 useful ones in all.
