[MOD] More natural Cargo View


Holton181

Recommended Posts

For anyone experience the Cargo View as being unnatural I have made a small MOD to locate it slightly differently.

Instead of looking 80 degrees relative the nose making flying while having your head out the window a bitt disorientating, at least more than it has to be, I have turned the head at an angle of 10 degrees instead (0 degrees isn't natural either). The vertical angle and head position have also been modified.

You can of course edit the file yourself if you are not happy with the result.

 

I fly with TrackIR and adopted the file according to my own preferences. There is two versions, one for 1.5.7 and one for 2.5.1 OB (test both if you have other versions, the head is turning in the wrong direction if you use the wrong MOD). OvGME ready.

The location isn't "perfect" by will. I want to move my own body and head slightly, it adds to the immersion.

 

Enjoy

PS I've done the same for the Mi-8

Yup, Very nice!

 

BTW, it works for the Mi8 as well. (Of course, you need to add the Mi8 folder to the mod).

Also, the Cockpit Camera Move functions while in this view. Ex: sliding the camera left give you more underbelly view. Quickly done if u have this function mapped to a hat or use VoiceAttack.

 

Thanks again Holton181. Rep if in spirit only.

 

 

EDIT: OOPS! Didn't notice the Mi8 link in OP.

My pleasure, happy you like it. But as you can see in my first post I linked to a Mi-8 version. It has three positions, one for the engineer back in the cargo compartment (not changed by me), and my Mi-8 version has a vertical angle of 75 while my Huey one has 65 for both pilots. But if you like the Huey numbers better for the Mi-8, just remember to have the engineer portion present.

L'importante non è stabilire se uno ha paura o meno, è saper convivere con la propria paura e non farsi condizionare dalla stessa. Ecco, il coraggio è questo, altrimenti non è più coraggio ma incoscienza.

Hi,

I need advise please, I still can't more move than is in the picture, thank you.

It looks like you are not using the "Cargo View" command [LAlt + LShift + Q]. I have it mapped to one of my buttons on my controller. It is only that view I have corrected (for both pilots).

Yes I didn't use the Cargo View, thank you.

You write that you have to the function assigned to the button.

I can assign keyboard shortcut, but not the button, is there some sort of trick?

Ah, sorry. I forgot about that small bug that never seems to be corrected. I have corrected it myself and you can download that mod here (post #28):

That mod also enables the cargo cam that is officially disabled.

I did manage to get it working and assign the three views.

 

- Natural Cargo View

- Camera External Cargo

- Indicator Cargo

 

I'm going to train and once again thank you.
