SirJ Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 You can try uning zoom...Which is anoying because you have to rezoom every time... https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=201471 they got the same question...so maybe you get some luck there The Lua seems to be A/C specific so make sure you get the right section Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knock-Knock Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 (edited) Make sure save user snap views is enabled in your options. When in cockpit: 1. / and * on numpad adjusts FOV (some call it zoom). 2. RCTRL+RSHIFT / and * on numpad moves view for/aft. 3. RCTRL+RSHIFT 8 and 2 on numpad moves view up/down. 4. 8 and 2 on numpad pitches view up and down. 4. When happy with your view/FOV, save it with RALT+0 on numpad. Thats what I do now on single monitor, and what I did back in the day when I used a 3 monitor setup. Edit: Oh, and if you have Track IR, make sure to pause it before adjusting view.

xoxen Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Hi, you can play around with the FOV dimensions in the server.lua. Save the server.lua into the saved games folder on C: into the folder DCS\Config\View and modify it. Attached you find my data. I also have 3 displays running and also work with the extra axis at the Warthog to zoom out. The fine tuning I did like Knock-Knock has explained. I hope this helps.
