Rise up the default view


Mig Fulcrum

Recommended Posts

As the title says, it's pretty annoying to adjust every time the view because i find it's too low, these screenshots show the default POV and a zoom to show better what's pointing, then there is my suggestion, this can also reduce the "bubble" feeling of the cockpit frame.

It's a very little change that can help a lot so please, can you do it?

You can customize your neutral position, and save it so you dont need to do it again next time.

 

Customising the Default View:

1. Press Num5 to reset your view to the current default.

2. Adjust your view to what you want as the new default but do not use any snap view keys in the process!

3. Press RALT+Num0 - your new default view should now be saved.

Test it by changing your view, then pressing Num5 - your view should return to your customised default!

 

Disable/Pause your Track-IR/Head-tracker while doing it !

That didn't work for me. RALT+Num0 wasn't saving it.

 

Tick the save users custom snap views in the game menu options.

The view settings should be saved on /saved games/dcs/config/view/SnapViews.lua ... on Windows File Explorer check rhe modification date for this file .. if it is the current date, then DCS is actually modifying it.

 

 

Just tried it on my DCS, and the procedure does work.

It has today's date but my view stays the same. All i'm trying to do is have my default view zoomed in a little.

 

So, i'm sitting in the cockpit. I zoom in a little to where I like it. I then click RALT+Num0. It will stay there as long as I stay in the cockpit. If I go back to the main page and then back to the cockpit my view is zoomed back out.

 

What did I do wrong?

 

btw..Trackir isn't turned on for this.

Did you do the step 1?

 

"1) Press Num5 to reset your view to the current default. "
