Rhinozherous Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Hello! I am on the latest Beta and I use on my Warthog HOTAS the Mic switch FWD and AFT for "Zoom in slow" and "Zoom out slow". I have set Mic Switch UP to "Zoom Normal" but this a bit too far zoomed in... Is there a way to change the normal zoom level? I already have found a few topics and tried to change the default snapviews cfg. But this changed only the zoom in the first view when I enter the cockpit on mission start. When I use my Mic Switch UP for "Normal Zoom" it zooms again too much in.

Lixma 06 Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 First thing - make sure you're editing the 'SnapViews.lua' and not 'SnapViewsDefault.lua' Then find this bit of code..... [13] = {--default view viewAngle = 83.847038,--FOV hAngle = 0.000000, vAngle = -12.471437, x_trans = 0.358480, y_trans = -0.041337, z_trans = 0.000084, rollAngle = 0.000000, ....and set the 'viewangle' (FOV) to what you want. One thing to note - when you first enter the cockpit the FOV will not be e.g 83.8xxxx so you need to hit 'reset zoom' using Keypad_Enter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far I looked into the "View" folder in Saved Games and in the main directory of DCS... all I am able to find is the "SnapViewsDefault.lua" also there is a "View.lua" which not containing your code snippet. But no "SnapViews.lua". I do not have to create it myself? i7-14700KF 5.6GHz Water Cooled /// ZOTAC RTX 4070 TI Super 16GB /// 32GB RAM DDR5 /// Win11 /// SSDs only DCS - XP12 - MSFS2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But no "SnapViews.lua". I do not have to create it myself? It should create itself, assuming you've run the game at least once, and particularly if you've tried to make changes ie a snap view. In any event, changing name of the "SnapViewsDefault.lua" to "SnapViews.lua" in Saved Games should do it.
