April 20, 200422 yr Hold down Shift and press Enter while in the cockpit view. This "moves up your seat" to give you a better field of view.Regards-Matt SmithPPL Student, KPWM (Portland Intl JetportOrganizer, Flightsim vs. Avsim RTW Race Matthew Smith | Priority Left Consulting www.priorityleft.com
April 21, 200422 yr If your panel.cfg has a similar entry to this then try increasing the number from what it is at the moment. {Views}VIEW_FORWARD_DIR=3If there is no entry like this try adding it in. Be sure to change the brackets to square ones as the square ones will not display on the forum messages. As far as I know it could go anywhere in the file as I have seen it near the beginning on one panel.cfg and near the end on another. Increasing the number should raise the horizon in forward view. This has a different effect to the SHIFT + ENTER command and does not distort your perspective.
April 22, 200422 yr I like that panel for FS2004, by Ken Mitchell. Adjust the forward view like Charlie recommends. I just use Shift + Enter or Shift + Backspace to adjust my seat height during approach. Otherwise, that viewpoint in your screenshot is accurate, from the pilot's perspective, if you consult various panel shots at airliners.nethttp://www.2decker.com/media/solent1-2.JPGAlex ChristoffN562ZBaltimore, MD PowerSpec G426 PC running Windows 11 Pro 64-bit OS, Intel Core i7 11700K @ 3.60GHz 30 °C, 4089MB NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 , ASUS TUF Z590-Plus Gaming motherboard, Samsung 870 EVO 2TB SSD, Samsung 750 EVO 500GB SSD, Acer Predator X34 34" curved monitor (external view), RealSim Gear G-1000 avionics suite, RealSim Gear GNS 450, Slavix Stay Level Custom Metal Panel, Honeycomb Alpha Yoke, Redbird Alloy THI, Saitek Combat Rudder Pedals.
April 22, 200422 yr Here's what I insert into almost all my panel cfg's[VIEWS]VIEW_FORWARD_MAIN=MAIN_PANELVIEW_FORWARD_DIR=2.5,0.0,0.0VIEW_FORWARD_ZOOM=0.75The first det of digits in the forward dir line can vary - just try different numbers until you are happy.The 0.75 in the zoom line gives a better feelinf of speed. You can also vary this, but I've found if you go much less than 0.75 it distorts the outside view.
