help with panning speed

Featured Replies

Hi all, I own flight, fsx, and xp 10 and for the last week I have not been able to fly any thing but flight

really like the way the planes behave in the winds and how the winds interact with the terrain. One thing I was hoping any one here could help me with was how to increase the left-- right panning speed when I am in the VC it seems to slow . I have a yoke and a stick and I notice that when I use both hat switches at the same time its about the speed I want. of course having to use both switches is a pain. I was hoping there is somewhere to adjust this setting in the CFG. file any help would really make my day . ! thanx in advance

Hi,

 

These changes in the Standard.xml worked for me:

 

 

<Down>

<EventName>PAN_VIEW</EventName>

<EventUnits>meter</EventUnits>

<Repeat>1.000000</Repeat>

</Down>

I am sorry my fellow Californian friend but I dont know what that stuff means ????? thanx anaway Jim.

Another approach that offers super fast looking around is using the mouse with the right button depressed. The wheel is then also a handy zoom...

thanks saib I know about that one I want the hat switch to pan faster I dont use track ir or fsuipc so I am off to check the config file now that I am at home on my flying box thanks for the reply. !

Hi,

 

There's a file called Standard.xml. It contains information regarding keyboard and joystick assignments.

 

It's located in this folder:

C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Flight\Players\alphanumericcharacters\Career\Controls

 

Probably a good idea to save a copy of the file at this point.

 

Open standard.xml using Notepad and using the find function, find "PAN_VIEW". Don't omit the underscore.

Replace the "32" in that section with "1".

 

If you've added different joysticks there may be multiple sections where "PAN_VIEW" appears. Make sure you, at least, change the one for your current joystick.

 

Save Standard.xml.

 

This worked for me. Post if you, or anyone else, has problems.
