2D Panel View - Too zoomed out?

Featured Replies

Hello,

 

I'm a new PMDG NGX user, and also a new FSX user (previously used FS9).

 

I've found that the 2D panel on the NGX appears to be too 'zoomed out', giving a 'fisheye' look which means it's quite hard to get a visual on the runway in 2D panel view compared to VC/spot view etc. If I press the + key (turning the view from 1.00 zoom level to 1.50 or 2.00) it looks a lot more better, but the viewpoint points down far too much to realistically fly.

 

Does anyone know if it is possible to edit the viewpoint so it is more like PMDG was in FS9?

 

Thank you,

 

Sam Hampson

In [DISPLAY] section of fsx.cfg wideviewaspect=false.

In panel.cfg change this line:

 

[VIEWS]

VIEW_FORWARD_WINDOWS=MAIN_PANEL,MINIPANEL

VIEW_FORWARD_DIR=5.5, 0.0, 0.0

VIEW_FORWARD_ZOOM=0.8
