Ezdok, how do you manage all the cameras?

Featured Replies

So its a great addon and fun to use but I'm having a difficult problem figuring out the most efficient way to use it.

 

With default FSX cameras I just switched categories and cycled through cameras dealing with the limitations.

 

Now I have default FSX cameras AND ezdok cameras with seemingly not enough keyboard keys to go around.

 

I'm curious how have you guys setup or manage all the myriad of cool and functional views efficiently during your flying?

 

Suggestions.

 

Btw, I don't own or use a fancy schmancy 200 button joystick or custom build flight panel setup, I simply use a gamepad and keyboard/mouse.

 

 

I just keep it simple - I delete all the default FSX view commands and just use Ezdok and its mouse view. In fact, I only have 3 VC views set up as I use TrackIR for taxying, takeoffs and landings so I just have a 'pilot eyes' view straight ahead on num key 8, an 'overhead panel' view on num key 5 and an FMC view on num key 0. Then I have X as the key to go outside into the Ezdok Universal camera and then a further three or four views around the outside of the aircraft which are cycle-able via the C key, which I'm using as the key to cycle between Ezdok views. That's it. So I only need to remember a handful of keyboard pushes. 

 

Often I just use TrackIR during the pre-flight as well in the pilot eyes view, as a real pilot doesn't have the ability to slide himself all over the flight deck unless he has a magic carpet. From the pilot's seat you can see all the main controls and switches if you have the seat and eye point set correctly.
