mystery zoom in VC

Featured Replies

I am seeing some very odd behavior in FSX.   I use 0.80 initial zoom in the VC for all aircraft, but for some reason the panel is now zoomed so it appears to be at, say, 120% zoom.   See screenshot below.   As a workaround, I can zoom back to 0.50 to get the same zoom I used as default, but even when I save this setting in the cameras cfg file it still reverts to this over magnification if I change views.   I first thought it was EZdok, but even with Ezdok disabled I get the same behavior.  Also tried rebuilding the fsx.cfg file, but that did not help either.

 

Any ideas?

Use WideAspecRation = True in the cfg...maybe that will hlep.

Any ideas?

 

As Ron sort of said you should try setting:

 

[Display]

WideViewAspect=True

 

in your fsx.cfg.

 

WideViewAspect is set to False in a default (rebuilt) fsx.cfg.

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't know how that setting got changed in my fsx.cfg, but that was the culprit.   Man, I was tearing my hair out trying to figure this one out.

 

LOL!

 

Thanks again

When I start FSX w/ EZdok installed my FSX config file changes....

 
WideViewAspect=True changes to WideViewAspect=False
 
When I delete EZdok and start FSX the config file does not change so it appears EZdoc is changing the config file from =True to =False.  I am running three screens in surround and need the config file to stay on =True.
 
Any thoughts on why this may be happening and how to fix?
 
Thank you!

Funny you should mention that, I was running into some issues with Ezdok recently, and I wonder if that had something to do with messing up that one entry in the cfg file.  Would be a wierd coincidence, but in all the time I have used Ezdok that was the first time I had run into that issue.
