I wondered if anyone might be able to tell me what each of the numbers does in a typical wingview

configuration, so that i can alter them to fit all of my planes. To show which bit i mean i have copied an example that would give three wing views to the Vista liners B727

 

VIEW_REAR_LEFT_WINDOWS=35

VIEW_REAR_LEFT_ZOOM=0.31

VIEW_REAR_LEFT_EYE=-1.1, 0.45, -26.00

VIEW_REAR_LEFT_DIR=-2.0, 0.0, 290.0

 

VIEW_REAR_RIGHT_WINDOWS=34

VIEW_REAR_RIGHT_ZOOM=0.31

VIEW_REAR_RIGHT_EYE=2.1, 0.45, -26.00

VIEW_REAR_RIGHT_DIR=-2.0, 0.0, 70.0

 

VIEW_FORWARD_LEFT_WINDOWS=33

VIEW_FORWARD_LEFT_ZOOM=1.21

VIEW_FORWARD_LEFT_EYE=-1.1, 0.15, 2.00

VIEW_FORWARD_LEFT_DIR=-2.0, 0.0, 200.0

 

VIEW_FORWARD_RIGHT_WINDOWS=32

VIEW_FORWARD_RIGHT_ZOOM=1.25

VIEW_FORWARD_RIGHT_EYE=2.1, 0.15, 2.00

VIEW_FORWARD_RIGHT_DIR=-2.0, 0.0, 160.0

 

VIEW_LEFT_WINDOWS=33

VIEW_LEFT_ZOOM=0.31

VIEW_LEFT_EYE=-1.1, 0.45, -20.00

VIEW_LEFT_DIR=-2.0, 0.0, 270.0

 

VIEW_RIGHT_WINDOWS=32

VIEW_RIGHT_ZOOM=0.31

VIEW_RIGHT_EYE=2.1, 0.45, -20.00

VIEW_RIGHT_DIR=-2.0, 0.0, 90.0

 

I've had a go at a couple but it would be better if i really knew what each set of numbers did.

Thanks in advance

Charlotte

It's been a while since I did this, so forgive me if I get it wrong.

 

VIEW_---_EYE= places the camera.

 

For/aft, left/right, up/down. Positive numbers are for, right and up.

 

VIEW_---_DIR= rotates the camera.

 

Pitch, bank, heading. Pitch is positive number is up. can't remember bank, heading is 0=forward, 90=right, 180=aft, 270=left. You can use any number in between those you wish.

 

Hope this helps.

 

regards,

Joe
