Do all cameras need the same zoom?

Featured Replies

Hey everyone,

 

I was wondering if cameras all had to have the same zoom level? Thanks.

You can set the zoom setting per-preset.

Zoom control has to be set in ChasePlane, not in the simulator

So could I use the zoom hot keys I set in preferences?

Hi Kevin

Problem WAS fixed with v0.1.662 but just had update to v0.1.663 and the same problem has re - appeared.

i.e all views in all aircraft have been altered again. Problem appears to be a zoom or camera position that has altered. All view positions been set in CP. Latest pref report below:
