June 27, 20178 yr Commercial Member Hello! What would you recommend for the zoom setting in a VC? Thanks!

June 27, 20178 yr 1.0 for 1920x1080 screen with WideView aspect enabled. This is the only natural proportion for such screen. There is a calculation model that allows for proper calculation for every screen.
June 27, 20178 yr Author Commercial Member What about for monitors of 2560X1080?

June 28, 20178 yr There is no universal setting that works the best. Each plane requires its own settings... I can't imagine using zoom level of 1.0 in any PMDG plane, thats way too close.

June 28, 20178 yr There is a universal setup (from human eye vs monitor perspective) and it depends on monitor ratii and view aspect of sim. I use 1.0 at all my planes including PMDG. Yes it often creates a very close view on the panel. But it is how a pilot see when looking forward from his seat. All these view zooms that makes you see entire window and center panel and part of side window's frame are in fact rather jump seat views. in the past i used 0,7 and i liked it. It took me a while to get used to 1.0. Now i use it all around and it gets so new experiance in terms of observation of the environment.
June 28, 20178 yr 1 seems the most realistic to me, anything less makes the surrounding environment look odd.

June 29, 20178 yr Going from memory, PMDG state in their manual for the 737 NGX they recommend a zoom of .60. Cheers Pete Pete Markovic
June 29, 20178 yr For 1920:1080 a 0.6 zoom for Wide View Aspect = False will be more or less equal to 1.0 with WVA=True.

September 9, 20178 yr During FSX times I used 1.0 for PMDG aircraft, and I had to bring backwards the PoV way too much, so that it would occasionally get inside the headrest, which would bring other issues. Now during P3D times I'm using 0.7 for every aircraft so far with good results, it won't force me to bring backwards the PoV so much and yet it won't distort the view so that it becomes distractive. Everything looks pretty much natural this way. I'm currently using a 4k screen. Best regards, Wanthuyr Filho Instagram: AeroTacto
