Hi,

Using FlyInside with FSX:SE and Rift CV1 here

spending most of the time in cockpit -> virtual cockpit (captain's) view obviously. But sometimes also very nice in VR to stand in front of the plane/

I've set up 6 joystick buttons to move view point in X, Y, Z axes. but moving that is very slow.I would like to change some of the views relative to the aircraft (like for example aircraft -> right wing aft or aircraft -> tail view or aircraft -> left engine.Moving the viewpoint is too slow to change that with each new flight.

In which config file do I find the settings for this to edit?

(i don't think that Flyinside will allow any 3rd party addons like EZDOK or the other more recent one)

Thanks.

Antoine

 

 

 

I use native VR mode in P3DV4, which works nicely with EZDok. But I remember from my first VR experience with FSX-SE and FlyInside that the predefined views (accessed by A and S keys) work. They are defined in cameras.cfg and can be modified easily. Just don‘t forget to save a backup copy.

Fellow FSXSE Flyinside Simmer here

I have my viewpoints set up to my Thrustmaster Throttle hat buttons with repeat strength on max....yes it still takes a while to pan on spot view modes unfortunately.

Do you fly in multiplayer?

Are you on discord?

Thanks for the replies.

Meanwhile i found the settings in the aircraft.config file in simobjects. This is aircraft specific. I forgot to mention that i was using the PMDG NGX.

Oh good to know which settings are these?

For instance for the PMDG777

\Steam\SteamApps\common\FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes\PMDG 777-200LR\aircraft.config

You will see all camera settings there

For example, look at these 2 wing views right and left:

InitialXyz = 40.8, 8.0, -17.0
nitialXyz = -40.8, 8.0, -17.0

When comparing these numbers with the other views it'll become clear how to interpret them....

[CameraDefinition.013]
Title = "Right Wing"
Description = View from the right wing tip looking at the cockpit
Origin = Center
SnapPbhAdjust = Swivel

PanPbhAdjust = Swivel
PanPbhReturn = FALSE

AllowZoom = TRUE
InitialZoom = 0.80
ShowWeather = Yes
InitialXyz = 40.8, 8.0, -17.0
InitialPbh = 15, 0, 295
XyzAdjust = TRUE
Category=Aircraft
MomentumEffect = FALSE
ClipMode=Minimum

[CameraDefinition.014]
Title = "Left Wing"
Description = View from the left wing tip looking at the cockpit
Origin = Center

PanPbhAdjust = Swivel

InitialXyz = -40.8, 8.0, -17.0

About  238 tons for a 777 🙂

by the way i think that the 295 in InitialPbh = 15, 0, 295

must be degrees (so about 10 'o clock)

meaning changing this number to - 180 you will look in the opposite direction

But i have to try this yet.
