Is it possible to map a cockpit view zoom axis?

Featured Replies

Hi there

I am using my trackIR and its working great. The only thing that's giving me trouble is trying to map a cockpit "zoom" view axis on my TM warthog throttle quadrant slider.

I currently have "zoom" using the mouse scroll wheel, but it's a bit cumbersome. What I'd like to have (just like I have it in DCS) is my zoom mapped to a slider on my hotas, which is fantastic in combination with trackIR.

In the control settings, I can find "cockpit zoom increase/decrease" but it is 100% or 0% and there is no axis zoom to be found. Any ideas??

Thanks and since this is my first post since the introduction of FS2020, may I just say "Wow!"    *its not perfect yet but this sim is setting itself up to be a very special thing for years to come!

Yeah

 

I miss that also. I use a  zoom axis with track IR in DCS and it is a very good combination. It looks like to me zoom in and zoom out are separate commands only. Also I cannot adjust the speed of zoom in and out and its to coarse to use.

I think you will have to map it to buttons, as I haven't seen a zoom axis.

You can adjust the zoom scaler in the camera options to make it more manageable I think...not at my sim right now, but I'm pretty sure I saw this when I was adjusting the pan speed for the camera for my hat switch.
