il88pp Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 There is one that only "turns" view straight to forward. No position adjust. Look for solutions. Not for problems.:) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okbob Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 CriticalMass hit the nail on the head. I almost always fly with a 2d panel. Especially when practicing IFR. And when I do buy payware, I have to make my own 2d panel. I usually make the panel bitmap from a VC screen capture. I do not understand why it would be more costly to make a 2d gauge after the "developers" have already coded a 3d gauge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lnuss Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 Uh... That link is dead. Such things happen after 5+ years... This is an old thread. And you don't mention WHICH link, since there are no links in the few posts above. Larry N. As Skylab would say: Remember: Aviation is NOT an exact Science!

And you don't mention WHICH link, since there are no links in the few posts above. I think it was the link in post #2. One of Dave Maltby's 2d panels.

il88pp Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Adding a bit to my last message. -------------| There are 2 separate commands (keyboard assignments) for viewing ahead. = "eyepoint Reset" that does two things:It resets the view to 'forward' but it also resets the eyepoint (seat position) and zoom level. So if you had moved the eyepoint and changed zoom level in flight then using "" those things will now be reset, and you will have to adjust your eyepoint and zoom level again. A better () command to use is: "Look Forward (3-D Cockpit)" With that command the eyepoint or zoom level stay as they are. This command only resets the view to "Forward". I have "Look Forward (3-D Cockpit)" assigned to a joystick button, and use it all the time. I still have "eyepoint Reset" assigned to . Comes in handy as well but I don't use it nearly as much.
