Lost outside view


Recommended Posts

I have been using FS2020 since February and I think it is outstanding. It runs very smoothly with no stutters with most settings at High or Ultra. Despite anticipating problems with each update I have had very few and I have been able to sort out most by myself.

 

However, following the last update I am having problems accessing the outside view. I was previously able to toggle between cockpit and outside view using the END key. I could hold down my mouse right click to move around in the outside view. Since the last update the END key has no effect. I have tried using the options menu but I have no success to date. I would appreciate if anyone could advise me how I can get the outside view back.

 

I mainly fly the Flybywire A320, usually relatively short flights within the UK starting from cold and dark and using Simbrief generated flight plans. For low level sightseeing flights I use the Cessna 152 or 172.

 

I look forward to any advice you can give.

Sorry for the long delay, I have been away from the sim for a while.

 

I can access the camera settings from the icons at the top of the screen and can choose cockpit, external or showcase during a flight. What I cannot find how to do is to assign a key to toggle between cockpit and external views rather than use the menu to change views, sometimes during a flight I want to change the view quickly.

The END key has always worked for me.

All I can offer is to check this link Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 keyboard controls guide.

Thank you inky160. I have checked the keyboard assignments and END is assigned to the Camera Mode Switch. I have had a quick fly and the switch works as it did before! I don't know what happened for the past few weeks. I put it down to creeping senility!
