gypsymoth Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 I've come across this view in a panel for FS2004 & I'd be grateful if someone who knows about these things can tell me what the numbers stand for ? Fixed Window37=Camera View VIEW_DOWN_WINDOWS=37 VIEW_DOWN_ZOOM=0.500 VIEW_DOWN_EYE=0.000, -5.000, 0.000 VIEW_DOWN_DIR=45.000, 5.800, 0.000 [Fixed Window37] file=vinten70mm.bmp file_1024=CameraView.bmp size_mm=1024,768 position=4 visible=0 ident=30 sizeable=1 render_3d_window=1 I would like to change the view to look less down & more straight ahead towards the horizon.................... Mank thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiger1962 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 The first number in the View Down Dir line is the angle of the vertical axis in degrees: VIEW_DOWN_DIR=45.000, 5.800, 0.000 That's the one to change.

gypsymoth Posted February 19, 2020 Author Share Posted February 19, 2020 Hello. Thank you. Can you tell me what the other numbers do ? Cheers. Terry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiger1962 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 (edited) Yes, the three numbers are degrees of pitch, yaw, and bank. In other words: rotate up or down, swivel left or right, and lean left or right. If you put a number in and the view's moved the wrong way, add a minus symbol ( - ) to make the number negative and the view will move the opposite way.
