adjust gunsight

[gius]

hello,
how to adjust pitch and bank of the weapons fire in the panel.cfg?

Gunsight Adjust

Adjust The Following:

[VIEWS]
view_forward_WINDOWS=%window_title_00%
VIEW_FORWARD_DIR=2.6, 0.0, 0.0

RED = Up / Down
Purple = Port / Starboard

Tiny changes make BIG differences - Minus is up / Starboard, BTW...

Go Get 'Em !

Microsoft managed to use three different ways to adjust the XYZ coordinates in three different files in CFS 2. Perhaps there was some necessity to do this, but I still find it rather stupifying.

VC Panel (in the aircraft.cfg file):

[VIEWS]
VIEW_FORWARD_DIR=2.5,0.0,0.0

First number = Fore and Aft
second number= Deflection or Horizontal
Third number= Verticle
-------------------------------------

2d Panel (in the panel.cfg file):

[VIEWS]
view_forward_WINDOWS=%window_title_00%
VIEW_FORWARD_DIR=1.6, 0.0, 0.0

First number = Elevation
second number= Deflection
Third number= Fore and Aft

---------------------------------------------
DP File:

[EXTRA.1]
location=-X, Y, Z
effect=fx_Krazy_?_exhaust

X = Deflection
Y = Elevation
Z = Fore and aft.

Another useful aid is Jerry Beckwith's AIM-IT utility found at Flightsim.com and many others.
