is there a fix for this ( i have installed the sp1 for it)
 
I have the same problem too and i found out from the manual that you had to put yourself in spotcamera view and load one of the default flights and then the camera would be at normal zoom again. Not an optimal fix for me, i like to take it wherever i want with normal camera zoom.
 
May be have a look at your camera.cfg?
Anyway, it is very simple to adjust the distance of the camera whithout modifying the zoom setting !

Bug.
 
I've looked for some paints for this plane, but obviously not in the right places. Can someone give me a clue where I can find some repaints?
 
This is a out of scale poly on the mesh, it has to be solved within the source file, there is no other way around it. As you browse thru the models, you´ll see not all of them have this issue.It´s disturbing, as i consider this to be the ultimate F-5 package.
Best regards

...one year later... :)

I bought this F5 Tiger months ago and never really used it as the spot view does really spoils the add-on. It is too bad because the VC is allright.
Has a fix been released ? I didnt find anything on the Flylogic website and the support page I ended on is in German...
Thanks!

I had this airplane and lost everything in a HDD/Virus Attack, so maybe I'm missing what the problem is, but can't you simply manually zoom in to change the spot view? When I first read this, my first thought was. . ."well just use the + key and zoom in if it's too far away". lol.
 
there is no permanent fix for it but you can change the distance fo the camera NOT THE ZOOM by using ctrl= or ctrl -

The trouble is one would have to zoom like hell to get an acceptable view. Then in order to turn around the airplane, (using my track IR) I have to go very slowly (that is moving my head like I am kinda frozen) not to go from the tail to the nose in 1/10th of a second. not comfortable at all.

thanks blazefox2, I didnt know about these keys. I'll try! :)

Shame the designer hasn't provided a fix....

I use TrackIR, but using it outside the aircraft? The only movement I get outside is disorienting because it's just a side to side movement, whichever way I move my head. If I go outside for screens, etc., I just freeze the TIR while I'm shooting then activate it again once I'm back in the VC.:salute:
 
Nice tool, will be interesting if this tool can solve the problem. I agree with the others that it is a pity that this camera bug is so annoying that it ruins a very good addon. :jump:
 
Well Arno's tool works like a dream! I've just tried it on the Piaseki and having first determined that a radius of 6.0 was typical I entered that value and the bounding boxes adjust automatically. Then click on the Write button and put it in the model folder having backed-up the original. The piaski is now right up close.
great heads up again Jim:ernae:
 
Good tip, thanks. Used the radius editor on the 1-4-18 Aeronca Champ with a radius of 5. Will be flying it more often now.
