Request; Lower POV for 262? - Murph - 29.07.2008

I just got my 6DOF gear the other day and I'm loving it except for the ME262- the pilot's POV is much too high in gun sight off/zoom view, making it impossible to view through the gun sight, even if I lower my head a LOT.
Is it possible to modify the FOV such that the pilot is sitting lower, so that the sight can be used in 6 DOF? Thanks- Mods feel free to move this if it's in the wrong section.

Wrong area mate, should be in "mods discussion".

This is probably not the right thread for this problem.

But:

SHIFT + F1 can work wonders!

(Or whatever you have the "Toggle Gunsight" view bound to if you have changed the keymapping)
It should switch you to a position directly behind the gunsight.

This also goes for all fighter planes (is different for bombardier positions in bombers).
You should also find that it improves over-the-shoulder vision in most fighters.

Note that the 6DOF mod does not change the default head position - the "high" position was programmed into the 262 in the original game, and SHIFT + F1 has always been the way to get the gunsight lined up...


EDIT: OOPS! Ignore the above!

I didn't take in your question properly the first time...

The matter of no 6DOF in gunsight view has been discussed in the thread for the 6DOF Mod and it was (I think) stated that this would not be changing any time in the forseeable future.

Oh well, not harm in asking.
