[REQUEST] First Person Bale Out - onelifecrisis - 20.07.2009
Maybe my memory is playing tricks, but I could swear that the original IL-2 back in 2001 kept the camera in first person mode when you baled out? I now play 1946 and it automatically switches to the external view when I bale out, but I'd rather have the camera stay in first person like it used to. Maybe this would be an easy tweak for someone...?

wudn't mind the camera for First person to act like you jumped out of plane

Nothing about this game is easy to work with and I only work on the sound and video side of things , dont get me wrong when I tell you that the question your asking has bin asked time and time again , and no one seems interested in takin it on , if it IS somewhere still in the game it would mean a modder spending alot of time diggin it out , and I for one would prefer to see new ac brought into the game instead , dont you agree .
Ill keep my eye on this one for a little while , if theres not much interest , then ill make it quietly dissapear....fair enough?

Oh, I see. Well if it's been asked time and time again already then you can make this thread disappear now AFAIC.

First person bail outs are a feature that I've always hoped for. I guess it won't hurt to add my endorsement one more time... :yay:
- fpoamaster - 20.07.2009
I think it would be more realistic but hard to do if not already in game locked somewhere
- Vmax - 21.07.2009
I'd like to be in 1st person view too while bailing out.
It would add a big + in realism for me...
greets,

I would not mind the 3rd person view so much if we could get rid of that ridiculous spread eagle pose the pilot performs when he jumps. Realism killer.

As I remember it was EAW that had the first person view bail out not the original IL-2, but I'm not sure if it that was a mod or not, certainly made it more realistic though and you stayed in that view all the way down. Strange thing is why it's never used in flight sims generally, they all jump to the third person which looks totally non sim like.

I've never even heard of EAW.
I know I played a flight sim where you bale out in first person, and I could have sworn it was IL2...
The last flight sim I played that wasn't IL2 was called Total Air War. Hmm, maybe that was the one where I baled out in first person?

look, that would be a mod I'd support! I can remember reading accounts of pilot waiting with opening their parachutes until they had cleared the dogfight they were in (ground permitting, of course!).

This has been talked about before. It would be cool, but as far as MODS go it is not of prime concern and it would take a long time to make such a mod, even considering the fact that there is a high probablity it wouldn't work properly...
- Dynamo11 - 23.07.2009
Well it would be a nice little touch to the game but it is definitely at the bottom of modders' piles.
I also think it would be incredibly hard to do, but then again I'm negative about most things and
can't mod for my life!!!
Here's hoping someone decides to put this into the game.
- onelifecrisis - 23.07.2009
My original request was based on the (apparently incorrect) belief that the original IL2 featured a first-person bale-out view. I figured that if the code is already hidden away in the game then switching it on might be as simple as changing a 1 to a 0 somewhere. But it seems that IL2 had no such feature, in which case I agree that trying to make this mod would probably be a waste of time.
Die, thread! :lol:
