Increasing FOV

[andrea78]

S!
With german planes I have to switch to gunsight view to center head, but this reduced drastically the FOV: any possibility to incrase it?
Thanks

Have a look in here (http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showpost.php?p=253678&postcount=14), mate :)

Thanks, but it seems that I made some mistake... what doeas he mean with 'Mouse up' or 'Mouse down'? I set mouse vertical 100/-100 or mouse wheel 100/-100 but don't work.

exactly

you need to set up two key in Il2CoD controls area, and assign them both the "Hold to modify FoV action" (can't remember exactly how it's named, but it should be something like that)

then in joytokey you need to set up, for the same keys, to one mouse +100 and for the other mouse -100 for one axe (I think is for Y)

you also need to keep joytokey started, and start the IL2CoD game, then enter into a mission, and use the keys to modify zoom.
you might need to switch the F10 to not have the cursor displayed, otherwise I think yo'll only move the cursor by pressing those keys.

Here is how I got my zoom/FOV to work smoothly using xpadder.

I tested using mouse button 5 + mouse Y axis and the cockpit is clickable at any FOV/zoom level so the devs could just add a new binding to the game for smooth zoom.

Also I managed to bind "mouse button 5 + mouse Y axis" to the left POV on my Saitek x52 using Xpadder (the Saitek software wont let me bind a mouse button and mouse movement to one button :() so smooth FOV change is working pretty well for me now.

I wish I didn't have to run xpadder to make it work, but at least I got my smooth zoom back (and it works with TiR). :D

Nice man. I allways wanted a smooth zoom system like this.. Will have to remember about this.. I too hope the DEV will add this feature too
