Gunsight View in 109E
 

Would it be possible to get a "gunsight view" in which the head is centered behind the sight, but NOT zoomed in and field of view limited? Right now I use the zoom view but with trackIR you can only pan a small amount while in this particular view.. the onld game allowed something that worked well..

Right now it makes flying and fighting in the 109's significantly more difficult than the Spitfire or the Hurricane..

you tried the good old "shit F1" already ?

The idea behind the "gunsight view" at least this time around, is you are tightening your straps, hence the action is now called "tighten straps" rather than "gunsight view" So the fixed FOV limit and the low DOF make perfect sense. In my opinion anyway. But I do find the strange zoom effect when switching between tight and loose to be rather annoying.

So was it imposable to use the gun sight without loosening straps? couldn't they tilt their heads or was the site to far over? Loosening straps seems a bit dangerous in a high G dogfight.

you still can get behind the sight without shift F1 .
with whatever you control the 6DoF headmovement in game.

in my opinion loosen shoulder straps doesnt meen leaning to the gunsight. i may require loosen straps to pan around the cockpit better, look outside, check my six better etc.... this option should be re implemented and totally seperated from a center gunsight feature.

I find it VERY difficult aim at enemy fighthers using TrackIR.. - in fact it's almost impossible?

You guys are talking about a different view when aiming and using TrackIR? Shirt+F1 ?
What is the keyboard shortcut for loosen straps? ( = "gunsight view" ?)

Sorry if these are stupid questions - quite new to both trackIR and COD.

Hello,

If you have played the IL2 "classical" you know that in German planes de gunsight is for the right eye. Thus "shift + F1" trackir or not to center the gunsight.

I agree.

I doubt the Germans aimed with their noses pressed up against the gunsight in a hard dogfight. I don't like the zoom feature of 'shift+F1'.

I Just use F10 and then hold RMB and move mouse :D
