Default cockpit view
Hey!
I just wondering how u guy's look around when u are in the cockpit ?
I use the mouse, but i have seen that in a online dogfight, that's not an option.
How can u expand ur view, without zooming out ?
I like the first view in this picture:

image hosting

But this give's a better all around view:

But this give's me more all around view, and that just what i need!
But everything is zoomed out if u understand what i mean..
Is it a whay to look around without moving ur hand from the joystick and over to the mouse ??

-Patrick

You need to invest in a track-ir or, google how to make freelook with a web cam.
It's head tracking to let you pan your view around just by moving your head.

Once you've used It you will wonder how you ever did without it!

Around $100 for the Track IR 4 which I had and it was a game changer, it just adds to the immersion and making things easier at the same time.

TrackIR is fantastic. I tried it once for 5 minutes, and then realized i couldn't fly without it. Feels very natural. Costs ~100 dollars plus tax.

I've never tried freetrack but I've heard if you can build a good setup and have a good webcam it works great. Costs as much as you're willing to spend on a webcam, plus a few extra dollars for LEDs and batteries.

Google facetracknoir! No LEDs, just you and a webcam.
