Fw-190 Bar.. once and for all...

[Rickusty]

No no, the thing that is wrong is the right canopy frame... which obstructs the forward view by a lot of margin...

IRL the gunsight view wasn't obstructed at all, look at the 2nd picture, and see as the face of the pilot and the gunsight are in a totally natural position... no canopy bar is obscuring the view from the inside.

The C.202 cockpit have been made wrong from the beginning... while the C.205 cockpit and canopy frames are close to reality...

Look at those pics.



The canopy frame obscures a large part of the gunsight view.



This is the cockpit of the C.205, which was basically the same airplane with a different engine

Look how the canopy bar isn't obstructing the gunsight view, as in the black and white picture ,taken from ahead of the canopy, shows..

So, not only the C.202 has porked guns, but porked gunsight view too...

Well, the C.205 cockpit isn't the best too. Look at the windshield frame. Do you see the hole in the left upper corner ? You can see through...

Thats because the camera PoV has changed in latest patch.
Each cockpit has its holes, they are mostly not visible.
There will be fixes here and there for various cockpits in future.

NSU's pics in the first page speak alot. The first picture shows the pilot's nose and its close to eye level (but seems the camera is above).


So the bar might have been too much for the 190. But hopefully they'll RAISE the BAR in IL2 Call of Duty . . . Anyways I'll throw a plug in what great work Team D is doing . . .

For COD, there should have a pilot adjustment where line of sight and head movement changes your view of things . . . like really tall pilots would slouch or short guys would sit on a pillow or something . . .

These beat the horse threads . . . it's like newly released movie Hanna / Japanese Anime. pre teen girls shouldn't be that violent but for some reason one is compelled to watch them do a trail of blood.

The Bar shows up exactly where it should if there is no glass. They didn't model refraction and Oleg stated exactly that. If they couldn't do everything then they wouldn't do that one thing. Possibly because fudging the one would lead to demands to fudge the rest in ones and twos.
