I'll be at my pc bit later and could try this -

If you pm me an email address I will send you my control ini. Save it and then load it, click apply and see if this helps with keys issue.

One for me is a missing button for looking down using keyboard. POV hat ok though.

Hi,
I have decided to nuke CoD and also Steam as its the only way of starting over, and getting default settings as there is no default restore button.
That is very annoying that there is no easy way of restoring defaults.
I deleted CoD folder in steam, then found and turned off steam cloud restore user settings (steam CoD wording top left > properties>updates tab)
I reinstalled steam then CoD, it said installing to new PC, said if wrong then nuke all but steamapps folder in steam and something else (see steam website) , so did that, still insisted was new pc, so went along with its supplied password,,hate progs like steam !!!
F2 gives me a/c in screen middle, and BINGO !!! F10 allows pan all around it.
SUCCESS !!!
There was I recall a case of getting aircraft into screen centre then F10 again. Also mouse scroll wheel gives pan excluding need for F10 but I prefer F10.

Looked in realism, all is unchecked except clouds on default. No Outside View is unticked.
F12 takes a still image, you hear a metallic ping, and a thumbnail occurs top right, CoD has locked up twice though when doing this.
Screen Capture though in options is Printscreen. I had to make it F12 when I first installed CoD, somehow F12 is now doing so, however F12 is centre view in trackIR so I need to find F12 and alter it, but where is F12 in CoD options.

DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE TO FIND THE F12 COMMAND IN OPTIONS ?
I have gone through Options now and F12 is not there, so how do I alter F12 to another key to do stills, I need F12 for TrackIr centering !

I shall probably revert PC to last saved image when all this messing around is over, if CoD keeps freezing up, but I will work my way through the mods first, they may solve that.
Clearly despite latest Steam its still glitchy as a basic install unless all this messing about via suggested and official methods has upset it.

Hope this is of use to others who despite a new install struggle with CoDs external views.

Screen capture by the way goes to different folder in steam depending on location of CoD folder and launcher you are using. best way is do a still then search on drive the CoD launcher is on *.jpg images made that day.

Did this before seeing offer of ini, so will also try that to another copy paste of the CoD folder.

Outside views...
You need a mouse with a middle button.


In outside view (F2):

PAN around aircraft (aircraft centred) = Mouse middle + move mouse around

ZOOM = mouse middle + right mouse button and move mouse forward and back to zoom

PAN to side (offset pan, aircraft un-centred) = Mouse middle + mouse left and move mouse around

Cheers, Setback

Interesting images. I've not fully explored the night time potential yet.

Anyway, here's a few examples from 00.45 hours.

Merry Christmas and a Happy Neu Jahr
