BF109 - Can't we just have the gunsight in the middle?

WOW the sights the same as it is in il2, why don't you moan at them to change that too.

Actually I do just want my view centred on sight on button push back as it was in IL2. You would still be able to lean if you want. I don't see why you oppose to this. It won't prevent you from what you want to.

You can't set up a button for the sight in CoD?

Yes you can, just press middle mouse and right mouse and its done

Buts thats apparently too much effort

Uhm, not that I know of. Not identically to IL2. But if you can show me you'll be welcome. But don't talk about the COD default shift+f1 as it is something completely different from old IL2.

@Krupi: guess what, I tried this indeed yesterday, shifting with mouse to set the view. When I go back to trackir I am automatically shifted back to centre cockpit view. It simply does NOT work. So this advice is useless.

Lixma, please go physics and explain it in an understandable way why it should be so. I still don't get it why out of miracle the opposing half of the circle should appear in the middle of nowhere.

Why is that different? When I want to line up behind the sight in IL2 I hit shift/F1. How is it different now?

OK, so it's a TrackIR issue. Is that different from how TrackIR worked in IL2?

Do you ACTUALLY play Cod and try the shift+f1 in both games? Well, obviously not. If you had you would know that in Cod when pressing shift+f1 I can NOT turn my head around and track an enemy. In Il2 I could track an enemy when pressing shift+f1. Go try it yourself.

I don't have the game yet. That's why I'm asking you all these questions. So, the problem is not the location of the sight, the problem is that you can't turn your head when you're in Shift/F1 mode, right?

were the gunsights made by Zeiss?

if so the photography methodology was used... keep both eyes open looking through the view finder
