Gunsight 109 propositions

[Robo.]

I am a TrackIR user and I fly the 109 quite a lot. I don't feel penalised in any way and I take it as a game limitation regarding the real life binocular vision vs. 2d monitor. I can't think of any better way of portraying the Bf 109 gunsight but I believe that with some fiddling with the TrackIR curves, one can achieve prety much perfect control of the head movement and if you know where your aiming position is, you see the ReVi just where it's supposed to be.

I don't think that coming back to the Il-2 ninja Ctrl+F1 pilot or displaying the crosshair around the ReVi glass would be of any benefit to so called reality in the sim. I understand what you mean though, it took me a while to get use to it.

For all 109 pilots with TrackIR - I lean my head down and to the left a bit, then hit my center TIR button, which brings my aim straight in front of the gunsight and I keeps it there even during fierce dogfight. Compared to the 6DoF mod in Il-2, I obviously had to alter my profile (was too fast and agressive around the centre), but this certainly did the trick for me and it might for someone else, too.

Just my 0.02
