I am asking how to make the panning faster. It is just too slow for me. :P


Thanks

I tried that but it doesn't do much. Should I increase to the hundreds? :-?

I tried to change the numbers but it made no difference. :(

The PANNING or the MOVEMENT of the camera? Because I would like it to move faster too.

How about both?


This should be a good project to work on to end the year with something productive. ;)

How slow is it?  Slow like the aircraft view?
I have mine set at 1000 each and it moves just as fast as the VC or spot view. The only other thing I have done with my cameras is the addition of Ezdok walk FSX v1.22, so unless that somehow changed my view speed, I just figured my cfg tweak is what sped it up. It used to be as slow as the aircraft (tail/wing) view.
Sorry about that. :-[

Wow, you think the VC view is slow? :o ;D

I do use that ezdok whenever I fly though which is mouse controled in all views, so maybe that is what is changing the speed. I will reset my pan rates back to stock again and see if anything happens. I thought I just got lucky applying an FS9 tweak to FSX. I found this flex cam after I got the ezdok.

:-[ Once again, sorry for the bad info.
