2 New quirky problems tonight

Postby FLAPS_DOWN » Mon Dec 05, 2005 11:55 pm

As I was playing tonight, I noticed in all my Meljet 777s whenI try to look left out of the #######, there is something blocking my view, and when I go to VC it is cut in half? ???  Secondly, there is a horizontal line in front of my 747 ########.  I have installed the update, any ideas?  Thanks in advance.

Hi Flaps.

This is a common problem with the Meljet 777s - it comes from the cockpit viewpoint (in the aircraft.cfg file) being set too far back, so that the virtual cabin comes into view out of the front. Look for the [views] section in the cfg, and change it to:

[Views]
eyepoint = 94.0, -2.65, 2.25

This re-sets the viewpoint some feet forward, so that you can't see the virtual cabin out front. You will of course still see it if you swivel the view around, since the virtual cabin is there all the time.

Micro -

Do I need to reconfigure on all, or just the Meljets?

Here is the other problem I mentioned above regarding the 747 line:

Anyone seen anything like that before?

Just the Meljets.

Haven't seen a horizonal line that before. I've seen vertical ones, though...
