cabin views

[captjim]

Hello fellow simmers, captjim here (again).  Some of the planes that I have downloaded from fs9 have  indicated they have cabin views.  in fact, I saw in one of the FX aircraft that you could go into first class by hitting the "A" key on the keyboard.  What about fs9?  Any suggestions???? Thanks, captjim

The 'A' key in FSX is a new feature [cameradefinition.x], not available in FS9.

If an FS9 aircraft has the cabin modeled then you should be able to move around using the following methods:

*The FS9 'move Eyepoint' key combinations while in the VC (check Control>Assignments or the Kneeboard for the key combinations)

*Flight1's F1View utility-free-the module allows eyepoint movement using the mouse.

*Anticyclone's Active Camera-payware with more options than either of the above plus saving custom views-demo available.

******************

Matthias Neusinger's FS Recorder module-free-flight video recorder plus allows saving custom Tower, Spot and VC views which gives you something like the FSX 'A' key function.

Hi dave, thanks for the rapid response.  I will try your suggestions and see what happens.  I'll let you know, thanks again, captjim

Hi Dave,  I downloaded the "Flight1's Fiview utility onto my desktop, however I do not know where to put it in the FS9 program. captjim

First extract the zipfile. Installation is automatic. Full instructions are included in Instructions.htm.

Installation:

F1ViewSetup.exe is a self-contained application that will either install or uninstall the F1_view.dll module to and from your FS2004\Modules folder. If will overwrite earlier versions if a new version of the module is released.

You can use the F1ViewSetup.exe application as often as you like. There may be instances where you may not want to use F1_view if it conflicts with another component that you may have installed.
