Spot Plane View

Postby mtekce » Sat Mar 08, 2003 8:42 am

When you are in the Spot Plane View (looking at the plane out side view) if you press NumPad 2, you see the plane behid, if you press NumPad 1, you see the plane frond view ect.  However, how do you adjust the hight view angle?  When I view the plane in different angles, in the previous versions I could see the plane in different angles in different hights. Now plane moves around but I can't adjust the view hight.  Would you please help me.  I am not asking for cockpit view, so I am not asking Shift+Enter or Shift+SpaceBar.  I really appritiated you help.  
Cheers,
Mike

Use the hat button on your joystick to pan around. Failing that you have to go into settings and keyboard assignments and set the keys to work in increments rather than fixed positions.

If you have no choice but to use the keyboard, it's shift + enter and shift + backspace to alter the height of yor spot plane view by default.

I think, I have the same problem.  The problem is not the cockpit view.  When you are looking at the plane from outside, you can't adjust the hight.  The shift+enter and shift+spacebar doesn't work for this.  They only work for the cockpit view. Please some one help.

No, I have the numlock keys on. I tried both actually. I can view the plane from all directions.  But eye level stays the same. I am trying to see the plane a little bit higher than it is.  I could adjust hight in the earlier versions but with this one I can't.  Thank you so much for your help.

Sorry it doesn't work. I've truly no idea why not. It does for me so it's difficult to simulate the problem.
