Hi all-
Still flyin' around in your great 172 and having lots of fun.
Anyway, I would like to fix (set as default) the VC zoom to 50 or 60 from the stock 30.
Yes, I'm aware of the + and - keys to adjust it.
However, I have a three monitor setup and as a result, the stock 30 zoom is so far out (on the edges the windshield disappears) that everytime I go to spot view and back to VC I have to hit + two or three times to get the zoom correct.
If I don't go to spot, manually hitting + to get the zoom to 50/60 sticks.
I looked in the aircraft.cfg but couldn't find anything regarding this.
So, there's your Sunday problem :>)
I know EZCA and Chaseplane have this functionality, but as I noted in the post below, EZCA 3.1 just gives me the shakes and I tried CP way back and didn't like it because it had to access a server online which I was not interested in.
Thanks,
Mark
Can camera zoom be set (changed) internally?

Hi Mark,
If you prefer to stay away from EZdok etc, perhaps the easiest way to change the default zoom in the cockpit is as follows:
There are other ways to adjust zoom levels on a per aircraft (or per view basis), but having a consistent zoom level for all aircraft tends to be best for judging speed and altitude.
Thanks,
Nick

- Launch your default flight.
- Set the default zoom as you wish it to be using +/-.
- Resave the flight and use the checkbox to make it the new default flight.

Hi Nick-
What i did prior to seeing your response is finding what I needed in the cameras.cfg.
I set VC to .5 and all is well. I'm also trialing SimpleCam from Aivlasoft which is working great.
No jerking and real simple :>)
Thanks,
Mark
