Hat switch

[Roger]

Has anyone sussed out how to make the hat switch in spot view travel in the same direction as it does in Fs9 + 10...it's bugging me, lol!

Funny, just posed on the same thing in my response to you. Drives me nuts as well!

Thanks Craig...great news

The box at the bottom of this screen doesn't do it?

I don't have it, but I did notice the checkbox.

This is from the AVSIM review:

Hope this helps,

Hi Tom,
I tried that but it did not give the desired effect. As Craig said above, it seems to be a bug, waiting to fixed.

Thanks for posting. This was bugging the heck out of as well.

What's the problem?

Panning is reversed compared with FS9/FSX, so ... ?

 

[limjack]

Trim switch opposite as well. In my mind I know they are the opposite of fsx on the force feedback but just like when the electrify goes out you keep on trying to turn on the dang light. In this case I go to trim my aircraft and really mess things up.

Jim, in the control settings you can reassign the trim button to make it the same as FsX but not the hat switch.

Oh good, did not see that.

Thanks Roger

Hi,

I had the same concern regarding the pan direction. I couldn't recall in which forum I saw this but I solved it and posted the fix in the Flight forum at Flightsim.com. I simply changed the Spot view HeadingPanRate from 75 to -75 in the Cameras.cfg file.

Outstanding!

Edit:
Hmmm, doesn't seem to work for me.

Hi,

I knew I posted this erroneous information somewhere else and spent several hours looking for it. I guess I just got so used to the opposite rotation that I thought it was the same as FSX when I made the edit. There was no change whatsoever. In fact the camera definition which I suggested be edited had a "CycleHidden=Yes" entry. My apologies to anyone who may have suffered as a consequence of my error.

No problem Jim,

+1 My computer did not burn, the wife is still with me and I was able to get out of bed this morning. Thanks for trying.
