Wide angle views on FSX Accel.

Good Afternoon All,
I believe there must be a simple solution to the following problem, but I just cannot seem to find it. Recently I found that I must have pushed the wrong combination of keys, as all the views I have on my FSX, look as though I am looking through a wide angle lens. The distortion gets more obvious as you get further to the sides of the monitor screen, and it effects both internal and external views of the aircraft. I have been through the settings menu, and tried all the combinations shown in Buttons and Keys, Views, but to no effect. There must be some way to get back to the original default settings-Anyone got any ideas? Thanking you in advance,

(Fumble Fingers), Catboat
 
Hi,

Locate your FSX.cfg file and change the following value:

WideViewAspect=False

It as to be false

The file is located in the following folder:

C:\Users\your user name\AppData\Roaming\microsoft\FSX

Cheers,

Priller
 
Thanks Priller
