I can't zoom any farther back, no matter what I put in the maxFOV value

Open Viewlist.ini,
Goto ViewClass2,
Change OffsetDistance=0.06 To OffsetDistance=-.175, or -.180 (you can increase this in small increments.)

I missed the " - " on the offset. All better now

Thanks

Hmmm, might have to try this out again. I've only had FSX & XPX installed since last summer and am somewhat getting back into combat sims. Recently installed DBW for il-2 and wow!

Hi Skatezilla,

I owe you many thanks for your kind help with the FOV issue in the strike fighters series. I disappeared as I was tangled up with exams, reports and other end-of-academic-year nonsense. Now that I am on holiday, I returned to the flight sims in a big way, and just as I was about to consign Strike Fighters to the "It won't run on three screens so I will never play it again" bin, I saw you tip on the offset values, tried it and bingo. The FOV is not as far back as I would have liked, but the game is now playable and great fun. I knew there must have been a simple solution that I was missing. You've brought new life to a game which plays well and looks fabulous on the three screens. Thanks again for all your help!

Peter
