First off, thanks for answering-you always give it a shot!
OK, I had actually retreated a driver set because the newest Catalyst driver was causing terrible flashing of the clouds. Went back to the previous driver (which worked perfectly but I can't help going for the latest and greatest!) and pulled up a quick mission to see if it fixed the problem.
It did fix the cloud/flashing issue but none of my previous "view" settings worked. Had a thought (yeah, scary) and started up the current mission I was flying in campaign and sure enough, everything was as before. Question-why don't the external view settings from the campaign work in the quick missions? I was flying a Pfalz XII during both attempts so I hadn't changed aircraft...
Edit: Just tried it again and my setup is good in campaign and doesn't work with any "external" views in quick mission. I went into options and made sure that the same "setup" was being used and it appears it is....
Fixed it-apparently enable spectators was reset here as well with the last update.
