Hi,

I don't use it that much so have only just spotted it.

The F4 (gunsight) view is off centre on all the aircraft I've tried it with (DH2, Camel, SE5a, Spad.

Can't be sure when it's occurred, whether a particular patch has thrown it out or what.

Cheers

Albert

"A great deal of an aeroplane could be holed without affecting its ability to fly. Wings and fuselage could be—and often were—pierced in 50 places, missing the occupants by inches (blissfully unaware of how close it had come until they returned to base). Then the sailmaker would carefully cover each hole with a square inch of Irish linen frayed at the edges and with a brushful of dope make our aircraft 'serviceable' again within an hour."

We don't recommend you fly in that mode as the sights are aligned to the 3D model gunsights where they have them and so on - it may not necessarily be aligned with that sudo float sight.

It could also be that you pressed F6 to switch to gunsight view (sometimes offset), or you need to press F6 to cycle. Also, movement on your aircraft will spoil that aim, so make sure you are not still moving around some. Checked the Camel here and SE5a and all is centred for me.
Maybe something is modded on your PC?

The tracer that big means it has not travelled enough to appear in the circle, when it travels it will dip and appear in there.

Thanks Pol,

The only mods I had installed were my own music ones and the consolidated airfields and Verdun mods.

I decided to uninstall and reinstall the game and have reinstalled the music mods. The F4 gunsight view is now perfectly centered. Therefore it looks like the airfields and Verdun mods, or a mix of the two threw the view out. Something to bare in mind.

Anyway, sorted now.

Thanks

Albert

I run the aifields mod all the time in BH&HII and F4 works fine for me.
The mod doesn't the views file.
