Distance between POV and cockpit

[citizen67]

Hi everybody,

I'm experimenting with head tracking using my iPhone connected via IP to OpenTrack, and since I need to find a unique setting for each plan, I'd like to understand one thing: I noticed that the cockpit, when in the default view [F1], is not always at the same distance. For example, in F-4 or F-14 it's much closer than in F-16 or F/A-18. Is there a way, somewhere in the.ini files, to define the distance of the point of view from the cockpit?

Thanks in advance

it's set in the bird's cockpit ini, afaik. What the numbers ARE actually distance-wise (as in how many meters/cm back from the dashboard) I'm not sure

[CockpitSeat001]
ModelName=F-15A_pit.LOD
Offset=0.0,0.0,0.0  <------------- i think!! this one
Position=0.0,6.43,1.06 <---- position relative to aircraft world center
ViewAngles=0.0,0.0,0.0
MaxYaw=170
MinYaw=-170
MaxPitch=90
MinPitchFront=-45
MinPitchRear=-30

If I'm wrong, hopefuly someone will correct me.

Wow, looks complicated... I was hoping for something like 40cm, 50cm... 
I'll try to increase the values in the "Offset" line. Let's see what happens... Thanks

the offset "placement" like all the 3 section locators in this game system It's left/right, front/back, up/down. Forgot to mention that! Sorry!! !!!

and it IS all metric, which make it a bit easier for people like me that went to Los Angeles City Schools (shitty at math)
