External View Possible?

[cperleberg]

Is it possible to get an external view of the aircraft? From the front, say, where you can see the guns firing? The Shoulder View is not flexible enough. I can get a good external view of every other aircraft except mine.

and move your mouse around to the front for the gun fire view

Ctrl-F12 is free camera, not locked to aircraft. Use mouse to move around. Set up +- or mouse scroll wheel to zoom in and out.

Thanks! F6 does it (I didn't think the cycle A/C would start with me!)

As for the Free Camera, I press it and my aircraft zoom off.

 

[yakarov79]

so zoom in...

you know....+/- scroll up down....whatever.

Is exploring, trial and error, already forgotten in current days?

Hit pause first...

That's why that call it 'free camera'. You're free to wander around The World, not constrained by the location of your airplane.

Does nobody actually READ the Options screen options for controls??? Or make an effort to locate and read the game's manual?? SF1 and SF2 are the same, so reading the SF1 give you LOTs of info.

I'd hate to quote Ripley here (scene from Aliens after her return to Earth. you all know the one)

After spending 2 minutes browsing the SF2 downloads section...

SOME of us can't read or write, and have never seen a single film before obviously.

[yakarov79]

obviously.

You can.

Nope, completely illiterate. I can't even type!
