jmoscola2012 Posted March 8, 2007 Posted March 8, 2007 Hi Guys, For the life of me, I can't figure out the aim point for the Spad7 created by the Skunkworks. Does anyone know? Thanks in Advance, Joe Quote
Alexander51 Posted March 8, 2007 Posted March 8, 2007 Hiya Joe <S> Aim point as in: SPAD7_DATA.INI ------------------ .............. .............. .............. [MachineGun] SystemType=FIXED_GUN GunTypeName=303CAL_VICKERS_MK1 InputName=FIRE_PRIMARY_GUN MuzzlePosition=0.0941,0.7554,0.5072 AimAngles=0.0,0.0,0.0 <---------- ------------ -------- (?) MaxAmmo=380 EjectShells=TRUE EjectPosition=0.15,-0.1,0.55 EjectVelocity=0.5,0.0,0.3 MinExtentPosition=0.0,0.75, 0.45 MaxExtentPosition=0.2,0.0, 0.55 GunFireAnimationID=4 Quote
+peter01 Posted March 8, 2007 Posted March 8, 2007 Mine is this: AimAngles=4.5,-5.50,0.0 Big move. Couldn't hit anything before. Of course if you mod the AimAngle it will be off centre if you fly in No Cockpit Mode (with just sight). Cheers Quote
+Tailspin Posted March 8, 2007 Posted March 8, 2007 In lieu of changing the aimpoint I've been using the Snap view down button on my stick. Simulates the pilot having to lower his head to see under the wing. I've no idea what the view was actually like. Was the wing really that low...or the pilot seat that high? Quote

Now the tracers go right down the sight......................... Quote

Recon3 Posted March 11, 2007 Posted March 11, 2007 Hi, Are you guys simply changing the direction the bullets travel? ...or does this lower the pilot's head? In the past I made a change in one of Bort's Fokkers....(the DII, I think) Below is a similar procedure I did for the Spad VII (inside SPAD7_Cockpit.ini) but it seems to have lowered the whole cockpit, bringing with it the pilot's angle of view over the cowl. [CockpitSeat001] ModelName=Spad_pit-R0c.LOD HideExternalNodeName=cockpit OpenCockpit=TRUE ExternalClipDistMin=0.04 Position=0.0000,-0.7213,0.6074 <-----------I changed '0.6074' from the original '0.7674' Offset=0.0,0.03,0.18 ViewAngles=0.0,0.0,0.0 Not sure if it was the correct thing to manipulate however, but it worked. BTW, I played around with numbers for the ViewAngles but it didn't seem to have any effect. cheers, Recon3 Quote
