Wrench 9,845 Posted May 13, 2008 Info provided by Crusader: Note: some of the Fitter's may have this fix already applied; check you data ini anyway, it only takes a few seconds to double check!!! Fix for External View Zoom Issue: Open the data ini for any of the swing-wing Fitters; Su-17, 20 and 22s, and scroll down to the sections indicated. What your looking for, as shown below is a comma (,) where it should be a period, or decimal point (.) [LeftOuterWing] ParentComponentName=LeftWing ... MinExtentPosition=-2.75,-8.61, 0.45 MaxExtentPosition=-4,59,-3.67, 0.63 <------ typo here, comma instead of a dot ... SystemName[004]=LeftSlat [RightOuterWing] ParentComponentName=RightWing ... MinExtentPosition= 2.75,-8.61, 0.45 MaxExtentPosition= 4,59,-3.67, 0.63 <------ typo here, comma instead of a dot ... SystemName[004]=RightSlat Just replace the comma with the decimal point/period, save and close. That should eliminate the "can't zoom in close" on the external views. The edited lines should look like this, left side shown: MaxExtentPosition= 4.59,-3.67, 0.63 For the RightSide: MaxExtentPosition=-4.59,-3.67, 0.63 Fix for the Bouncy, Jiggly Dancing Aircraft: The data to be adjusted is shown in the BOLD text NoseGear] SystemType=LANDING_GEAR Retractable=TRUE DeployTime=5.0 AnimationID=1 DragArea=0.25 HideGearNode=TRUE ModelNodeName=front_top_strut InsideNodeName=gear_bay_front ShockAnimationID=4 ShockNodeName=front_damper ShockStroke=0.25 SpringFactor=1.5 DampingFactor=1.0 WheelNodeName=front_wheel RollingRadius=0.330 CastoringWheel=TRUE CastoringNodeName=front_bottom_strut Steerable=TRUE MaxSteeringSpeed=41.15 Locking=FALSE MaxSteeringAngle=45.0 InputName=YAW_CONTROL ControlRate=1.0 HasBrakes=FALSE RollingCoefficient=0.05 MaxDeploySpeed=128.61 [LeftMainGear] SystemType=LANDING_GEAR Retractable=TRUE DeployTime=5.0 AnimationID=1 DragArea=0.50 HideGearNode=TRUE ModelNodeName=left_gear_strut InsideNodeName=gear_bay_left ShockAnimationID=5 ShockStroke=0.2 SpringFactor=1.0 DampingFactor=3.0 WheelNodeName=wheel_left RollingRadius=0.405 CastoringWheel=FALSE HasBrakes=TRUE BrakingCoefficient=0.75 RollingCoefficient=0.05 MaxDeploySpeed=128.61 [RightMainGear] SystemType=LANDING_GEAR Retractable=TRUE DeployTime=5.0 AnimationID=1 DragArea=0.50 HideGearNode=TRUE ModelNodeName=right_gear_strut InsideNodeName=gear_bay_right ShockAnimationID=6 ShockStroke=0.2 SpringFactor=1.0 DampingFactor=3.0 WheelNodeName=wheel_right RollingRadius=0.405 CastoringWheel=FALSE HasBrakes=TRUE BrakingCoefficient=0.75 RollingCoefficient=0.05 MaxDeploySpeed=128.61 With thanks to Crusader for digging this out of his archives when I asked for it!! And to Column5 (and again Crusader) for having it somewheres to be found. Wrench kevin stein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
