Aldis Sight Parameters

[Mike Dora]

Does anyone know how to change the "magnification" factor for the SE5a's Aldis sight?

 

With its slight magnification of the target view, I find it a bit difficult to use, and in any case this is unrealistic. Contrary to common belief, the Aldis was not a telescopic sight, it was a collimating sight with a "magnification" factor of 1:1.

 

Thanks

Hi Mike. I think you are looking for the SE5 AVIONICS.INI. Its located in the Objectdata.cat. Change the camera FOV. IIRC something around 16.0 works well. Of course you can fine tune it to suit yourself.

Is there any way to get rid of the Aldis altogether?

Thanks TS, I've set the FOV to 27, which seems to give about a 1:1 image. _Now_ at last I can shoot stuff down with an SE!
