Wing clip fix

Postby Robert » Fri Dec 04, 2015 10:12 pm

Hey guys, the FSX Blue Angels have a camera.cfg file that eliminates clipping and head position movements from inertial changes:

http://www.fsxblueangels.com/wing%20cli ... plate.html

They have a couple of images to show the effect at that page.

I've looked through it and all I can find different is this line added to the virtual cockpit definition. I just added this line and get great clipping and still get the head movement (which I wanted to keep):

ClipMode = Minimum

Note the spaces between the words and the equals sign.

On Win10 and FSX:SE the file you want to modify is here: C:\Users\<your user name>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX\Cameras.CFG

Here is my full virtual cockpit camera definition (second one in the file) but I'd just copy in the ClipMode line:

[CameraDefinition.001]
Title = Virtual Cockpit
Guid = {xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx} (not my real GUID but I didn't want anyone copying mine in and messing up their installation)
Description = This is the description of the cockpit view
Origin = Cockpit
ShowPanel = Yes
SnapPbhAdjust = Ordinal
SnapPbhReturn = True
PanPbhAdjust = Ordinal
PanPbhReturn = True
Track = None
ShowAxis = FrontOnly
AllowZoom = TRUE
InitialZoom = 1.0
SmoothZoomTime = 2.0
ShowWeather = Yes
XyzAdjust = TRUE
ShowLensFlare=FALSE
Category = Cockpit
ClipMode = Minimum
HotKeySelect=2

Just wanted to point out I wrote this wrong by pointing to the cockpit camera stanza instead of the vrirtual cockpit stanza.

I corrected the post above to say it correctly. But since there are both cockpit and virtual cockpit stanzas, I wanted to point out the mistake.

It makes a huge difference. Anyone wanting to fly multiplayer will want to add Clipmode to the virtual cockpit stanza in cameras.cfg.
