    Thank you, this is brilliant. I have tried other tutorials, but they don't mention the keybinds for saving views so I couldn't get it working. Thank you so much for this. Edit- In actual fact, when I reset the camera back in the config file by adding 40, it has moved all my custom views forward so they don't work!

    I’m doing this on the FlyBy wire air bus and I have no problems defining the views as described, however, when I change the Camera file back and then get into MSFS the programmed views are off. The window view ends up just outside the fuselage. (It worked fine when I tested in the edit mode)
    Any ideas ??

    Hi, just finished watching your Custom Views vid, which helped me no-end, you have a new subscriber BTW! Do you have any of your custom views bound to an alternative controller? I currently have my views bound to the NUMPAD, but would prefer to bind them to a Razer Synapse, I had used with FSX and P3Dv4, I've read my articles on this subject, but nothing to address the issue? Hope you don't mind me asking. Jim

    • @BritishAvgeek
      @BritishAvgeek  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Fantastic! Welcome onboard - I'm glad I was able to help 😃 I don't have an alternative controller now, like you I have the keybinds set for the custom views as Alt + 1 to 9 on the top of my qwerty. Would be interested to hear if you have a good way of doing it - I'm not particularly techy when it comes to working deep tech stuff out 😂

    • @BritishAvgeek

      That's unavoidable... More recently I'll set one view on each side (inside and outside just in case the walls of the aircraft lock the camera in) near the tail, then when I change the figures back to the original numbers I can then set all the rest of my custom views without too much issue

    a good habit to teach viewers is to disable the line to change after making a copy and work on the copy line after disabling the original with a semi-colon symbol.
    in this way to teach people how to disable a line / how to dicument a modification / how to roll back or trace changes.
