      Having panned around in 2d cockpit view, pressing the 2 key no longer resets to forward view.

      Additionally, if having panned around in 2d view, one then selects a different view (padlock, external etc.), pressing the 2 key goes back to the 2d view with the initial pan intact (rather than resetting to the forward view).

        Oh man…get track ir if you don’t have it. I haven’t seen a 2d pit in like…ages. Perhaps the answer lies under the controls section under views? Things changed in this update and I had to make some adjustment.

          What happens if you select the 3 key and then the 2 key. Like redshirt, I personally have never used the 2D pit.

            I’ve never really got on with TrackIR - I like being able to lean back in my chair etc, and don’t like having to press a recenter button. That said I haven’t tried a recent version.

            Unfortunately there doesn’t seem to be a setting under views.

            AFAIK the current 2d view is actually just the 3d view but with step panning instead of smooth. I imagine the reset function got removed when the key was recoded to be a 3d view (4.32?).

              It puts you back in the 2d view, but at the position last panned to 😞

              Currently the only way to recenter it is to manually pan back to the front.

                Have a look at the BMS Manual if you haven’t already. There is a whole chapter dedicated to views and if view controls.

                More recent versions of TrackIR are significantly improved over the earlier models by the way.

                  Unfortunately I don’t think the manual mentions this function. I suspect it’s pretty much got forgotten about due to many people using TrackIR. Will check out the newer TrackIRs on youtube, though not convinced it’s for me…
