Hey all,
An odd thing that XP doesnt have that FS has had for years, is the zoom in/zoom out ability. In FS, you can zoom way out and see all of the cockpit, and zoom in to just a single gauge.
In XP, you move up and down, left and right, but arent able to zoom out. I found out at first, that I could pan sideways and move 'sideways' which moved my position backwards from the panel. Later, I found a way to hard wire a way to move forward and back and wired it into the keyboard Num-9 and Num-3 keys. I could then move back and fourth in the VC with the effect of zooming out.
If only there was a way to zoom out, instead of moving backwards. At least this fix helps out with some realism in the VC 'virtual' realism.
