I don't want it to be able to zoom in. What is wrong or is it hardcoded?

[edc 0]

Just a guess, but maybe change

</span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">optics=1;<span id='postcolor'>

to

</span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">optics=0;<span id='postcolor'>

nope that will just remove the "press v and get diffrent sight" function. I want that, but not the zoom.

maybe put these on 0?

add something like this to the vehicle defns.

class ViewOptics: ViewOpticsBase

{

initAngleX=0; minAngleX=-30; maxAngleX=+30;

initAngleY=0; minAngleY=-100; maxAngleY=+100;

initFov=0.35; minFov=0.35; maxFov=0.35;

};

thanks there stt. worked perfect

I'm trying to get the Stryker ICV M2 to have an optical zoom of 8x, so far all I've gotten is about 4x.

I tried setting the minFov=0.35 to about minFov=0.02 and then tried minFov=0.01 because I wanted more zoom but there was no difference between the last two or minFov=0.005.

I seem to have run into some sort of hard limit here. Anyone know why I'm having trouble or how I can get a small Fov on the Stryker ICV M2 optic?

Quote[/b] ]opticsZoomMin=0.35;

opticsZoomMax=0.35;

distanceZoomMin=0.35;

distanceZoomMax=0.35;

This is the problem. With opticsZoom min and max set the same you have no zoom.

*edit{Depending upon number used, you may have zoom, but with min and max the same it's not a variable zoom}

Examples from sniper rifles.

{G22}

opticsZoomMin=0.02;

opticsZoomMax=0.05;

{L96-A1}

opticsZoomMin=0.02;

opticsZoomMax=0.1;

distanceZoomMin=400;

distanceZoomMax=400;

DistanceZoom is not required, opticsZoom will do the job. Play with the numbers til you get the disired zoom effect.
