K-14 Acemaker gunsight

NOT

Bf-109 K-14

I am trying to get some help here please do not hijack this thread with that silliness.

Was referring to this:

Wait a minute, my DBW doesn't have a K-14

I was merely speculating that there may be a misunderstanding in whether the conversation is about the K-14 gunsight, or the gunsight in Bf-109 K-14.

I don't know if DBW has the Bf-109 K-14, but I believe even the retail game has the K-14 gunsight in the P-51D-20NA, so I made the only conclusion I could. No silliness was intended.


Regardless I personally think having the centre dot there is useful, albeit probably not historically correct. I can't use the gyro sight alone, the movement is too sensitive to small changes in direction and it's too clumsy to adjust the distance to target continuously, so I use it as a rangefinder and lead guideline rather than relying on it alone. And in that purpose, when you have the small cross in the middle, it works better than having the static gunsight rendered entirely.

Just my personal opinion.

My sincere apologies then ... for me it is a distraction .. when I want the fixed sight then I set it for gyro & fixed..

In game it was not modeled originally.

Bearcat please be a bit humble when you ask for help, The answer was to clear up a misunderstanding. It is not like you own this topic.
You shall anyhow not compare gunsight in stock game with the modded ones. It can just aswell be something a modder have put into it.
