K-14 Gunsight Bug
« on: March 04, 2012, 02:47:35 PM »

Is there a fix for this?



This has been bugging me for a while .. I just kept ignoring it .. but I was flying stock one day and realized that it wasn't in the stock version so it must be mod related.. I heard about a fix for this does anyone know where I can get it?

That + should not be there. That is in gyro sight only mode.. but it is very distracting to me because it is located right in the center of the sight. If you are on the ground and you are using the conventional sight that + is right in the center where the dot is but the dot is superimposed on top of it.. all you can see if you look are the 4 points of the + sticking out from behind the dot ... but when I go to gyro mode this is what I see once I move the dot of the pipper from the center.

I checked my game and if the plane is trimmed well the "X" will center its self.
If its in the position that you show in the picture it means your nosed up.
If your nose down the "X"  will move above the center spot.
This is how mine works.

I think it's supposed to be there.

It gives you a line that you can use to align the little cross, the target, and the gyro reticle, in case the gyro reticle happens to be set at longer or shorter distance than where the target is, and you don't have the time to reset the range.

No that is not supposed to be there .. here is a picture of the stock K-14 sight in gyro mode ..



and from the P-47 manual on the K-14:


Note steps 4,5.6 & 7. That + is not supposed to be there.. it only appears on mod planes .. that's why I posted here, AAS  and at 242 concerning this. Now on the actual K-14 sight they had the ability to make the fixed ring disappear (see #7) so that what we have now is what you would see if the fixed ring were dimmed and you selected fixed & gyro but the gyro only option should have nothing else but the diamonds and the floating dot..

It's only on certain planes .. some Spits, Mustangs & P-47s, P-80 and a few more Britisn planes I think.. but that is from a Mustang.

heeey, easy there... you expect a lot.
not everyone know instantly that "K-14 Gun-sight" refers to the Mustang Gun-sight.
there are Blue fliers on here, too?
and looking through this, before solowingpixy got confused , there was no way to tell for a non-mustang-specialist that the topic is related to the American gunsight only.
