Hi Folks !
A stupid Question and problem...
By accident, I moved the mouse (do not know how) and zoomed in the gunsight so much that I can't see the map on the screen.
By using the setting keys, I can only zoom in even more.
Moving away I can only return to the starting position so heavily enlarged.
What can I do to zoom out to the previous, normal starting position as before ?
I send the pictute of gunsight in present start position.
Thanks for your help
Regards
Darky

If I remember correctly the 'End' key and/or the 'Delete' key zoom in/zoom out.

Hi
Thank you Tomoose for your reply.
No , does not work.
The main problem I lost by this way the minimap from my screen
I have no idea what the combination in the mouse is to cause a zoom shift.
Any other ideas?
Thanks in advance
Darky

Try with the different FOV settings in the controls menu, darky. Click "Reset as default" if you can't solve your problem and set keys at will again.

This doesn't make much sense to me.. I just can't see it.

Thank you fo your advice, Whistler
in the meantime I did what you wrote.
This solved the zoom problem.
But I can not see the minimap.
I think the map is moved somewhere beyond the screen.
It happened during a sharp zoom in of a cabin view.
I don't know how to restore it.
Is the map position on the screen somewhere saved ?

How to determine the minimap position on the screen ?

Thank in advance

You should post your solution so others can use the info if they have similar problems.

Of course

Step 1 : On the Control menu define the keys for FOV increase/decrease
With these keys you can zoom in and out ( in the cabin and outside)
Step 2 : If you can not see the minimap :
 You have to define new map position in the config.ini, part  [game]
I just rewrote it from config.ini other version version of my game. IL 2 Sturmovik (e.g B.A.T )

At least I will change the frame of the mapPad ( Use e.g PAL minimaps) but its not so important to play.

I tested it - it works
