One of the Beaufighters has a trainable observers view ; I can't recalloffhand which one.
I'll have a look and get back to you.

Hey WXTech

Just installed and activated this Mod in  UP Cassie , and I am not seeing any change regarding
an adding of an observer position.
Allow me to try to clarify what I am after.
I want to have a new camera position in the Mossie Cockpit in the position where the Observer's head would be.
In a perfect world it would be pan/tilt/zoom capable.
Ideally you would shift to it when you hit the Key Control you have selected for Pilot/Gunner Position.
Then from that position( Gunner ) in any Bomber ( MkIVB , MKXVI ) version of the aircraft , if you hit
the Shift F1 you would enter the bombsight view and controls ; in FB and NF variants you would enter the radar station ,
or if there is no radar station in that variant , there would be no resultant move.

Apologies if my request was not clear and concise.

Sorry I forgot this was the BAT Lounge.
I have now tested in all Mossies ( Including the MkXVIII TseTse ) both in BAT and UP Cassie and did
not have a noticeable effect.
I unzipped the file , placed in my jsgme mods foolder , enabled the mod , and started my game(s).
Please let me know if my procedure is not correct.
Thanks for your really quick responses to rather erudite ideas.

You should be shifting the POV to the right side when hitting the gunsight view key. For 'pits having a gun sight, no shift to the observer position occurs.

Do you have any other Mossie mod sharing the same cockpit folder? If so you could copy these files to your existing mod folder, backing up the replaced files, naturally.

As I noted before, making a proper observer position would require effectively making its own cockpit folder and creating a Java class.
