A friend of mine owns FSX and he almost pulled his hair out because of the following, not yet solved problem:
(Sorry I have the German version of FS9, I am not sure about the English version wording, so I'm guessing the terminology)
Alright, In FS9 you can adjust the different viewing options. There's that view called "Beobachterflugzeug" (maybe "Chase plane view" in English?) In that view you can choose from three options called "Loop, Roll and Fixed" (scrolldown). Choosing "Fixed", meaning the camera would look always from the same direction onto the aircraft in focus, independent of its turn and pitch changes. Within the view you can also tick or untick "Schrittweiser Übergang" (perhaps "smooth transition" in English?). Now the friend of mine prefers exactly that view mode (Fixed), so just looking on the plane from the same direction (e.g. from South, unless you change the direction via your coolie-hat e.g.), no matter how the aircraft pitches, banks, turns and whatnot and disabled/unticked smooth transition.
Now the question, is there an equivalent viewing option like that available or even possible within FSX? We searched both quite some time, though it looks as if these options are gone completely in the latest version of FS.
Any pointers very welcome! Thank you!
