Jim,
I'm new to MSTS but learning quickly ... In your AG4 template for the default Marias Pass route you somehow managed to extend the range of motion of the 2-key and 3-key external views. How can I confer this blessing on other routes? (I don't think it's related to the flying yardcam issue, I've already researched that one to death.) thx, Mike McCarthy P.S. Thanks for making that template and so many others. AG4 is what got me involved with MSTS. Otherwise I'd still be using TrainPlayer/TrackLayer for shunting/switching, which is my main interest. |

Mike,
Glad you are enjoying all the templates. I don't recall adding anything extra for any extended views for #2 or #3. If you have MSTS Bin installed, you can take advantage of the extended view for those two views by using Ctr-Shift-9. Switch to view #2 or #3 and then use the key combination I listed. That will give you an extended view. Jim |

Thanks for the lead. |

Update for the benefit of future readers of this thread ... Jim was more right than he knew. It turns out that things weren't working for me because when I earlier tried Jim's suggestion I had been running a copy of a backup that somehow happened not have BIN installed. When I reinstalled BIN to a virgin updated MSTS as a clean test case, the 2-key/3-key long camera zoom feature began working automatically. It wasn't even necessary to do Ctl+Shf+9 to wake up the feature. Thanks, Jim! |
