vino Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 I don´t know there this belongs but here it goes... Is my rear view mirror broken? Should I see my planes tail? See the picture. 1
6FG_Big_Al Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 Good question. I have problems with the mirror when I have a sea in my field of vision. Do you have the same issues ? You can make also make a report here :
ShamrockOneFive Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 Doing mirrors is very difficult for any 3D engine. They had to simplify by not rendering the aircraft model. 1

Cpt_Cool Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 You have to turn your mirror setting up to get the plane.

THERION Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) @vino In your graphic settings there are 4 options for the mirror - off, simple, medium and complex. If you select simple, you won't see anything of your plane's tail, just simple rear view. If you select medium, you will see a detailed rear view and your plane's tail. With the complex setting you will have the same as on medium, but with more details from the landscape in the rear view, which is certainly nice, but will eat quite some FPS and you don't gain any advantage upon your situational awareness - so just eye-candy in my opinion. As you can check my system below, I've not a great rig but still turned on the mirror on medium - works great! P.S.: Beside of this maybe you need to move your head a little bit...

senseispcc Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) In my game I see the tail of the plane(s) and I do not understand why others cannot see it? Maybe some graphic seeting that are not at the maximum?! Edited January 3, 2019 by senseispcc Add picture 1
THERION Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) As I already explained - it works under condition you choose at least "medium" settings for the mirror. Here are my graphic settings: Just ignore the red markings (other topic) Edited January 3, 2019 by -IRRE-Therion
E4GLEyE Posted January 12, 2019 Posted January 12, 2019 umm, ist the Spitfire MKIX's mirror supposed to "look" that much down? (similar to the one of the P47 screenshot by @senseispcc I can see my tail, and its frankly blocking all view, the MKV mirror is only blocked by the rudder, which also means, I have an easier time detecting trailing aircraft... anyone noticed this? or its a bug on my end?
=FEW=fernando11 Posted January 12, 2019 Posted January 12, 2019 What you see on the mirror depends on your head position, try moving your head front and back, or up and down, not "looking" but moving, like closer to the aiming sight. 1

Thanks! ? 1
-SF-Disarray Posted January 12, 2019 Posted January 12, 2019 The mirror looking a bit down can come in handy from time to time too. I've seen a few guys sneaking up on my low six that way.
