Question NCC-1701_E Entreprise

[matmat57]

I finallt got this working and have a question. I can't zoom in on the ship very much. After zooming in as far as possible it still looks like it is far away. I have a 19" monitor and resolution set to 1280X1024 and the ship is about 1 1/2 inches long when zoomed in all the way. Is this normal or is there a way to get a closer look?

And what is the distance to the focus vessel?

Doh! I will have to check that this evening. It never occured to me to look! Also does anyone know if you can fly the shuttles in the docking bay? For that matter how do you get in one? I tried looking for docs for this addon but couldn't find any. Sorry but I'm a noob please bear with me. In my defense though like I said I did look for the docs! Thanks

F3 allows you to switch focus to another vessel. Then Ctrl D to undock.

F3 only allows me to select differant camera positions on the Enterprise. In the main view I set the FOV to 10 degrees and zoom all the way in and the distance is 30.54k.

Set FOV to 50, use the scroll wheel to zoom in a lot closer.

Ok got the view thing sorted out but still can't get in a shuttle?

It doesn't have different camera positions. F3 pulls up a menu with the folowing:

NCC-1701-E_Enterprise
NCC-1701-E-1
NCC-1701-E-2
NCC-1701-E-3
NCC-1701-E-4

The bottom four are the shuttles. Switch focus into one, press Ctrl D to undock.
