DOCUMENT:Q213412 07-MAY-2002 [homegame] TITLE :CFS: Map Orientation Is Fixed to the North at High Altitudes PRODUCT :Microsoft Home Games PROD/VER:WINDOWS:1.0 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:kbui fsim kbimu msgame ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator: WWII Europe Series, version 1.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== When you fly at high altitudes in Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator, the aircraft map orientation may be fixed to the north. RESOLUTION ========== To resolve this issue, slew at lower altitudes. NOTE: When you zoom the map view so that you can see the world globe, you slew at a very high speed. When you slew at a very high speed over long distances, it may be difficult to slew in the direction that you want when the map orientation is fixed to the north. STATUS ====== Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator: WWII Europe Series, version 1.0. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post more information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base when it becomes available.
