In the configuration menu I don't see an option for vehicle looking, only generic looking. Using the keyboard to aim is silly since the fire control is on the mouse plus mice are more sensitive then a keyboard
How do I have the mouse control tank gun
- Thread starter bloody shadow of death
- Start date
in the mod you could use your mouse, i guess to make it more harder they changed it to the keyboard. Anyway you cant get a mouse to work with it.

what was the reason then, to make the mouse not go out of sync or enabeling your mousespeed to control how fast you can popshoot within a certain range
?

its seems more realistic to use mouse keys, instead of the ut/bf2 style, roaming tank pneis of doom.

Mouse look?

I don't know, the current setup seems completely logical to me. I can look around when I am driving (the two are seperated), I can look around when I am out of the hatch and turn the turret in whatever direction I wish...What more do you need?

i got the fire keys alternatively assigned to other keys on the keyboard. WASD moves the turret "arrow left" shoots the main gun (primary attack), "arrow right" shoots the hull MG (secoondary attack), up and down set the range (i could put more useful commands on these, since they are already on Q and E, but i just thought it was cool)

Well you mouse look when looking in the normal aiming place, but indeed when you're having fun outside the hatch that would make sense :F

The mousekeys work for me, shootingwise. but I have WASD for moving the turret. makes sense, too, cause you dont have to rething when you are out of the hatch, and need to turnthe turret. i think it works fine. and in real tanks they didn't have a mouse to turn the turret either.

Its easier and more accurate to use the keys!
Remember doing the shooting range in AA & how you'd jitter and miss when trying to hit those long range targets?
Well same principal!

To me, it is more logical to have mouse controlled gun aiming and key controlled turret aiming. In some ways this is more realistic. When aiming with a held gun it is much easier to just point and shoot; with a tank on the other hand, you have to set it up into that spot with controls in the turret. You can't just point and shoot with a tank in real life.

Agree...when you look at the traverse speed of the turrets it's more logical you use the keys, the mouse is way to fast...
