Newcomer / Intro Where to add the guns

Hi guys,
need a bit of help here.
I'd like to upgrade the guns on the front end of my boat.
Whenever I choose a slot, the ship is shown totally zoomed in.
I have no clue if I am up/down front/aft or Steer or port-side

How can you figure out which slot you have selected?
is there a way to zoom out for instance ?

Thanks
 
Which Ship are you in, we may be able to help on a ship by ship basis. :)

Outfitting screens are due an update in 2.1 or 1.6? depending on what version of the game you are running so it may be fixed in a month or so.
 
Hi Holeinone

I understand you pain, as do many other commanders :eek:.

We have all been there, sat wondering which gun it is[where is it][where is it].. Add in the fun fact that the drop ship, gun ship and FAS had their weapon ports swapped round(load out screen glitch) made for great fun when shooting- oh that is a pulse laser.. not a multicannon... hmmm[noob]

Like others have stated, there are planned changes for the load out section with the next latch, it is going to be a huge improvement(lets hope it is even better than the sneak peak we saw).
So for now- list your ship and we can go from there, as this will give us a great deal of information and we can thrown in some screen shots to help you out.

Basic ship 101 information:
Ships like the also the Cobra 3 are easy- top front guns(as in just under your windshield) are class 2, bottom guns are class 1(aka under your feet).
The Viper's are the other war round- small class 1 on the top, medium class 2 on the bottom, thanks to sirroco- been a long time since i have flown one...

Cobra MK4 Top guns are class 1- there are 3 of them, front guns class 2(again under the windshield).

Ships like the FDL and Python are equally as easy- the Python -Belly gun is class 3, top front class 2, top back class 3.
FDL Belly gun class 4(yes HUGE) top 4 are class 2- simples!

When you get into things like the gun ship and Anaconda it gets a bit messy with 7 guns, but by then you will know what to do- unless a friend gave you his account :p

Fly safe and learn your load out.

Actually, the Vipers have their medium hardpoints on the belly and their small hardpoints on the snout, not the other way round.
Thanks for the update- i have amended it, been a long time since i have flown the smaller ships other than the Currier(fav small beasty).
Here have some rep :cool:

Fly safe and rep on
 
Looking at the ship in the decal/paint menu can help but yes it is a pain on some ships to work it out. You can also use the de-bug camera to take a look at your own ship.
