    Just remember what ol' Jack Burton does when the earth quakes, and the poison arrows fall from the sky, and the pillars of Heaven shake. Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big ol' storm right square in the eye and he says, "Give me your best shot, pal. I can take it"

    I never have that problem, but then again, I'm on sat, so my slaves are always behind me.

    can you move your main slightly forward, and then hit follow?

    I see you useing ISBoxer? I dont seem to have a problem with it. I know they are there, whether im riding a horse, or running, or flying... I use max zoomable angle anyway. Dunno, its never really bothered me. I kinda like knowing I can see if one drops formation, or also, I like knowing that I am a flyinb "V" coming to kill you!!

    Make sure you have your interface settings for max zoom out distance.

    Increased camera distance + I always pull my camera up so I'm looking from above my leader, so the slaves are below me sort of.

    I ditched my bronze drakes for smaller mounts like flying carpets, headless horseman's mount, flight form, and the standard wind rider. This helped when they would cover up quest givers as well.

    Increasing the camera view distance helped as we.

    I have this issue when I fly too.
    My camera distance is maxed, and you will still have wings flapping and such.
    Rather annoying.

    I will double mouse button fly the main toon, until the team is pointed correctly.
    Slaves on auto follow.
    Once the direction is correct, I NumLock for auto run.
    Then hold the Left button down, and change my camera angle slightly so I am looking down at my toon at a 30-45 degree angle.

    That way, the slaves don't occupy my entire window with wings, etc.

    I really never ever had this problem. I always play on max camera distance though. And i ride 4 proto drakes, who are somewhat smaller aswell. Don't recall it when having 4 bronze dragons either though.

    Positioning your slaves to avoid flapping wings??? ---> wtf?
