Can't look around

#1 Post by MikkelSmikkel » 21 May 2017 19:59

I've assigned 'look left' and 'look right' to my G27's shifter paddle's. The problem is that it doesn't work in interior view. It does, however, turn when I press it in exterior view. Any suggestions? :P

There are different keys to looking from interior & exterior. Look at the list again, you notice Interior look left/right. You could edit Controls.sii & double function those assigned keys on your paddle.

Now lets see if i can get this right, i wont use code as it will just confuse me.

config_lines[124]: "mix lookleft `<your chosen key>`"
config_lines[125]: "mix lookright `<your chosen key>`"

Copy <your chosen key> into <your chosen key> below

this is Interior look left
config_lines[139]: "mix lookpos4 `<your chosen key>`"

this is Interior look right
config_lines[140]: "mix lookpos5 `<your chosen key>`"

It should work, be sure to make a backup of your Controls.sii.

Hmmm, just found out I can't use my mouse to turn the camera in interior view while I can in exterior view... Guess it hasn't got anything to do with the key bindings...

So you use a mouse & wheel at the same time, that's gotta be awkward.

Well, I never use those at the same time when driving. The thing is that suddenly I'm not able to move the interior camera. Not with the mouse, nor with assigned keys.

This can happen if you install a TrackIR compatible application which reports that headtracking is active.

Alright, that explains a lot. But how do I turn the 'active headtracking' off?
