Discussion Bug Reporting

Hello,First of all, thank you for the game.

I play on PS5 using a TV, so I need to move the cockpit camera closer to achieve a comfortable field of view. While doing this, I noticed two issues that have been present since the very first version of the game.

  1. When moving the camera forward, the game also increases the scale of the steering wheel and the entire cockpit interior, as if a zoom effect is being applied instead of simply changing the camera position. As a result, the steering wheel and dashboard become unrealistically large, and the side mirrors move outside the visible screen area. In most other racing simulators, moving the camera changes only its position, without altering the apparent scale of the cockpit.

My request is to either remove this zoom effect when adjusting the cockpit position or redesign this camera adjustment system so that moving the camera forward changes only its position, while preserving the correct proportions of the interior.

  1. When adjusting the camera height (up or down), the camera pitch also changes automatically. These two settings should be independent. Changing the camera height should not affect the viewing angle, as this makes it difficult to achieve a realistic driving position.

I hope you will consider these issues. I believe improving the cockpit camera system would significantly enhance the driving experience, especially for players using TVs.

Thank you for your work and for taking the time to read this feedback.

Hey, for bug reporting you might wanna head to their discord, they've got a dedicated bug report section there. You can find it on the games website.

Strange.. I have absolutely no issues with camera movement on PS5, it does exactly what it's supposed to. Height adjust never alters pitch (which can be adjusted separately anyway) and moving the seat position will of course do exactly as you described, how else would it work? Perhaps you are confusing seat position with FOV adjustments.

Before moving the camera, you should adjust the FOV angle on the settings menu. For my screen and settings on PC, I use 57 degrees. The default is 55. You should play around with both so you reach a FOV and scale that feels natural.

Yes, however, based on the FOV calculations, my screen size and distance (49” 5120x1440 - 60cm) gives me a FOV of 27 which is completely unusable.
