FS25 Camera follows steering angle – head tracker replacement V1.0.0.7
This mod serves as a “head tracker replacement” by making the camera follow the vehicle’s steering angle while using the interior view.
Copy the mod into your mods folder, then activate it in your save game.
Features
- In the interior view, the viewing angle is controlled according to the steering angle, similar to the previous VCA mod.
- “A quick look”: key or joystick assignments let you look up, down, left, right and backward, as with the corresponding option in the previous VCA mod.
- The camera’s “seating position” can be adjusted up, down, left, right, forward and backward. This works similarly to a head tracker, but the adjustment is performed directly in the game.
The menu provides the following settings:
- Camera guidance enable/disable.
- Camera guidance while stationary: enable/disable, with the option to specify whether the steering angle is also considered while stationary.
- Rotation sensitivity: controls how sensitively the script responds to the steering angle.
- Maximum rotation angle: specifies how far the camera turns in the relevant direction.
- Quick look – horizontal: specifies how far the camera can turn left and right with the “quick look”.
- Quick look – vertical: specifies how far the camera can turn up and down with the “quick look”.
- Quick look reset speed: controls how quickly the camera returns to the steering angle after using the “quick look”.
- Rotate view 180°: controls how quickly the camera turns through 180 degrees.
- Steering dead zone: defines the “dead zone” before the camera responds to steering input.
- Activate rear view in reverse: on/off, specifies whether the camera “looks behind” immediately after reverse gear is engaged.
Key bindings can be assigned freely in the settings. Predefined bindings were deliberately not used in order to avoid conflicts with other active mods.
The camera position can be changed separately. These key assignments are predefined and use the mouse wheel:
- Mouse wheel up/down: moves the camera position up/down.
- L-Shift + mouse wheel up/down: moves the camera position forward/backward.
- L-Ctrl + mouse wheel up/down: moves the camera position left/right.
The mod has been tested in both single-player and multiplayer modes.
