FS25 Camera follows steering angle – head tracker replacement V1.0.1.1
This mod works as a “head tracker replacement” for the interior view, with the camera following the vehicle’s steering angle. Place the mod in 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, comparable to the earlier VCA mod.
- Key or joystick assignments can be used for “A quick look” upward, downward, to the left, to the right and backward, as with the corresponding option in the previous VCA mod.
- The camera’s “seating position” can be moved up, down, left, right, forward and backward. This works similarly to a head tracker, but the position is adjusted directly within the game.
- The menu provides the following settings:
- Camera guidance enable/disable.
- Camera guidance while stationary: enable/disable, specifying whether the steering angle is also taken into account when stationary.
- Rotation sensitivity: sets the sensitivity of how the script reacts to the steering angle.
- Maximum rotation angle: determines how far the camera rotates in the corresponding direction.
- Quick look – horizontal: determines how far the “quick look” allows the camera to rotate left/right.
- Quick look – vertical: determines how far the “quick look” allows the camera to rotate up/down.
- Quick look reset speed: determines how quickly the camera returns to the steering angle after the “quick look”.
- Rotate view 180°: determines how quickly the camera rotates 180 degrees.
- Steering dead zone: sets the “dead zone” until the camera reacts to the steering input.
- Activate rear view in reverse: on/off, determines whether the camera “looks behind” as soon as reverse gear is engaged.
- Key bindings are freely assignable in the settings. No predefined ones were included deliberately, so conflicts with other active mods can be avoided.
- The camera position can also be changed through the predefined mouse wheel assignments:
- Mouse wheel up/down: camera position up/down.
- L-Shift + mouse wheel up/down: camera position forward/backward.
- L-Ctrl + mouse wheel up/down: camera position left/right.
- Testing has been carried out in both single-player and multiplayer modes.
