issue help? View is extremly high in every car

Hello, first day of playing the game (xbox one). I am finding in every cars cockpit and dash cam that I am setting extremely high in the car. Much higher than anything that would be reasonable. So high that with FOV set to 50 in the dash cam the windshield actually seems to stretch to become taller to make up for the view so high in the car. Giving the effect of the dash and wheel being much lower than my lap would be. Most noticeable in the 488 gt3 car. To give you a idea of how high the view is I can actually see over the top of the car in front of me. I cant help but think I'm over looking a option setting somewhere because this cant be by design. Like I said, I can actually see over the top of the car in front of me in cockpit view and dash cam from setting so high in the car. Thanks

 

As I said before, it's a great game but it's missing a lot of configuration to play, they should stop a bit of making cars and fixing the game for the consoles

 

Now you have most of the cars/tracks we have over on the PC side. I expect there will be a little more attention given to the settings/GUI side of things. I'm sure Kunos will do what they can to give you as much as possible, give them time.

 

..I cant find any view setting in the game other than a simple 10 degrees FOV slider. Nothing to even come close to fixing this. These views cant be working as intended on most of the cars. Like I said, I can see over the car I am following. In dash cam with the reasonable lowest number of 50 FOV, the windshield height becomes much taller like its compensating for the view being so high. I have also notice that the cars that this issue hurts the most also have a unusual extra small looking steering wheel. Every cars driving view is so high, its to unreal. In dash cam and cockpit cam.

 

.... I'm alittle late to the ball game and new to the forum. To be honest I know nothing about this game but have a decent understanding to be patient and let games like this go thur its different versions and update fixes as they are released over time. on a good note the game has some of the best sounds I have ever heard

 

Can you upload a photo?

 

a photo of the view? I will try to figure out how to upload a xbox screen shot screen shot a little later today.

 

Upload a screen shot off Xbox. If you have a tablet or phone just use smart glass. Go to screenshots and save image. Then just upload on here.

 

ok, this is what I managed to get sorry about the it being alittle dark. See how extremely high I'm setting in the car? Not that rear view camera looks like its level with my stomach This one shows alittle better with the car in front alittle closer. I'm setting so high up I'm looking down on the car in front. I'm so high I can actually see over the top of the car in front rear wing and even see over the complete top of his car.

 

Dependind on your TV diameter you have to position your driver's seat accordingly.. there''s nothing wrog with FOV in cockpit view.. let me give you an example of correct eye/ driving wheel/dashboard FOV : my tv screen is 50" wide. I am racing with a playseat racing chair, and a thrustmaster TX racing wheel. I placed the tv on 35" tall tv stand from the ground having my gaaming chair set 75 " away from the tv screen. So, this way my eye line of sight, the top side of my racing rim, & the car's dashboard ahead on the tv screen come to an almost equal level as in real-life cars.. For example, think in your picture, a rim to be placed right infront of the cockpit instruments, slightly going over the dashboard instruments as in real life.. Its perfect this way, and try to position your driving seat like mine.

 

I don't know. The view seems pretty good to me. Check out a video uploaded by Pasin Lathouras titled AF Corse Ferrari 458 GT3 - GT Asia Series 2013 Rd5, Zhuhai Circut. The camera looks to me to be about dash level whereas a driver's head would be much higher, very close to the roof line on these low cars. I don't know if links will work here.


However, 1.14 states, "It will be possible to adjust and customize the cockpit view during a game session."

 

It's true that view is bit too high in many cars. Only solution for this, is same kind of view adjustment possibilities as there is in pc-version; forward/backward, up/down, fov. There is
absolutely any reason to not have these in console-versions. Very short sighted from developers.
