Camera Controls Documentation?

[SCG_Limboski]

Is there any documentation available related to how the camera control options work in the settings menu?  What are the different camera modes (snap versus pan versus centered quick, etc.) and what are movement speed, rotation speed, and FOV change speed settings and what are the inertia sliders for these???  What does the general smoothness slider do?  I'm trying to slide the different sliders to different positions but I'm not always seeing an effect nor do I understand where I might see it.  Complete lack of official documentation for this game is my number one frustration thus far (e.g., what complex engine settings go with different aircraft).

 

Also, I use Track IR and I was wondering if any of the camera settings influence its function.  One problem I'm having is that my vertical head movement is too insensitive and I was wondering if I can adjust this in game versus changing my Track IR profile.  Maybe my Track IR completely nullifies many (or all) of the camera functions?

I have a video which should help get you started, but it doesn't cover all the options in the camera menu. The latest Rise of Flight manual should be able to explain it for now until the BoS manual comes out.

Thanks for the video and the tip.  Here is the relevant info from the Rise of Flight manual:

 

-  Cockpit.  (Figure  3.5)  There  are  several  settings  that  affect  how  the  in-cockpit  camera 

behaves and you can change these settings to best match your personal preferences.  There 

are two major types of cockpit view modes  - Snap and Pan. Snap View means the camera 

instantly snaps to the position you with to see and Pan View means the camera rotates to the 

position you wish to see. Each view mode has several settings that can be changed. They are 

Movement  Speed,  Movement  Inertia,  FOV  Change  Speed,  FOV  Change  Inertia,  Rotation 

Speed and Rotation Inertia. Adjust each setting to the one you like. These settings are meant 

to be used in conjunction with a Hat Switch or Key Presses. These settings do not interact 

with the mouse look or if you are using a TrackIR. 

 

- Cockpit View Smoothing. This setting smooths out the camera as it swings around in the 

cockpit. This can help with mouse look or TrackIR usage. The higher the smoothing setting 

the more sluggish the camera can seem.
