Hunter first person postion is too low

[tortuosit 486]

Hi guys,

does anyone drive the Hunter in 1st person mode? I would really like to, immersion you know, but it feels like the character is sitting too low. I can't see a s**t, what do you think? It's almost impossible without hitting rocks I think. I can only drive 3rd person with it...

Hmmm. Thoughts?

I drive mostly in 1st, in pretty much all vehicles.

It takes a lot of practice to drive, but you are indeed right when you say "i cant see ****" :)

Sometimes its a huge problem, other times its of no concern to me, i truly depends on the situation.

If arma 3 had full DOF working - then you could just adjust "head" camera like you want

You can press ctrl+e\q to "roll" the camera inside vehicles, would be interesting if you could go ctrl+w\s to "adjust your seat" and actually change your view position (not fov) like many race sims does.

Doable? Ticket?

Agreed although - settings to move a seat forward or backward could work even better

What does Depth of Field have to do with moving the camera in a car?

Degrees of Freedom.

I think he means POV :)

Thanks Smurf!

Yea POV works too :)

Well, if you're looking for immersion and realism, it's there. M-ATVs (the hunters real counterpart) have a horrible field of view and take a lot of getting used to.

Though all the M-ATVs I've driven had spotting mirrors on the hood that help out a lot.

Guys, now I need your help, I am on the DEV build. I have assigned:

- w: slow speed

- shift+w: normal speed

- ctrl+w: turbo

But when I press ctrl+w my character inside the vehicle looks down strangely. I cannot look forward any more and the only solution I found is to re-enter the vehicle. Happened to me in a HEMTT. I didn't find a keyboard shortcut for this view... What is it?

RH means degrees of freedom.

I agree, all vehicles (not just helicopters) need 6DOF enabled.

Everybody on the floor now, it's the thread hijacker!

BTT: From this picture the FOV doesn't seem too bad for the driver, so I guess a tat more view for the driver would be acceptable. I find it really hard to follow roads, especially when you are driving up a road with slope, even if it's just a really small amount.

Well not sure how good can driver see inside of it - http://www.defense.gov/dodcmsshare/homepagephoto/2013-03/hires_130323-M-KS710-006c.jpg

Definitely better than in ArmAs Hunter.

[13islucky 10]

Yeah, more or less.

[instagoat 133]

I don't know why people complain about the Hunter. It is fine, all we need is 6DOF. You can't see shit out of these vehicles in real life either, what makes a difference is that irl you can move your head around.
