Car's steering wheel view incorrectly off center to one side?

R8pilot · Feb 12, 2023

Hello Forum Members,

Just in the last few days, something changed: The view and perspective of all car's steering wheels, etc., is now off center; a little to the left side. It's as if the driver's head is off a little to the right and looking a little towards the left.

It's driving me crazy. There are controls for moving the driver's viewpoint up and down in the seat, but not side to side as far as I can tell.

What is going on and how can I fix it?

Thank you.

You are on a monitor or VR? Is it the 70s F1s - their cockpits are non-symmetrical by design. If it's all the cars, then I am at a loss as to how your view has changed. maybe scroll through a few of the driving cams - helmet cam etc and see if it reorients. Failing that, a verify files couldn't hurt.

Oh! Come to think of it, they were 70's cars! I had no idea those were off-center. That must be it, and why I was so baffled. Thanks!

If you have mild OCD these cars are head wreckers. They had to accommodate the H shifter so they bulged out on the right side, The Mclaren is the worst of them, but they all do it.

Yes, whatever level of OCD I may have, that was driving me insane!

I'm still laughing at myself, as even now I'm not exactly sure I want to drive those. But 70's to 90's cars are my favorites, so maybe I'll get used to it.

Thanks.
