LHD and RHD FOV Difference
Why is the Left Hand Drive FOV further back than the Right Hand Drive FOV when they are both the same degrees?

The FOV in the below screenshots are both 115, but the left hand drive one is further back.

Odd.

Sorry if its been mentioned...

Somebody used the female driver model? The female model sits more upright than the male one, but never thought it would be that much of a difference... :eek:
They just have their view set up differently.

When you spectate or watch a replay, it uses YOUR view settings, the only Client settings that still 'live' if you will, are Skins and Setups and Their individual settings, such as Throttle Blip, and LHD or RHD.

This is funny, because i started to speak Norwegian and the guy i was talking to didn't believe me, he said i couldn't possibly be English because i use LHD

So is it more to the driver model, more than left or right hand drive?

Could also be affected by g-forces...
Not that much...Not in my settings anyway.

Yep, just tested it with some AI's, and it's definitely down to the driver model...

Interestingly though, it's the male driver model that is more upright, I remembered that wrong...

Feel free to test it yourself...
I use the right hand drive "view" so what you see in the right hand drive pic is what I would see.
I sometimes see FOV differences between different cars in replays. Even ones using the same side of drive.
Here's an example. Excuse the lack of AA etc.
It's the same all over the track btw, not a result of head movement or anything like that. Both were using in-car view. Odd.

Sinbad its like bbman says, Its about the driver model , women and male, they have a different views due to the eye position. try changing driver models , take a screen shot and compare the views.
