The online racing simulator
Urgent Controller feature request
Hello,

I got myself the Logitech Driving Force Pro.
It features an eight way switch for the view.
The forward-left and forward-right views would be very useful in LFS
to avoid collisions with lateral driving cars.
Looking sideways by 90° is too much since I loose orientation of what is going on in front of me.
The continuous motion feature is a poor replacement it only makes me dizzy and is hard to get used to.

So, please implement at least the two forward diagonal views!

My guess is this isn't going to be a five minute job to impliment
At least we have now 90 degrees left/right looking view. Not like almost all the other sims that have totally useless 45 degree views.

Hi Thomas. Keep practicing with the 90° view, although it makes you swerve or lose your timing at first, you really do get used to it after a while. Like anything, practice and familiarity will make this action second nature for you. Keep trying mate.
Definitely get use to the instant 90 degree look. It was disorienting for me too when I started using it. At first it was 'look...ok, he's over there...coming past me...oop, stay over there, I'm here, don't run into me....ok, he slowed and I'm by...look ahead again...AAARRRGGGGG WAALLLLL!!!' Now it is more like this for me, 'Boom, look, boom, looking ahead!' and I recieve and processed all the same information it took me at first looking for a while "studying" the view, now in a spit second. It just all becomes automatic after a while.

Ok, thanks, I will do that until the views are implemented.
