    Hi everyone.
    All my cockpit settings have been altered and I'm too far from the dashboard, but unfortunately the
    cockpit configuration setting won't allow me to adjust the view in any direction. I deleted the mods that were installed and did a file validation but it didn't help. Everything was normal yesterday.
    It;s undriveable the way it is and as AMS2 is the only sim I use I really need some help. Thanks in advance.

    Hi,

    Sorry to hear you’re experiencing issues with the cockpit configuration and/or camera settings. You wrote that you're too far from the dashboard, which suggests you’re in the wrong camera mode.

    Here are some steps to try:

    1. Change Camera Mode: Bind a button to cycle through camera modes until you find the preferred/correct one.
    2. Check FOV Settings: Go to Options > Camera and verify your Field of View (FOV) settings.
    3. Reset Configuration: As a last resort, back up your AMS2 folder in My Documents, delete the original, and restart the game. This will reset everything to default, and you can reconfigure your settings. Then go on track and see if your issue is fixed.
    I suspect the issue is likely due to an incorrect camera mode.

    Feel free to follow up if you need more help or clarification!

    Marius

    Hi Marius, thanks for the quick reply.
    You were spot on it was the camera mode. Thought I had checked it but obviously not. Must have had one of those senior moments. I'm 86 and have quite a few of them.

    Happy to help, and I wish you a lot of racing. Don't feel too bad; even I have my moments where I question what I'm doing, ha! Like the time I threw cinnamon in my dish I was cooking thinking it was cayenne pepper.
