    Seat adjustment range is quite limited. I like to use a high POV (54°) with my single monitor setup, but it still helps my immersion if I can adjust the seat forward enough that it feels nice.

    Is there a way to circumvent the current limit of 100 units? Editing the .plr file did not work for me, as it resets the seat to the max of -0.10000 upon loading a car.

    You need to edit carname_cockpitinfo.ini, at first row Eyepoint. File is in vehicles/carname.

    I have exactly the same issue although my POV = 50 but same issue. Would be great if seat adjustment was infinite or enough to handle higher FOVs.

    Regarding the .ini edit, will that cause mismatches?

    So far I've only edited Metalmoro's cockpit ini but not raced with it online, so no clue about mismatches.

    Does someone know how to adjust the pitch? Very important to get the correct position. Thanks

    Carname_cams.cam file -> localcam=cockpit -> orientationoffset=(0.0, 0.0, 0,0), first number is pitch, negative value for pitch down and positive up.
