Hi, after being totally puzzled by the title I should probably explain to you what I mean. I think it was back when Peak Forest launched that on the Xbox every time you went to the head out view on the 8f and especially the Jubilee you had your head (camera) launched to either further down the cabside (8f) or in the air on the other side of the loco (Jubilee) and I just wondered if this was still and issue as I do quite fancy a drive in a kettle but don't fancy going through the effort of starting my PC up and waiting for any updates. It is clearly something that was done with the locos as it happens on Peak Forest and SoS so if it hasn't already been fixed it would be nice to have it fixed at some point within the next millennium at a minimum. Thanks!
This I (and several others) highlighted in the initial steam patch that broke it for the 8F and Jubilee. I've posted this numerous times in different threads so hopefully it can be picked up or highlighted by someone Its worth noting its just on the initial "click right stick" view and not the camera shift cycle through Video:
That's really weird, it doesn't do that on PC for the head out view. This should have been a priority fix, it's pretty important to operating the steam locos.
I think this has something to do with the "head-out" camera option for external cameras, not actually being a proper head out view. It's essentially just the external camera or "3" camera on PC but rather than being somewhere above the train by default, it defaults to the side of a train's cab. Going from that video, it's likely the camera is too close to the cab and that's causing it to freak out for a split second before being thrown above the locomotive. The proper headout cam is actually a part of the driver view cam or "1" camera view. If you cycle through the internal camera views with camera shift, the last view is the driver's cab window. You can tell because if you use camera shift again, the camera moves in a fashion of a driver pulling his head back into the cab, rather than the camera instantly flicking back to the cab viewpoint.
