I ran into an issue though, unable to look around (with mouse or keybinds) in cabin view, I am using the Driver Adjustments mod with the required cfg changes

@Icy687 - I'm not sure which edits your trying... Perhaps this one?
Keyboard & Gamepad Users - Adjust steering & throttle controls as you drive.
https://roextended.ro/forum/viewtopic.p ... 448#p50448

If your game thinks you have head tracking software installed, but don't use it, then you may get a locked cam 1, unable to move it with mouse etc. But this would also be the case without using any of my edits.
You can prevent headtracking from ever working by using these 2 lines:
config_lines[272]: "mix headtron ``"
config_lines[279]: "mix headtrwmon ``"

I've just added all the line edits to a test profile and it still works as normal, with a mouse & keyboard.

If you're talking about another set if edits, just let me know.

Yep, I do have opentrack and aitrack installed on my pc, it's just that I don't use them everytime I play so sometimes I resort to keybinds as they aren't that bad with smooth interior cam. I usually have a key set to disable head tracking but it doesn't work with those changes. Thanks for the fix

@Icy687 - It seems that opentrack etc will always tell the game its in use even if it isn't, causing the issue of locked cam 1.
I've had my TrackIR 3 since 2005 and it's never caused that problem, it can be toggle on/off with a button within its own software. Although I always drive with it on.

In 1.38 SCS added a head tracking button to toggle it on/off with c_ht_on, I use that for a lot of my edits as most of them will be more helpful for non-head tracking users with mouse/keyboard/joypad.

In driving adjustments, it's used to toggle those adjustment on/off.

I've added 'the fix' to the help section of the post in case others have the same issue as you.
Thanks.

@JHTrucker

I need a little help, I'm editing the control file and I added walk around your truck Tobii eye no driver to the mod folder. On the console, I checked in the game and there are no error messages, but I still can't get it to work. I press 5 keys and the driver just moves to the windshield in the car?

@Maxis82 - Check your PM, I've sent you a controls.sii file that works for me.
If it works, I'll re-arrange the post to make Tobii Eye edits more clear, when I add my next update, v3.0 coming soon...
