rFactor yaw limit

In rFactor when you look left or right, the limit is not even 90 deg. When the TIR limit is reached you an still look farther by pressing look left/right buttons.
Is there a setting somewhere in rfactor that will allow for more yaw (left/right)?

Might be a setting within the software config file.

In the rFactor software. Have you tried posting in their forums?

Hi

I know this is a rather old thread, but I believe I might know the answer, if the OP still needs it, or for anyone else.

In your .plr file look for these lines:
Look Up/Down Angle="0.48000" // Angle to look up/down (pitch) w/ controller in radians (= degrees / 57)
Look Roll Angle="0.25000" // Angle to lean head (roll) w/ controller in radians (= degrees / 57)
Glance Angle="1.95000" // Angle to look left/right (yaw) w/ controller in radians (= degrees / 57)

These are the lines that control TIR in rfactor. Just edit the values to whatever you want. As you can see in my examples I have a lot of Glance Angle. I use it simply for safety if I happen to go off track. I am able to see if anyone is coming up on me before I pull back on track. Sometimes the car may not be sitting in a position where I can see the track in the mirrors. You may not want this much, but it really doesn't matter while driving. I have to really turn my head alot to look around that far.

Hope this helps :)
