I think it makes a good improvement as it allows you to look through the corner more and pick your line rather than just looking directly forward.There are some Youtube links of guys drifting whilst looking almost completely out the side window.See - http://www.assettocorsa.net/forum/index.php?threads/real-head-motion-0-8-0.4755/Worth a look... although maybe not so much for the triple screen guys. « Last Edit: January 02, 2015, 01:58:42 PM by Freezer » Logged Wally Administrator Hero Member Posts: 11035 Karma: 152 AC Admin Re: Real Head Motion « Reply #1 on: January 02, 2015, 02:53:30 PM » I've been using this for a long time. I use it mostly for pitch smoothing, so that the viewpoint is not just fixed to the horizon or to the car (which is really dumb by Kunos). I also use a bit of head roll as you corner. I don't use any of the look ahead features.

Definitely a good improvement to the game... Logged Bruce Global Moderator Hero Member Posts: 3440 Karma: 76 "Look out, I'm comin' through!"

Re: Real Head Motion « Reply #8 on: January 06, 2015, 01:10:37 PM » I set this up last night prior to testing the new Eastern Creek track, used both Wally's and Freezer's configurations as an example. They make a huge difference!Not just the look ahead or yaw when cornering, but couple that with the effect of clipping a ripple strip, it increases the immersion considerably.
