Totally random post I know but I especially like this camera whereas it looks like your lying down on the road and your chins running over the road. In other words, low-bumper cam or splitter cam (yes it's that low). PGR3, Forza and other racing games have it and it gives the best feeling of speed possible. Try racing in PGR3 in chin-cam and I guarantee it will feel like you're watching a video of a car racing from a camera placed on it's bumper.

Confused check this video I made in PGR3: (140Mb)
right-click > save as please. (requires divx)

This view is great for recording people or just to give a true sense of speed and also gives you the impression of watching a video from a camera placed down there. (ala Touring Cars)

Also please let us turn off everything on the HUD as well as seperate items to give us the option of immersing ourselves and feel like we are behind the wheel of our very own exoticar !

Thanks for reading, don't forget to tip the mods !

I'd be actually surprised if you couldn't completely turn off the HUD.

It'd be very cool to judge your speed, Opponents and what not just by using your speedometer and mirrors.

Nice lap :wink2:

I thought they stopped you getting rid of the HUD after the update, actually I didn't try it after the update :nuts:

Yeah very nice lap. Could you make a video with cockpit view and the R34. Thanks ;)

I'll see what I can do, probably by the end of the week though.
