GP2: Nose camera view?

by Henrik Hjortna » Wed, 31 Jul 1996 04:00:00

Is there a camera mounted on the front wing or nose? How do i select it?

I'm asking because i experienced this: Selected a quick race and when the red startinglights went out, i just pressed TV director mode (insert). I just sat in my car, *not* taking the start. At some point the 'TV director' selects my car, but the view is from the nose of the car and pointing forward. No part of the car is in the picture and the view is completely down close to the asphalt. I started racing and the view and feel for speed was great! 10 seconds later the 'TV director' switched car... fun over.

views...

Select the outside view with [pgdn] then use [pgup] to cycle through the
car mounted cameras.

You just have to press "Page Up" a few times to get this view.

Pressing <page up> several times will cycle through various cameras
mounted on the car including the one on the front wing.  Strangely if
you knock your front wing off you can still use that camera.

If you split the car in half you can still use the rear wing camera
too.  Now that is strange.

You can even skip the <PgDn> part.
