Look back

While riding in 1st person view, when one looks left/right the camera gently turn left/right, that's good.
But when one looks back, the camera instantly switches to the back view.

Would it be possible to have it do something like when looking left/right (i.e. gently turning back) instead ?

Also, it shouldn't look "fully back" (180deg with respect to the forward direction), but something less.
In fact I'd be much in favor of the following: no look-back button at all, just look left and look right buttons.
The more you hold the look left button down, the more the head turns left (up to a max of, let's say 90-120 deg, or whatever makes sense).

I would agree especially as I use head-look on analogue and looking right around to the rear would be great.

I can understand it would be good for button pushers too.

You could emulate headtracking by assigning the look to an analogue thumbpad and selecting joystick mode

So switch Freelook on and Joystick mode and my analogue head look thumbpad will work like EDT? I will have to try that thanks H. Interesting.

Still need Maxs idea for button boys I guess.

Should do, EDTracker only emulates a normal joystick. You could use an external joystick mapper, i think MaX linked a few somewhere, to get a better response curve, linear might be a bit too slow for look behind/forward.

Tried it but he just looks in the air and the thumbstick is ignored. Never mind !
