How to disable / reduce cockpit shaking when hit

Post by Skylee »

Hi guys,
I have a simple question to ask, I didn't find any answer looking through the forum...
is it possible to disable or at least reduce the cockpit shaking / bobbing effect that starts when the ship is hit by enemy fire?

I know it's done for the purpouse of realistic taking damage effect, but I find it a little too heavy for my eyes and the mouse stick movement...

Thanks a lot! :)
See ya!

About the only way to reduce the shaking is to get a bigger ship ... smaller ships get knocked around more.

:cool: Yes, to reduce shaking you can do it that way, too. Ergo, there are two ways you can reduce shaking. ;)

Hi and welcome.

If it was possible to reduce/remove shaking when hit,
it would be a major advantage to do so when
fighting. Earlier there were no shaking in
3rd person view but that door was closed as well
since it was an advantage in PvP over those pilots
that wants to sit in the cockpit.

The only ways to reduce shaking that I know of are:

1. Fly a heavier ship.

2. Make your attacks in inertial mode at the optimal speed and angle for the frame you are flying.
Trust me. At the correct attack approach it is possible to experience little to no shaking even if the opponent is giving it out as good as you are giving to him. ;)
