What Do FoV and Different Camera Settings Do?
Camera shake - An artificial shake when your car hits the ball or a surface. By default this is turned on but make sure you have this off.
Field of view (FoV) - The field of view is how wide your vision is from behind your car. Higher the value, the more you will see.
Distance - This decides how far away the camera is positioned from your car.
Height - This decides how high or low the camera is placed. Lower height will increase your visibility and a higher height is good for better control.
Angle - Decides how far pointed down your camera is.
Stiffness - The camera stiffness adjusts how far your camera will move with turning and your speed.
Swivel speed - Determines how fast your camera moves when used manually.
Transition speed - The speed at which your camera switches from car cam to ball cam. The higher the value the quicker the camera will transition from your car to the ball.
Ball cam - One of two camera views, ball cam refers to when the camera will stay fixated on the ball unless manually moved.
