Hey Holger,

I've tried your fix, but sadly I couldn't get it to work with Prepar3D v3. It could be, that I went somewhere wrong, as the add on wasn't listed inside Prepar3D. I've followed your instructions in the readme file (including modifying the dll.xml). Is there something else to consider when using Prepar3D v3?

Also it would be nice if the dev team could do something about this. I'm quite baffled that so few people have a problem with this, as it is really annoying. Do most people use additional software for their panels or have they just accepted, that the camera movement is as it is?

I suspect LM will fix it soon. It's not really a viable training platform if you can't maintain a fixed forward view.

We found the issue with the math being used to calculate offsets and corrected it. This will be fixed in 3.2. Thank you all for your feedback and help tracking this down.

This is great. Thank you for your work LM team :-)

Edit: I may be a bit impatient but is there already a date for the 3.2 release? Or can I look for the release date myself? A quick search over the forum and using google didn't get me any info sorry.
