Has anyone encountered this HUD and movement issue?

[100Lex]

I've been playing all day. The past 2 hours the HUD started moving itself to weird places, usually halfway off the screen. Then shortly after the character will I pull a weapon out, he holds it weird up in the air and when you aim you cant see where you're shooting, like up in the air and its really hard to pick up items. Only first person, but the games impossible to play. When I restart it, it works fine for a bit then stops. All the ships and the buggy work fine.

Drivers are updated, I verified game files, restarted my computer, and its still doing it. I have a GTX3050 and plenty of ram. Game ran fine ALL day (I'm sick so I had all day off) up until 2 hours ago. Not tryna get fined for losing some missions haha

Anyone else experiencing or know how to fix this? I can't find anything specific online, even ran it through AI to see what it could find.

Thanks Commanders!

You don't say how you're viewing the game: Flat screen? VR? A headlook system?

Which controls are you using - and: do you have a cat?

No, that's a serious question - in my control setup, I use HOSAS, with the headlook usually controlled by a secondary thumbstick, but also mapped to the default keyboard controls. If the headlook moves by itself, it is either the slightly sticky thumbstick, what I suspect to be an intermittent contact problem between the grip and the base or one of my three cats stepping (or rolling over) on one of the two keyboards connected to my PC.

No meow meows lol

Using a flatscreen, (no VR) Thrustmaster HOTAS, and the keyboard. All buttons work fine on MS Flight Sim so I doubt its a controller input issue.

Noticed it's all good until only after getting out of the rover or a ship. Up until then, everything is fine. All the HUDs are fine in the rover and the ships. It's only when I get out...

I can still look around just fine on foot, the HUD just goes crazy, moves around different spots and his arm is misaligned....reinstalled the game and re-set the settings. Still have the issue

Filed a ticket with Frontier but who knows how long that will take. I just find it strange I was able to play all day then it started out of nowhere lol

edit: also worth mentioning when I use a terminal or hit pause, it goes back to normal until I leave the terminal or unpause

Pressing F12 works for VR users - you could always give it a try.

In headlock mode I've noticed similar in ship when pulling hard up/down.

Haven't managed to reproduce it reliably yet.

I use an x56, via vjoy to remove the ghosting issues on the throttle.

I'm not on VR but I'll try that thanks!

I've seen this behavior when using something like TrackIR. I had to continually recenter.

 

[100Lex]

I don't use any TrackIR or VR..... Maybe the game thinks I do? all the 3D/VR settings are disabled.... I'm overdue to get into the VR stuff haha

Uninstalled, deleted the leftover files from appdata folder, and the main game folder, and reinstalled....again Tried the F12 thing, all it does is take a screenshot. Not sure what else to do other than just stick to bounty hunting and transport for now I guess, unless frontier actually looks into it... arrgh

Not sure what to do but I appreciate all the help. If I figure it out all post the fix incase anyone else encounters it..any ideas from anyone let me know, Thanks!

EDIT: CHANGED THIS SETTING FROM "OFF" TO "ON" AND ITS FIXED. NOT SURE WHY OR HOW THAT HAPPENED, BUT THAT FIXED IT. ALL CAPS BECAUSE IM PUMPED.

Thanks for all your help Commanders!

While you're at it - if you have a free button, you might want to map "reset headlook"

I thought Track IR doesn't work any more on foot ??

You are correct. In on foot mode it works the same way Skyrim did.
