    Guys, I need some help with screen position adjustment. I run a 40” monitor, and have my wheel pretty close to it, and my FOV is right where I like it.. I like to position my virtual seat so that I can see my tachometer or speedometer inside my wheel rim. In rFactor (1) this is achievable, but in rFactor 2 I can’t adjust my seat enough to get it where I like it. Is there a text file I can edit to get some more screen position adjustment than what is achievable with the seat adjustment keys? There are some photos below to illustrate my problem. Also, how do I submit this to ISI as a suggestion for future improvement? Just need a little more seat adjustment freedom.

    Thanks guys.

    Good adjustability in these:

    The file you are searching for is "370z.hdv". Inside you will find the parameters for seat adjustment.
    The problem is that this file is included inside the "370z_MAIN.mas" file. You have to extract all files from this mas-file, edit the hdv-file, rebuild a new "370z_MAIN.mas" and finally create a new component file for the Nissan370zGT4.

    There is an adjustment in plr file about this. I think your point of view is looking too much to the ground. I forget the parameter that has to be changeg but you will find stuff about this in Zeospantera thread about fov. Is in his signature.

    Actually a pitch adjustment may help a little. Good lead, thanks very much guys. I have no idea how to extract a .mas file...maybe later on that.
