camera angles question

I'm having trouble figuring out changing camera angles. Plus I would like to know which camera angle most of you prefer?

Thanks

camera angles question

at first i used angle 2, the blimp shot , i'll call it of the entire field , but after running quite a few races i started using angle 4, that puts you right behind the horse and lets me get a better feel of where i am , in tight with others and so on, plus looking at fractions as they are posted, it just gives me a feel ., and lets me know what i need to do

FWIW I usually do not change

FWIW I usually do not change camera angles during a jockey race. I keep it on camera one, I like that angle best. During replays and just watching I like the overhead blimp shot. On camera 3 and 5 I believe you can click and hold, then drag the camera into different angles. Hope that helps

May they all come home safely!!!

you can change camera angles

you can change camera angles two ways...via keboard with numbered keys 1-9 or on screen with the mouse by pressing the numbers in the lower left corner.

I switch between camera 1,8&9. 8 and 9 make me feel like I am watching on tv. Just be careful when changing angles and jockeying...some angles switch thejokcey control button....and forward will mean move right and dcrease (energy) means go left...can get confusing until get the hang of it

angles

I prefer camera 4 to start the race to position my self were I want to be then switch to camers 3 when I get where i want to be in the race. That way I can judge where I want to go and find my holes.
But it is what you feel most comfortable with. That is just me.
