1st person Gek is all wrong

[Unicorn]

I'm sad this is STILL not addressed.

I've filed an official report to Hello about it too.

From third person to first person the camera is not the same. Going first person as a Gek character means the camera is placed a good foot or two above the sightline of a Gek. Because of this I play exclusively in 3rd Person (since being able to switch between the views... and also realizing I identify as Gek while playing NMS) because the 1st person perspective is not immersive because I suddenly become too tall.

I guess I could try and find a mod (or learn to make one myself) that can just adjust the 1st person camera down a few feet to line up with where the 3rd person Gek model's eyes are.

Anyone else bothered by this oversight (heh)?

It bothered me for a bit until I paid closer attention to the appearance modifier flavor text. You're appearance isn't a race change.

In game lore states that your modified appearance is a product of holographic overlay and not any physical changes to your character. Meaning when you change your appearance to that of a Gek you're not actually turning yourself into a Gek but rather projecting an illusion. That your first person Eye level is higher than the appearance you're projecting would therefore be accurate. As your character is in fact taller than real Geks. I haven't messed around with it much but I imagine the eye level is shorter for Vykeen players as well.

Where did you see that?

An anomaly doesn't actually have an appearance, we natually take the form of the dreamers because that's the only other human/anomaly contact Atlas has had outside its what's recorded with its creator.

"The module applies advanced holographic techniques to recalibrate the light around the user, allowing them to adopt whatever appearance they desire. Visual data must be properly formated (sic) before use."

That's what it says on the right side when you build the Appearance Modifier.

Thanks, I don't know how I've managed to miss that. But that's interesting none the less, and possibly explains the anomaly's body to start with.

Necroposting. But still, this post is first result when google that problem.
1st person camera actually was lower when you play as gek, idk since when its default level for all races, but its bother me a lot too.
