Camera during machine gun use

[Dhannor]

Is there a solution for the annoying shoulder switching during the use of the machine gun? With me it keeps changing viewpoint every shot. Which is annoying. but worse: I am aiming at a different spot each shot because of this.

shot 1 : left shoulder view
shot 2 : right shoulder view
shot 3 : left shoulder view.
etc
etc

That should only happen if your pressing down the middle mouse button, if you are using a Game Pad controller i aint got a clue, here is a screen shot of a game controller menu from within the game, EDIT Shoulder Aim LT

Okay but I don't use the middle button or a gamepad.
I just use the mouse left and right buttons.
From that picture it looks like L1 = switch from aiming to normal? This is not the problem. It's switching from aiming over the left shoulder to aiming over the right shoulder and back.

Reset your key bindings. If it doesn't happen anymore, it means you bound the same key to two actions. If it keeps happening, uninstall/disable any 3rd party mouse software or try with a different mouse.

hmm didnt chance any keybindings (i use default) but a double binding could cause this problem.
I will have a look and let you all know.

Ok seemed like the toggle was unbound. I thought maybe that was it. I bound it and tested it. No change. No keys are double bound.

The middle mouse / press down , should change the Shoulder Aim from right hand to left hand, lots of the keys in SE4 have multiple functions as Genesis said setting to defaults should fix it

Try the Steam verify game files feature.
If that doesn't work, try uninstalling & reinstalling the game, but first backup your profile & saves:

Then in the settings found on the initial splash screen window, turn off DX12 (cryptically called 'D3D12').
Run in Borderless Windowed mode (selectable in-game, video settings).
In the in-game options, under "privacy settings" at the bottom, turn off the sending of information to Rebellion (causes occasional infrequent crashes).


Otherwise, you have a bad mouse.

I am sure your mouse sensitivity is too strong.

Camera angle doesn't change unless you pointing hard left/right/top/below

Wrong.

If you ever read OP It's MG not about Rifle

[Dhannor]

Both wrong actually.
This happens when I aim at the target with the MG in the middle of the screen.
The game does the switching automatically each MG shot. that's the entire problem. Especially because it changes the aim with each camera switch.

No, pressing the middle mouse button (default config) changes 'shoulder' firing for SMG, LMG, and pistols. I know for positively sure because I use it every game I play.

[Dhannor]

It does but that's not the problem I have
