https://www.nexusmods.com/mechwarrior5mercenaries/mods/391 Will remove the bobbing after MASC/SC at least.

And this one will stop the shaking when the big orbital cannons fire.
These two will mitigate the worst of it but I'm not sure if there is one for general movement.

Mechs with bird-like legs (raven, marauder) have much less bounce. Have you tried these?

I understand motion sickness (actually I do not since I don't suffer from it, but you get what I mean) but the "bobbing" that you are describing is part of many mechs feature. Some mechs are built better than others and this is one of the many differences inbetween all of them that you can experience. Hence why the above comment advising you to try the "bird-like" kind of mechs. Although from experience I can't say that I really believe that they are better. I'm pretty sure that what really make a difference is the actual speed you are running at in conjunction with that specific mech you are using at that moment.

Because this end up being part of the difficulty and balance of the game, removing this is akin to asking for an easy mode or a cheat mode. Many people would either disagree or downright frown at such a mod for this reason and would explain why it is not something you can just find readily.

Pretty much. Avoid the tall ones, grasshopper and shadowhawk come to mind they have a lot of sway in the cockpit. Funny enough Highlander is not too bad though.

Recommend using the Synchronized Movement mod on Nexus - it helps alot with the head bobbing, as it makes the first person movement match what you see in third person the mech movement is far far smoother.

Ignore those saying its a "cheat", it has nothing to do with balance or difficulty in the game.

Must be nice not to suffer from motion sickness in video games, i however do and the bobbing on some mechs is way to much, its like they dont have Gyroscopes at all which is hilariously wrong.

[lordpooky]

um can't you just play third person?

[rwpass]

Thanks a lot for your hints. Maybe sometime there comes an easy mode option to switch bouncing off.

Ehhh.... you shouldn't really count on that - the game is 5 years old already with hardly any support or significant updates

Worth noting that while it works really well on some Mechs, others become almost totally unplayable. I'm convinced the mod author just did not test with the King Crab because the cockpit moves like 90 degrees side to side when you walk forward and is even WORSE when torso twisted.

[Eagle_of_Fire]

I think the mod just do exactly what it says on the tin. The King Crab has been noted for a lot of things, but grace and mobility is not one of those things.

the head bouncing is a major irritation in cockpit mode as it has pretty significant effects on aiming and the reticule doesn't move in 3rd person like it does in the cockpit. just more shoddy design by pirahna

MechWarrior was always a simulator, especially 3. The only one that wasn't was MechWarrior 4 and I don't know about MechWarrior clans. Looks like a movie game to me. I hope the story is good.

MechWarrior 4 is a arcade simulator.
