Camera settings in Assetto Corsa Rally refer to the positioning of the camera when you are driving the car, whether in the driver's seat or using one of the numerous available cameras. This setting can be accessed from the pause menu after you start a game mode.

Here are the best camera settings in Assetto Corsa Rally for a balanced and immersive gameplay experience:

Setting	Recommended Value	Resullt
Distance	-1 to 0	Keeps the camera close to the dashboard or the car's bonnet, improving focus on apexes
Lateral	0	Keeps the camera centered and avoids offset. Keep it zero unless you want rally driver realism (left-hand cockpit).
Height	+1 to +2	Slightly elevated gives a clearer view of crests and corners without losing immersion.
Pitch	0	Neutral prevents horizon tilt. You can adjust it only if the screen is elevated or the seat position feels too low.
Field of View Offset	+2 to +5	Wider FOV improves awareness in tight forest stages. Keep it within this range since too much can cause distortion.
Pitch Movement Multiplier	40–50 %	Natural up/down motion when braking or jumping makes it realistic without being disorienting.
Lateral Movement Multiplier	40–50 %	A small camera sway during cornering adds depth. Recommended to keep below 60 % for focus.
Lateral Movement Speed	20–30 %	Slow response avoids jitter during counter-steer on stages like Wales
Longitudinal Movement Multiplier	40–50 %	Adds mild forward/back motion when accelerating or braking. Recommended mostly for wheel users
Longitudinal Movement Speed	10–15 %	Slower transition feels more natural and easier on the eyes. Can keep unchanged for neutral
Vertical Movement Multiplier	40–50 %	Simulates suspension bounce. Keep it within this range since higher values might make the camera unstable on bumps and undulations
Vertical Movement Speed	10–15 %	Slower vertical damping smooths out rough terrain visuals and prevents jarring
Wheel/Driver Visibility	Wheel Off / Hands On (optional)	Turning off the steering wheel reduces distraction. However, keeping hands on adds realism if you wish for more immersion.

Apart from these optimal settings for the camera, here are a few presets for competitive driving and immersion. These presets modify crucial factors such as FOV and wheel visibility depending on the gameplay feel you want:

Competitive Driving:

• Distance = −1
• Height = +2
• FOV = +3
• All movement multipliers ≈ 40 %
• All movement speeds ≈ 10 %
• Wheel = Off

Immersion (accurate simulation of the rally cockpit):

• Distance = 0
• Height = 0
• FOV = +2
• Pitch/Lateral/Vertical Multipliers ≈ 60 %
• Speeds ≈ 20 %
• Wheel = On

Additionally, if you intend to use VR or a triple-screen display, it is recommended to keep all movement multipliers under 40% to prevent nausea or disorientation. If you want a bonnet view while driving, you can reduce the height to -1 and distance to -2 to create a more road-focused frame while retaining the rally immersion.
