Your right the shift + direction keys do not seem to work like it says in the manual. The only other way I know is to go to the F3 view, and hold down the right mouse button then rotate the view with your mouse. However I do not think this works if you are in mouse steering mode.

Do you have virtual cockpit turned on?
You know what they say, don't you? About how us MechWarriors are the modern knights, how warfare has become civilized now that we have to abide by conventions and rules of war. Don't believe it.

Yes tried everything, virtual, no virtual... doesnt work either. Problem is that TrackIR also doesnt work... Im always switching to the F3 sight to look around.

Simple fix...
Go into options and redo the key bindings to the keys of your choice. I use the NumPad keys to control camera views.
It works great in the F4 cockpit view.

Then you can set your hat switch to emulate the new key bindings and look around to your hearts content.

Ok tested some more things and I think there must be something wrong- would count it as a bug.
