    Title : Camera Swing
    Reproduction Rate: 10%
    Blocker=No
    Details: I have noticed on a regular basis that a camera swing happens in which sends the view in a unpredictable direction ( often the sky ). This has been present since the new targeting system. I mentioned this to my guildies and others have experienced this too..
    Steps to Reproduce: Unfortunately I am unsure how to repo this at this time. :(

    I confirm that .. usually i'm running... in NON COMBAT MODE... i click on DUST icon (movements key pressed) , i replace mouse on the PLAYER... AND VOILA'.... camera looking at the stars... and player running on the wrong direction.
    i need to stop running.. manually set camera view with mouse.. and then... i need to find the correct direction of player.

    It helps if you crank your vertical sensitivity way down. (options -> controls -> "Camera Look Sensitivity (Y)") Mine is set at about 5% Y, and 10% X. But in 3rd-person mode it still shouldn't go so high. It is not only useless, but annoying when it does that.

    My previous experience is with FFXI, which only lets you look straight up in 1st-person view. You can still see much of the sky in 3rd-person view if you lower the camera to the ground. (It aims at your head.)

    Similar issue since... can't remember, but certainly since R29, probably way before.
