Can't you use the mouse to look right and left?

Indeed, visual camera movement can also be done using the mouse, without having to use this plug-in. But when driving a truck, let alone using the steering wheel, sometimes it takes both hands on the wheel when performing maneuvers such as turning and parking.

Back again to their respective preferences, if you think it's better to use the mouse, then please continue. The most important thing when playing games is that we enjoy it, it can improve mood so that our feelings become happier.
