Camera randomly changing angle

Started happening today- I use the left/right mouse buttons to adapt my view while moving/skyriding, but today, my camera has started randomly snapping to random angles around me, or pointing straight up into the sky.

This is causing a lot of issues- including falling off a cliff due to a poorly timed set of circumstances coinciding with a camera snap.

I didn’t make any changes to my camera settings, and nothing SEEMS to have changed, but here I am.

Have tested with various dpi settings on my mouse, with all addons disabled, then re-enabled one by one to see which, if any, are causing the issue.

Tried the command /console rawMouseEnable 1 and all it did was lock my camera in place and left me unable to move it at all.

Not sure what else to try, but it’s making the game almost unplayable, because I have to basically play touch-and-go with my mouse to make sure I don’t have the camera swinging wildly around mid-combat/flight.

Go into your menu → “Options” → Type in “camera” in the search at the top. Then under the “Camera Following Style” ensure that’s set to “Never adjust camera”. I was having the same issue, and this option fixed it for me. Hope this helps!

It turned out to be a driver issue! I’m running Garuda Cosmic, and I’m stuck using Mesa drivers. They finally updated them, and the issue resolved itself!
