A method and system for displaying a 2D representation of a 3D world on an image plane of a simulator is disclosed. The image plane defines a fixed viewing region of the replica environment of the simulator and also corresponds to a view observed by an operator of the simulator. The method includes the steps of determining a head position of the operator of the replica environment and modifying a viewing volume of the 3D world based on the head position of the operator while keeping the image plane constant to form a modified viewing volume. The 2D representation based on the modified viewing volume is then generated and displayed on the image plane.
