Ianua Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Can someone post in the thread how to change the field of view. I have read about a dozen different "add this line to x file" with various files and various changes. I know this is a issue for many people and I thought one Mod thread for this issue would be better than trying to search for "FOV" which is too short to be searched for. Thank you in advance to anyone that helps me out here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ianua Posted November 20, 2018 Author Share Posted November 20, 2018 So you have to change it each time you load the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppycur Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Unsure on that one; BUT, you can do it while it's loading I think (hit F1 at some point during the load process). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scyris Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Unsure on that one; BUT, you can do it while it's loading I think (hit F1 at some point during the load process). Better question is why the hell did they remove it from the video options in the first place? Its one of the a17 changes that just make me scratch my head and ask why?

Guppycur Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 ...pretty much. =) (I actually think I saw Faatal answer this question, but it didn't affect me so I didn't read it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ianua Posted November 20, 2018 Author Share Posted November 20, 2018 One of the Dev's said it was a performance thing. The command worked great, I hit F1 at the main menu (before selecting the continue game) and it opened the console and i used the command you gave me. I'm still getting woozy, and I didnt notice any performance issues at 90. I may try to increase it. Thank you Guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhaineGB Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 It was probably removed because the actual FOV slider doesn't work right now. It's in the options and you can totally enable it. But it doesn't do anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DUST2DEATH Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 It was removed/locked because they are managing performance via how much is rendered. Yes. We discovered different devs had it at different settings. That changed the consistent look the designers wanted and it was causing performance issues. The average player often changes settings, not knowing what they are doing, making the game run poorly and then we get the blame, so we locked it down. There is a setting in the ini file, but it looks like debug mode (dm) has to be on for it to use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guppycur Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 I read it as: "We locked it for design and testing purposes, but forgot to unlock it for release." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guppycur Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 ...why is this moved to modding? What kind of person hates modders so much they would continually ruin this section of the forum? I just don't get it. This isn't a mod, it's a console command. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
