Thx.

JohnnyK77 · 02-03-2010, 01:16 PM

Thanks!

This is with 16:10 aspect ratio?

In your opinion, which of the settings feels the most natural?

UglyNakedIndian · 02-03-2010, 01:18 PM

you havent moved from the spot? damn looks like u have moved some distence from the first one.

ep1s0d3 · 02-03-2010, 01:18 PM

very cool where did u get the images? from

Brumski · 02-03-2010, 01:21 PM

Edited to add 95 fov.

That and anything above felt really strange ingame.

All taken from exactly the same spot. Makes the bridge look much further away the more you increase the FOV.

FRYtheFLY · 02-03-2010, 01:22 PM

FoV 75 looks pretty ok

Probably somewhere between 65 and 75 would be ideal for me. Anything above that started to feel really strange ingame.

bozocvMNE · 02-03-2010, 01:28 PM

200 afaik.

Kahmy · 02-03-2010, 01:29 PM

Rather big difference there between 55 and 95 you can fit a full squad of guys next to the fence and not see them on 55. Cool

Rulesy · 02-03-2010, 01:30 PM

Just so you understand, the value you enter in the config file is the vertical FOV. Use this FOV calculator if you know your preferred horizontal setting already (e.g. from BF2/TF2 etc)

Levente_BMW · 02-03-2010, 01:34 PM

where do you change the fov?

Brumski · 02-03-2010, 01:34 PM

Added 200 which is the maximum as far as I know.

JP_Russell · 02-03-2010, 01:35 PM

Looks like about 70 would be best for me. Unfortunate that the gun's viewmodel isn't affected by the FoV, but oh well.

Levente_BMW · 02-03-2010, 01:36 PM

so if i have a HP LP3065 30 inch monitor i should set the fov to 200?

amazingstuff · 02-03-2010, 01:37 PM

Wait what? Why isnt it wider?! Looks still lalalala

Sevada88 · 02-03-2010, 02:00 PM

Fiddled with that a little, made a list of the horizontal field of views displayed in all the TC's screenshots.

55 FoV = ~80 horizontal FoV
65 FoV = ~90 horizontal FoV
75 FoV = ~100 horizontal FoV
85 FoV = ~110 horizontal FoV
95 FoV = ~120 horizontal FoV

Dead3yez · 02-03-2010, 02:10 PM

I fit the 55 FOV onto the 200 FOV... in paint lol. Hopefully this will give a good representation. The difference is actually insane imo.
