View Full Version : A 'wider' WIDEVIEW

On some of the tracks and sacreenshots and movies I have seen, some pilots seem to have a really wide FOV, compared to the standard 'wideview' I can obtain with the relevent 'pagedown?' key press in game.
And I want it!
Can the maximum FOV be changed somehow in the config.ini?
Thanks for any help

the "un-centered" gunsite view , Shift + F1 , combined with "page-down" gives the widest possible view in FB with default controls

Screenshots taken with a Matrox Parhelia video card can be up to three screens (270 degrees) wide, however the framerates achievable with that card are reputed to be low at decent graphics settings.
With any other video card, Badsight's info is correct. The PageDwn (90 degrees FOV) option is as wide as it goes without spanning (and maybe even with spanning) accross multiple monitors. I can't recall if spanning gives a wider view side to side or just crops the top & bottom of the picture to get the aspect ratio right.
