Thanks for the fix. I just finished the game, I played at 1080p resolution and used the FOV 1.6 fix. Unfortunately there are a ton of short unnecessary cut-scenes in the game and several of them mess up the fov and make it very low. Luckily when a new level is started or when you reload a save it resets it back, so you wont have to play in low fov for more than 3-5 minutes at a time. The game takes around 8(+/-1) hours to finish and low fov will take up 10-15 minutes of that. I wrote down when this happens, maybe it will help someone remember when to reload and fix the fov:

Level 1 - Welcome to Dreamland
- End of the level after you kill the first(and only) enemy -> There is no shooting after and level ends after few minutes.

Level 3 - The Hot Spot
- End of the level after you contact the HQ -> Enemies will launch a final short attack and you will have to play for a minute with a low fov, then the level ends.

Level 6 - The Last Stand
- Middle of level when you meet with the Delta team -> After some fighting you will have to fix some power cables. When you find the tools the game will be saved, so you can reload and the fov will be reset to your original setting.

Level 9 - Life or death
- Right at the beginning dr. Cray will contact you and mess up the fov -> You will have to fight in the next room with industrial catwalk. Once you clean it up and go through the double door the game will save, so you can reload and the fov will be fixed.
- At the end of level dr. Cray will again contact you and mess up the fov -> Luckily the game is saved right after, so you can reload and the fov will be fixed, so you don't have to fight the next catwalk area in low fov again.

Level 15 - Now boarding
- At the end of the level when the boss appears -> You will have to fight the boss in low fov, the level then ends.

Hi, thank you for your hack, very appreciated!

Can i ask how can you found the right value of FOV?
I ask to you because 1 week ago i tried to find with Cheat engine this value, and i had found
the following value in succeeding the picture.

But I think as the problem it's the incoorrect value because if i change that, the image it's deformed.

i have more problem to play with a strict FOV in every FPS.


Thank you anyway!

I am a newbee too - still strugeling sometimes to find the right Pointer in CheatEngine.... i did it via CheatEngine - once i found the FOV Value i looked what kind of String(Text) has this Value.
Then i opend HxD (Hexeditor) and looked for this Text Value and BOOM there it was.
