Mirror's Edge : FOV hack in 16:10

Post by **scavvenjahh** » 04 Mar 2009, 15:20

Using Racer_S's FOV hack (Aspect 1,6) to "improve" the FOV in 16:10...
No, you CANNOT get rid of the black bars to play. Everybody might not like a Hor+/Vert+/letterboxed game, but to see my belly when looking down to my feet feels much more natural to me

Agreed. This helps add the effect your version is from her head and not her stomach.

It is indeed pretty striking when looking down, but I also like to see more of the sky when looking forward. The default FOV feels a bit like wearing a baseball cap imho :lol:

hey I have the fov hack but everytime I change either the aspect ratio or the FOV it doesnt work. just gets white and blurry. How did you do? I have a 16:9 monitor

Actually, I don't think I have ever tried using the FOV hack with a 16:9 resolution.
Did you try lowering graphical settings, especially AA and lighting ?

I will try that but I don't really understand the FOV tool. Theres one slider which is called Aspect and another called FOV. If I keep the aspect ratio at 1.777 and increse the FOV slider, which is set on 0.0087266, to a higher value, would I get a higher fov? How did u do to get a higher fov? and shold't the FOV slider be from 0 to 180 degrees?

The aspect slider controls the black bars, the FOV slider controls your Field Of View.
