I started modding ...
Here's my first effort ... including gibbed's glasses.






Now ... if I could only find the file where the hijack prompts position is stored or even a way to disable them.

Just a thought- the timing isn't too hard, so if you could just change the keybindings for the QTE's, we might have a temporary solution? For example, make it so that rather than requiring numbers 1-4, it always requires 1. That way you could hijack by timing button presses with the animation...

like I say, just a thought. Still waiting for any answer from eidos/square.

I'm on one screen and would love the QTEs disabled... so annoying.

That is exactly what I was thinking but unfortunately I haven't found the file yet.

YAY ! ...

I found a fix for the Hijack Prompts ...

You have to set the FOV factor to at least 1.7.
Yeah ... that is it !

Like this ... /fovfactor=1.7


Heli ...


Car ...

And the only thing that is affected by that fovfactor = 1.7 thing is the hijack prompts right?

Whu? Seriously? That's god damned wacky.

1.4 is a little high for my taste (that's the max, right?) But it'llbe worth it to have hijacking ability.

Nice woik.

I think the max is 2.
1.7 is the minimum s that I can use and still get the prompts.

hmmm..... I tried the 1.7 setting and I still don't get the prompts.

I'm running at 3840x1024.

I'll experiment with other settings tomorrow.

Paddy... what res are you running at?

I did some testing ...
In 3840x1024 you do get the prompts if you do not change the FOV.
Anything over the default FOV and the prompts won't show.

Here is a shot take with the default FOV ... prompts showing.

Now that is downright strange.

I only run at 3840x1024 and have not been receiving the prompts in the purchased version.... although I did in the demo.

I didn't start messing with FOV until reading this thread so now I'm totally confused. :?: :?:
