Is there a way to adjust the Fov? I'm playing on a single 2560x1440 monitor, but I'd really like to pull the camera back a little more.

Wow, I might have to give this a go. Kinda given up on tri screen for a while. Too much hassle, but this game rocks so I might have to set it up again!

[!]. Ultrawide Hud Fix
> Fixes part of the collections hud remaining on the left side of the screen & the challenges on the right side
> Hides the small circle for hommies, the vtol hint message & the red screen effect when your health is low

[!]. How it's done
> You need Gibbed tools Rev 96 for Saints Row: The Third

> First you unpack the vpp_pc files
Gibbed.SaintsRow3.UnpackVPP.exe patch_uncompressed.vpp_pc
Gibbed.SaintsRow3.UnpackVPP.exe interface.vpp_pc

> Then you unpack the str2_pc files
Gibbed.SaintsRow3.UnpackSTR2.exe hud.str2_pc
Gibbed.SaintsRow3.UnpackSTR2.exe hud_diversion.str2_pc

> Edit the files hud.lua, hud_collection.lua & hud_diversion.lua

[hud.lua]
if health_pct < .3 then
(add comments here with --)
elseif health_pct < .5 then
(add comments here with --)

(edit the alpha value)
vint_set_property(Hud_sniper_hint_bar.handle, "alpha", 0)

(add this line)
vint_set_property(objects.frame_img_h, "visible", false)
(after)
local objects = Hud_followers.slot_objects[slot]
(before)
if head_img_name ~= data.head_img_name then

[hud_collection.lua]
(add)
local h = vint_object_find("collection_grp")
vint_set_property(h, "visible", false)
(after)
game_autosave()
(before)
else hud_collection_start() end

[hud_diversion.lua]
(add)
local chal_grp = Vdo_base_object:new("chal_grp")
chal_grp:set_visible(false)
(after)
function hud_diversion_chal_complete()
(before)
if Hud_challenge_data.respect_reward > 0 then

> Repack the folders (make sure to delete original str2_pc files before repacking)
Gibbed.SaintsRow3.PackSTR2.exe hud
Gibbed.SaintsRow3.PackSTR2.exe hud_diversion

> The str2_pc files are loaded by the coresponding asm_pc files. Those files need to be updated with your changes
Gibbed.SaintsRow3.UpdateASM.exe patch_vint_doc_containers.asm_pc .
Gibbed.SaintsRow3.UpdateASM.exe vint_doc_containers.asm_pc .
"." means it will load the updated str2_pc files from the current folder

patch_uncompressed.vpp_pc >>> hud.str2_pc >>> hud.lua, hud_collection.lua / patch_vint_doc_containers.asm_pc
interface.vpp_pc >>> hud_diversion.str2_pc >>> hud_diversion.lua / vint_doc_containers.asm_pc

> Final step: copy the updated files to your [game_install] folder
hud.str2_pc, hud_diversion.str2_pc, patch_vint_doc_containers.asm_pc & vint_doc_containers.asm_pc
