Is there any way to adjust the game's FOV for wide screen displays? The game is nigh unplayable otherwise; it's impossible to see much of anything around you because the view is so zoomed in.

Also, none of the available fixing tools work on this version on the game; only 1.0. Is there really no fix? It really is astounding how unplayable this game is with the way it's currently released.

Someone uploaded this like four hours ago and it works for me. :)

Yeah I tested this new FOV fix too a minute ago and it really works great.

Not only does it allow you to change the FOV ingame with F5 and F6 but it also does list screen resolutions in the video settings that where not listed before (e.g. 2560 x 1440). Absolutely awesome.

Wow, I wasn't expecting a new fix to come so soon. ^^ It definitely improves the game by a wide margin. Thanks!

Too bad the game is so terribly mediocre.

Thanks for the share! The default FOV is terrible.

If you're launching the game via Galaxy, you have to disable the overlay. It should launch after that with the mod installed.

Thanks so much for the link to the new fix. Works great.

Can someone point me to the perfect value for the FOV fix in the settings? Ive currently set it to 20.000 but that doesnt improve much. I also cant use the F5 F6 keys in game since I have a tenkeyless keyboard and it somehow doesnt recognize me pressing FN + 5 (Which on my keyboard stands for F5)

I have one of the re-released "Gamer's Choice" disc versions of the game which I think I bought in 2013 or later but I really don't get how to use the fix, it's not as obvious as setting the actual FOV number unlike other games. I have a 24" 1920x1080 res monitor and I really don't know what numbers I need to set for it.

Love the pun there. Good stuff.

Thank you for this! Didn't know why my game kept crashing on startup with the mod.

This game is so much more enjoyable with a decent FoV!

This fix works surprisingly well (with the only tweak needed to turn off the GOG overlay for this game). I beat the first level with that terrible FOV - but WOW - this seriously makes a world of different even from the title screen alone.

This or another similar fix should really be approved and integrated into the base game.

I confirm that the FOV fix is mandatory to fully enjoy the game.

Disable the overlay? Whats that? Is it a GOG Overlay? and how do you disable it?
