Dear Modders next Gen FOV Please

[thunderdome77]

Hello and good day all,

Hoping one of you Talented Modders will update, revise or build new another FOV Mod so I can enjoy this masterpiece again without getting motion sickness from narrow FOV.

 

thank you!

I agree, I miss the OG oldgen 1.32 version of the FOV mod (broken for next gen patch 4.04 and will not be updated).

I'm really hit with the NG nextgen up too close camera, oh... the freakin' motion-sickness-wobbles I feel starting, when I'm searching inside homes, etc.

 

 

I think I'll try this mod just for the FOV camera range options (maybe the other non-camera options can be turned off)?

Play update: That mod made it worse, so no simple FOV mods for NG 4.04 yet. :sad:

 

Update 8-15-23: There's a new "updated" FOV mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/8470

 

I'm going to try that one, maybe the FOV mod Gods have granted options for NG 4.04!

It works, yay! :D

 

A quick tip on installing it, although these instruction were included in the mod's zip (although people won't see it just using a mod manager to install the mod).

 

TIP: For users just trying to just install this mod with a Mod Manager, do it AFTER adding the items below, then install the mod, and then do a Script Merger before playing. :smile:

The mod is working for myself, I knew ahead of time from past installs of mods with added .xml and setting entries, to do what I've stated (learned from mod install failure).

Here's what I did to have the mod work as advertised.

Make sure to add this into your user.settings file found here:

C:\Users\*your_username*\Documents\The Witcher 3\

[modFOVTweak]

modFOVTweakExplorationFOV=70

modFOVTweakSailingFOV=80

modFOVTweakHorseFOV=70

modFOVTweakSprintingFOV=80

Also:

Make sure to add modFOVTweakConfig.xml; into both the dx11filelist and dx12filelist files found here:

*path_to_your_game_install_directory*\The Witcher 3\bin\config\r4game\user_config_matrix\pc\

Add this somewhere towards the top, for example under the hdr.xml; statement.

This would look like this:

hdr.xml;

modFOVTweakConfig.xml;

SAVE BOTH MODIFIED FILES AFTER EDITING

CaptainCrunch said in another mod post somewhere on Nexus:

"Well, this isn't a mod, just a quick tweak to disable that horrible effect while using witcher senses. The FOV and the effect when using witcher senses/focus always made me very motion sick, so I took a look at the ini files and found a way to turn off this horrible effect".

Just go to bin\config\base\gameplay.ini. Open the ini and look for this lines:

MotionSicknessFocusMode=false

now set it to

MotionSicknessFocusMode=true

There you go, that blurry effect on the edges of you screen is gone, no more motion sickness and now you can even use witcher senses as a tool for better exploring your surroundings since it still does zoom in.

If you liked this little tweak, download the attached Readme file and endorse.

Cheers, mateys :wink:

I say:

Thanks CaptainCrunch, and anything to remove any other Motion Sickness "starters" away, is a good thing. :smile:
