Hi, All: I was noticing that there was mention in-game about changing fov. I wondered: 1) if it is ok to do so on the server? 2) if it is ok, is it difficult to do? 3) does it help? For those of you who've seen me play, I stink. I've the reflexes of my great-great-great-great grandfather, and my eyes are getting worse by the day. I play on a laptop (though I'd like to get a desktop in a few months) and have a heck of a time seeing pixel change before it's way too late. I have a blast playing nonetheless. I play purely for fun. That said, I do have a goal: it is (which isn't saying much) to consistently break even on kill:deaths. I know that mostly takes practice and lots of time. Anyway, I just wanted to make sure I wouldn't get banned if I tried monkeying around with it, and to see if you guys think it would actually help or hinder play. Thanks. |

There are two settings (forget the full variable names), but here are the partial names: Field Of View "fov" - Allows you to extend/shrink how much to the left/right to you can see on your screen Depth of Field "dof" - Near objects blur when aiming far, far objects blur when aiming near. Both are modifiable and are fine to adjust on our server. I play with default fov (did not like the way it warps the view if showing wider view angle), and I play with dof off (so near and far never blur). Fee free to adjust those to your liking. Enjoy.

Great. Thanks, BitterSpock. I figured out how to change fov. How do I shut off dof? I saw something online like this: /r_dof_enable 0. Is that correct? Thanks again for getting back so quickly! |

That is correct to turn it off it is /r_dof_enable 0 On is /r_dof_enable 1 |
