Hi Blue Angel,
Okay I'll start the ball rolling. I am assuming that a patch
is a mod soooo here is what I'd love to have. Its on the top of my wish list.
A patch to change the native IL2 FOV (field of vision) slots to have a wider angle of view.
Currently there are 13 slot ranging from 90deg to 20deg in 5 deg incriments.
There is a patch/util/mod program called San's FOV changer but its too unstable and
doesn't play well with the other kids - namely the 6dof mod.
I was hoping a modder could show us how to change the default wide view to say 101-106 deg
to get the true widescreen experience and compensate a bit for the lack of peripheral vision.
Plus you can enjoy flying in cockpit more because firstly you can see most of it at once and
your vision is not be so obscured by the console... It also makes it much simpler to land or taxi with a bit more peripheral vision.
I have been trying out San's FOV changer over the last coupla days and when it works its magical.
A totally different experience. Its like someone took off the blinkers and I could see again.
I am not sure how hard it will be to do, but maybe its simpler than I think. Regardless, I would like
someone to show me how to do it myself or create a little mod/util like IL2 manager.
