A link to San's FOV changer Mod / utility
http://il2fovchanger.byethost7.com/
There are no contact details for San's on his site so I can't ask him directly - which is
a stinking shame cause out of all the mods made, I rate this FOV change to be right
up there with 6dof and the stunningly updated and realistic cockpit mods.
I feel that every effort should be made to bridge the gap between the virtual and real experience,
and to that point adding better peripheral vision brings us one huge step closer to that goal.
Its simply a more viseral and immersive sensation. And makes me WANT to fly in cockpit rather
than cheat view cause you can simply see more of the beautiful interior as WELL as more of the exterior.
Easier to judge decent on cockpit landings and far easier to taxi to runway. Better rearward visibilty and
a whole lot better deflection tracking. Shit, I could go on and on.
So Iam hoping that its a relitively straight forward task to change the native IL2 FOV angles.
And, fingers crossed, someone out there will take on the challenge / task. Godders, erm, I mean, modders willing.
Modders seem to be an elusive bunch, half myth half men. Although, having people
always asking you to perform like circus monkeys can grow pretty tired pretty quickly.
But Blue Angel did ask soooooo, well...
To all pilots who haven't tried San's FOV changer, this mod is a must try. You won't believe
the difference it makes to every aspect of your flying style. Within a few minutes you'll realise
just how much we compensate for the lack of peripheral vision in all areas of play.
Only drawbacks (which is a biggie) - Not too stable and doesn't work with z axis on 6dof (zoom)
so hotas hard to maintain. Would love to know feedback from others about their feelings on this subject
