Game Zooms in too much.

[Reactor Worker]

I just got my Eyefinity setup running and tested BL. To my surprise it let me select the correct resolution and the game runs fine.

However there is a slight problem with the game zooming in too much in both first and third person perspectives.

I've attached a screenshot of the problem. The resolution I'm trying to play at is 5760x1080.

Is your camera zoom locked in?

Press F

No. F causes the game to zoom in even further. This is the "default" zoom level.

Oh. hmmmm

1.Try a different resolution
2.Redownload blockland after backing up addons
3.Remove the Eyefinity thing.

The game runs fine at 'normal' resolutions. Addons are not the cause.

The "Eyefinity thing" is kinda what I am trying to use.

Really, the effect is the same as if you were switching from a 4:3 monitor ration to a 16:10...IE. the game zooms in the camera to occupy the wider space. This effect is greater considering the increased width. This is known as "Vert-".

I'm just wondering how difficult it would be to alter the game to run "hor+".

Whats the FOV command exactly? I know it is Field of View, but what do I need to type in to the console?

setdefaultfov("100 100 100");
Is default. The F key decreases it, and any higher numbers are the "opposite" of the F key, kind of like a fish eye lens, but tends to make things stretch unnaturally.
Try 125 125 125.

Ah, that works great. Thanks.
