which fov-value do you use for cod4?

[quote]which fov-value do you use for cod4?

Whichever you feel comfortable with.

Multiplayer is 80 max, while single player is 160 max. I use 80 in both.

ah sry, i forgot to mention 16:10-widescreen..

but ingame settings dont get me fov-values - besides the console..

I have been trying to use Widescreen fixer for about 3 days in both vista 64 and windows xp, but i can't get it to work! I start the program and set the parameters, bf2 1.41, 16:10 and I already had the command line in for 2560x1600, but when i use the program it says the game is running but i can't enable within the game. I hit the ; key in game and nothing happens. When i minimize the game and go to desktop, i can hit the key and it says it's enabled, but nothing happens!! When I hit the ; in game it should adjust the FOV on the fly right? I really want to get this working!!

Well, it doesnt show 1.1 fov unless i switch to 16:9 and then switch back to 16:10 it shows 1.1 but when alt tab back into the game there is no change which is weird. Also when i hit the ; key in game, nothing happens. I will try to get it to work again. Oh, by the way when using the res command line should i not touch the resolutions in the in-game menu, leave them at defaults?

im from germany and i have to hit my "ü"-key to activate this fix.
its the keyboard layout that makes you believe it doesnt work. in the first place i thought that, too..

I had the same Problem... and although i changed the Layout of the keyboard in Windows to english (this button next to the clock) it changed it back to german once i alt-tabbed back to BF. Seems that u have to set it for every program. So just press alt+shift in battlefield and ur keyboard layout should be changed.

Well, It says ithe game is running in the program, but it doesnt show any FOV, just 0.000000, When i hit the ; key it says it's enabled, but nothing happens in the game! It's turns the fix off and on with the key, but bf2 shows no change. I play at 2560x1600 16:10

@dopefish, can't you test the triplehead resolution on your own? I mean the smaller triplehead like 1920x640 (3:1) or something like that.

Is just a thought.

V.1.41 I have the complete collection digital download. English version, 2560x1600 command line "E:Program FilesEA GAMESBattlefield 2BF2.exe" +widescreen 1 +szx 2560 +szy 1600 The fixer sees the game as running, when i hit the semi-colon key it say its enabled, but no FOV in the fov box and nothing happenning in the game. It's weird, since no one else is having this problem. Is it the nvidia resolution scaling maybe? 8800ultra problem, maybe? I am just stumped.....
