Widescreen Gaming Forum

I've put together a utility to customize your widescreen/surround field of view for Orcs Must Die!.

Default FOV


Fixed FOV

Usage is simple. Launch the tool, select your FOV from the combobox, play the game.

Things left to be sorted out:
-Weapon zoom FOV DONE
-Sprint FOV DONE
-Slight camera jerk on weapon change DONE

Feedback is welcome.

Nifty little tool deserves a triple thumbs-up: :twothumb :onethumb

Strangely I never use the crossbow zoom myself, but I do sprint a lot. Guess I should try to just... stop and take aim, sometimes.

No worries. I've got the sprint and zoom FOVs fixed. Next version of the tool should roll out today or tomorrow. ;)

Fantastic General Admission. You've made it perfectly playable! I cannot thank you enough for you efforts! ;)

Happy to help.

Tool has been updated. Sprint and Zoom FOVs are now automatically corrected for your chosen FOV. New download added to first post.

GeneralAdmission.

Is the camera jerk on weapon change because the game overwrites the FOV when you changes weapons, and you have to overwrite it again?

It's a single-player game so anti-cheat is not a problem. If the cause is the issue above, I'd like to get in touch with you on making it stop. I'll send you a PM.

Tool has been updated with a fix for the camera jerk, plus in-game hotkeys to switch camera orientation.

Dopefish, thanks for the input. I dropped you a PM. ;)

v0.4 has no icon and Avira AV picks a trojan...? v0.1-0.3 were cool. :~

I just successfully downloaded and extracted the .zip with the file intact and exactly matching the original on my system, so the archive is not corrupt. I also certainly didn't code any viruses, which makes me think either your download got corrupted or it's Avira's fault for the no icon showing up.

Here are file hashes to compare:


Virustotal brings up 3 false positives:

If a re-download doesn't work, I guess that means you'll have to tell your AV to ignore the file. Let me know how things sort out.

Hashes are ok, I had to add an exception to my AV. That's odd, I'm using other FOV tools with hotkeys and none of them gave me false positives. Ah well.
