Customize first-person and aiming field of view

The field of view for first-person and weapon aiming can be customized.

Customize first-person and aiming field of view angles

🎯 Module Introduction

This mod allows you to customize the first-person field of view (FOV) of Red Dead Redemption 2, including when aiming your weapon! The default setting increases the first-person FOV to 105 (horizontal) / 73 (vertical), and the FOV when aiming remains the same as when not aiming.

It has a similar function to another module **Custom First Person FOV**, but the key improvement of this module is that it also increases the FOV when aiming, while the original module deliberately maintains the same aiming FOV as the basic setting of the game.

🔧 Custom configuration

If you are not satisfied with the default 105 (horizontal) FOV, you can modify it by following the steps below (Notepad++ is recommended):

• **Modify basic FOV**:
• Open the file `lml\Custom First Person FOV\data\cameras.ymt`.
• Jump to line **19447**.
• Change the value `73` (which is the vertical FOV) to the value you want.

• **Synchronized Weapon FOV**:
• Open the file `lml\WickedHorseMan\Gameplay\IronSight\firstperson.meta`.
• Use `Ctrl+F` to turn on the find and replace function.
• Enter: `73` in the "Find" box.
• In the "Replace" box enter: **The same value you set in the previous step**.
• Click Replace All.
• **(Since version 1.2)** Repeat this replacement for all other `.meta` files under the `IronSight` folder.

• Save all modified files and then start the game to take effect.

💡 For players who love to play

In the `cameras.ymt` and `firstperson.meta` files, you can also find more parameters that can be adjusted, such as FOV in different postures (standing, crouching), FOV offset when aiming, and even the model position of each weapon in first person!

Adjusting these values ​​can take a while, but it's worth it for players looking for the ultimate in customization.
