{{ii}} Since update 0.6.0.0 you can change FOV of all the 'Internal' cameras using Numpad 9/3 or Buttons A/B on the Xbox Controller.
 
 
{{Fixbox|1=
 
{{Fixbox/fix|FOV Editing|ref={{cn|date=September 2016}}}}
 
Vehicle camera settings, including FOV, are currently set per vehicle.
 
For the external camera:
 
# Navigate to your installation path.
 
# From the installation folder, navigate further to <code>vehicles/vehiclename</code>
 
# Open <code>vehiclename.jbeam</code> with your text editor of choice.
 
# Navigate to the <code>"cameraExternal"</code> section of the jbeam file.
 
# Edit the <code>"fov"</code> property value to the desired external FOV, save the file, and reload the vehicle with CTRL+R ingame. The changes should take effect immediately.
 
For the internal views:
 
# Navigate to the <code>"camerasInternal"</code> section of the jbeam file. In some vehicles, this may be located in another file, such as <code>vehiclename_body.jbeam</code>.
 
# Find the lines that look like this: <code>[0.0, -0.6, 1.65, 75, "f3rr","f3ll","f2rr","f2ll","f6rr","f6ll"]</code>. These lines usually have comments, headed by <code>//</code>, which describe which camera angle they define.
 
# Edit the fourth value to the desired FOV, save the file, and reload the vehicle with CTRL+R ingame. The changes should take effect immediately.

Notes

  1. File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/284160/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (284160) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
