Advanced Tweaking (Disable blur. Increase fov)
Someone figured out that you no longer need a program to extract the .pak files. Adjust them. Then repack them using the same program.

Now all you ned to do is make your own user.cfg file and put it in the same folder as the exe

Here are some commands
r_UseEdgeAA = 0 (Disables FXAA anti-aliasing which removes the games major blur)
r_DrawNearFoV = 75 (this changes fov)
r_MotionBlur = 0 (Disables motion blur)


here is a full list of more commands from the guy who discovered this neat trick
(links dead just removed it, i have no idea anymore this was years ago)

To make the user.cfg file i just did a windows search and found any random .cfg file, copied it to desktop, renamed it to user, then opened it and emptied it out and pasted in those commands

CFG is a dummy extension. You can tell by the fact you can successfully edit it with a text editor.
It's just text. No need to look for a specific file type. Just create a text file with the name user.cfg.
And for the love of God, untick the Windows' global folder option "Hide extensions for known file types".
Thanks for the tip though.

did u put a space? i believe u need a space. Is your file a true cfg file? Or is it a txt file you might need to type "folder" into the windows icon area and click "folder options" then click
"always show extensions for known file types". The file you created might be a .txt file in disguise

Yeah I just don't get why game devs don't put in an FOV slider. It's like they just expect PC gamers will be fine with whatever arbitrary FOV they chose. Yeah sure that FOV is fine if people are playing this game on Xbox sitting on a couch. But for PC gamers it's not good enough.

yeah im dealing with fov stuff right now in another game, but luckily it was easy to change.

This thread was quite old before the recent posts, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
