Overview

Press ~ to open the console

Comments

Press ~ to open the console

And enter these commands with your desired values

cl_FOV – The main field of view

r_DrawNearFOV – the field of view for nearby objects (held weapon, etc)

pl_movement.power_sprint_targetFOV – The field of view while power sprinting

They all have a default value of 60 [thats wrong, its even lower] 55 degrees (yikes)

You can also paste your set of commands in the system.cfg file located the the games directory

To access go to steam/steamapps/common/crysis3 and find system.cfg

Put in your commands and save the file

ENJOY

(These are the commands I use personally for NO mouse smoothing and HIGH FOV)
i_mouse_smooth 30
i_mouse_accel 0
pl_movement.power_sprint_targetFOV 100
r_DrawNearFOV 90
cl_FOV 100

thanks a lot for this, these few lines made the game WAY better for me.

I don't know if this is new, but the console caps cl_fov at 80, and its the same with Crysis 1 and 2.
So I'm using pl_movement.power_sprint_targetFOV at 80 too
I've tried different r_DrawNearFOV values but 90 is perfect.

Thanks for this guide

Didnt even get hard from this guide

it doesnt feel like 130... it feels limited af. i think theres a hard cap sadly

@O.G. FЯEAꓘ 100 FOV (what you use) in this game is rougly equal to 130 degrees in most other games. Use this to calculate horizontal to vertical: https://themetalmuncher.github.io/fov-calc/

sorry i dont remember wher i read that it was 60 by default, ill correct the guide. thx bro

MrEWhite 7 Jun, 2020 @ 1:39pm

Reminder this is vertical FOV. 60 degrees is around 90 degrees horizontal. 74 degrees is 106 horizontal (which is was CSGO uses). The default FOV is also 55 degrees vertical FYI.

It works with MP just fine, no ban or anything

the [author] 6 Jun, 2020 @ 5:49pm

i wouldnt know and to be honest i wouldnt attempt it because i dont know how potentially malicious EA's anticheat is. dont risk the game ban bruh
