Still No Fix to Campaign FOV?

[RickysCoffey]

Playing the campaign with low FOV gave me a giant headache so I've been doing the ol "stretch the windowed mode" thing. Is there any value, setting or anything I can do to change the Campaign FOV.

Hey,

It won't be fixed unfortunately. You can try to change the FOV in SP by using Flawless Widescreen, check this post: http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/forum/threadview/2955065221838742838/1/

Shoot, I didn't know it still worked, thanks. Also, is there any FOV fixes for Hardline?

Oh, found it, it's the Cinematic Tools by Berdu

Is this also the case for BF 1 and V? No FOV in single player? If so, I'll need to get refund, I can't play it at current FOV on an ultrawide display, it causes nausea.

No, in those games the fov works in single player.

ok thanks, good to hear, I will proceed with download.

Unbelievable. Imagine making a fov slider and it doesn't work in SP.

It was probably just a guide on using Flawless Widescreen to change FOV in singleplayer. Haven't tried it myself but this person says it works:

That being said I would imagine part of the reason the ingame FOV slider doesn't affect singleplayer is because there are unique animations or models that were only designed for the default FOV. That should only lead to visual glitches tho and not anything that affects gameplay.

Forum thread has been deleted, for anyone still looking for this, here's the program to use https://flawlesswidescreen.org/

There's no fix lol because it's EA. I don't know why but either they don't give a damn or that using a fov changer "might?" break some scenes.

For those that want to know how to change FOV for BF4 in 2022 here are the steps.

-Download flawlesswidescreen from its site, use the 64 bit portable version.
-Open the program, skip everything about plugins.
-On the left side window you will see names of games, select BF 4, this presumably also works for BF3 because the name's there as well.
-You will see the slider, set it all the way to the right +33 (I use this one you can use whichever)
-Launch the game and campaign, you can change FOV on fly.
- Set the slider to the right and left, you will see the FOV changing.
- The weapon model FOV won't change, that's normal.

This is really weird because you could change the FOV even in Battlefield 3. Really not sure why this is the case for BF4's campaign.
