FOV fixed! Download link inside.
The newest version of the tool "Flawless Widescreen" supports Resident Evil 4 UHD.

FOV Fix:
- Install and launch Flawless Widescreen. https://www.flawlesswidescreen.org/

- Install the Resident Evil 4 plugin and close the program.

- Download the modified "ResidentEvil4.lua" ( https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9noi1aENOaSZmdKeG1ZUmhpeWM/view ).

- Go to the Flawless Widescreen installation folder.
Go into the "\PluginCache\FWS_Plugins\Modules\ResidentEvil4\Dependencies\Scripts\" folder.

- Place the modified "ResidentEvil4.lua" inside that folder and replace the existing file.

- Open Flawless Widescreen and adjust the FOV as desired.


As a Bonus, setting custom Ultra Widescreen Resolution on a 16:9 Monitor is also a good alternative:

Also Flawless Widescreen has to be enabled because it still fixes the HUD on Ultra Widescreen aspect ratio.

Gonna wait for more experienced players to comment on this before i actually do anything.

I'm surprised how well this works. Anyone know how to edit the limit in the application. I can't go higher than 33.

Still looks great though.

This doesn't fix anything, as the FOV was fine as it was! What will change is that you guys will complain about how the game is "so easy"! I won't complain about the use of this "FOV fix" but I will complain when some people want to tell others that the FOV is "broken" which it isn't!

The FOV was set this way because the designers want to make you feel like you are leon! If you want to destroy that design, go ahead! I'll be fine with my "broken fov that gives me headaches"!

So you're allowed an opinion on the games field of view, but because someone else has has a diffrent opinion their stupid?

I allready completed the game back in 2005 on Gamecube, and later on 2 times on the Wii.
FOV was ok when playing on a TV, but on a Monitor where you are sitting very close a higher FOV is much much better for the eyes and also for the experience, so it does fix the game for Monitors.

I play both my Xbone and PC on my Benq monitor... 60/65 FOV really does not bother me when sat at my desk.

Then sit further back instead of having your monitor 4 inches away from your face?! Is this new to you?

If you like the FOV then why are you in this thread? This thread is obviously for those that prefer a higher fov for pc games than those designed for consoles. So please, if the default fov is fine for you then kindly GTFO.

Why would I, I allready completed the game 3 times sitting far away playing on a TV.
Playing the game with real closeup Monitor experience feels fresh and the high FOV optimises it. With this high FOV a good Oculus Rift experience for the future will be possible.
Also playing on a Monitor near with high FOV gives me better immersion than on a bigger TV Screen sitting far away with a low FOV.

I will voice my opinion whether you like it or not, Kindly deal with it! This has nothing to do with "This FOV is obviously for consoles". Why don't you form some arguements instead of pointless rambling and insults?

I already said that I won't complain about people using this fov enhancer but telling people it's broken is something I will defend!

Deal with it? I deal with people like you all the time in these forums, passing their opinion as fact for nothing more than to turn an intersing topic (to those that are interested) into the usual school playground fighting. This thread clearly does not interest you as it's sole purpose is to give an option to those that prefer a higher FOV. Notice that most pc games these days that are also on the consoles have a fov slider? Wonder why?

You like the FOV as it is, and i did when i played this game on Gamecube say 6-7 feet for my tv, but like most games that are console orientated, the FOV is now too low when playing the game 2-3 feet away. If you sit 4 inches away from your screen may i suggest you get your eyes tested.

So please, go away with your unwanted and unwarrented opinions. They are not required or wanted in this thread.

Worst Dreamcast game ever made? Joking right? Not sure why you think there are any farmers in Somerset, sadly, the population of Britain would rather eat cheap imported rubbish negating the need for them anymore a long time ago....

Looks deformed. As if you were watching the game through a peephole. So its more like FOV broken to me than fix. I wonder how it will look like in later parts of the game where the camera stay further back and you see Leon in full body anyway... specially when Ashley are with you.

It has to look deformed because the point is that the sides of your monitor in FPS/TPS are in peripheral vision, your eyes are in the center of the game and the rest has to be like fisheye vision to compensate.
Do some research about FOV and you will understand.
