First Person View in Ship
OK, there's something wrong with First Person cockpit view.
I can't see the entire console like I used to, such as the X,Y coordinates to the left etc.

Instead, it's like the cockpit is "Zoomed in" and I'm not seeing the full view anymore.
This is with the exact same Graphic and View settings as before...

You can hold ALT to use the cockpit view.
It only zooms out when you are flying faster.

There should be "Field of View" somewhere in options, try to change the value?

I know I can use ALT, but the default view used to allow me to see EVERYTHING.

The screenshot looks like the default round cockpit view, when standing still.

Do as this guy says.

OK, looks like you might be right.
I have screenshots of the starter ship cockpit long before the WPII patch and the view was the same.

I guess I've been using other ships and sentinel ships for so long in other playthroughs that I forget.

I guess it's just the starter ship that has a cramped view, because here's the view from other ships I've gotten in previous games.

As I said in my initial post...

Apparently the cramped view is the default for the starter ship, because I have old screenshots of it, and it's the same.

That's the way it's always been for me, and it's why I don't particularly like fighter cockpits. I really wish they would swap the comms and shield displays. Pretty sure almost nobody looks at the shield monitor and instead looks in the upper-right for that information.

The comms display is way more important, nothing like a surprise pirate attack because you couldn't see the warning...

Go to: SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\No Man's Sky\Binaries\SETTINGS
And open file "TKGRAPHICSSETTINGS.MXML"
Then locate the line:: <Property name="FoVInShip" value="100" />
(Change the value number to whatever you want)

Current highest value ingame is 120, if that is to low you can raise it up as high as you want,

Example:
<Property name="FoVInShip" value="150" />
Do be aware that if you enter the camera settings in the game menu, it will reset this change.
You can put the file as "Read Only" aslong as you are happy with your current graphics settings. (They will revert back to the files settings after a relaunch of the game)
