Setting the FOV to 110 makes the pipboy very hard to use. Any solutions / mods?
Just what it says. The pipboy is so tiny I struggle to read it lol I don't want to give up my 110 FOV though. Are there any good pipboy mods that aren't really dependent on the FOV to fill the screen or some other mod that would solve this problem?

Use custom camera mod to change them separately

lol doctor doctor bending my wrist so the backs of my fingers can touch my forearm, well, that hurts alot!

Why in Great Satan's unholy name do you want 110 FOV?! that's just overkill even on 21:9 ultrawides. Even 92-94 is too much. Go look at Trueby9's screenshots (the old defacto standard mod when ultrawides were new) look at the parallax distortion of everything outside the middle 1/3rd of the screen at 105... and you want 110? Are you sure? Really??

I have that installed. It doesn't have any camera setting related to the Pipboy that I can see.

Yep. I have no problem whatsoever with how the game looks at 110. I've played several games on higher FOVs than that.

EDIT no problem except for the Pipboy lol

How dare you play a game with an FOV higher than someone else its so barbaric. You should play it at 75 FOV masterrace like that other guy he knows what he's talking about clearly. /s

lol for real. Might as well play it on console if I can't even crank that FOV up.

The only thing I know of is when you right-click while using your pip-boy it zooms in a little bit. I use 95 FOV and it's usually good enough after that. I'm not sure if you've already tried that though.

when you set the fov with the console enter this: FOV 80 110
the first number is fov for you pipboy and gun models and the second is your actual fov

Sometimes I watch people playing with fov like this

And I want to vomit because it's so ridiculously compressed and wobbly at the edges. Like dude you don't need to pretend you're going 900 miles an hour. You're in a post apoc ruin. Y'ain't goin anywhere fast, dial that crap back a bit...

Bonus points - it's not supposed to run well at that fov, witness your issues with UI and pipboy.

it runs perfectly at 32:9 with 110 and 100 fov

i will try to change the weapon fov at 80 to see if it makes the pip boy better

using flawlesswidescreen and other mods, especially the one unlocking graphics perfs

Oooooh, really?? I thought I was typing in the FOV for third and first person.

I'll try that when I get home, thanks.

For anyone else that has this problem, the solution I found was a mod called "FOV Slider and Player Height." Has a lot of customization regarding the FOV / gun model / Pipboy and so on.

Some people enjoy an unrealistic and distorted view. I say let them. You can still make fun of them of course.

It does lend more credence to the whole 'is the pc a synth' thing :D
