FOV Increase Without The Fish Eye Effect?

[LegendarySense]

Does anyone have the idea how to increase the FOV without ruining the visuals? In-game, you can set the FOV from 60 to 75, but even 75 is too much, the fish eye effect is terrible. You can go for higher values using the console, but that makes it much worse, obviously. Is there any mod or other solution for that?

Check the LOD settings as well.

Wow, you wrote just at the moment when I closed the game! :D Give or take 10 seconds. Anyway, this article seems very useful, I'll try these settings and see how the game will run then. Although, I didn't see any mention of FOV, in the article itself or the comments. Maybe I overlooked something, or maybe you confused this link for another one?

I believe you can't project wider angle from 3d space onto a finite 2d plane without distorting the perspective. It's just against the laws of mathematics, optics, geometry or whatever. The only solution is using ultrawide display

Every game starts to look bad if your FOV is too high, that's just how it works...
Keep in mind that this game uses a vertical FOV setting, so 75 is 107 in horizontal (at 16:9 aspect ratio).

Yeah, but in KCD you just go a tiny bit above the minimum and it looks terrible, while I guess FC5 would look OK with a 107 H-FOV. I don't remember the game so much, but it should be so.
Besides, the lowest V-FOV in KCD (60) should be 91 in horizontal, but it definitely doesn't look like it. Maybe it's just me, I don't know..

I think I've set mine to 110 horizontal, looks fine. Dunno.

75 looks absolutely nothing like fisheye.

75 V-FOV looks absolutely terrible. I was looking at my mother right at the beginning of the game. She looked normal when she was in the center, but when she was on the left or right of the screen, she was twice as big, it was very noticeable. But I guess it depends on what monitor/TV you have. I have a 32" QHD monitor, how about you?

You have a 16:9 monitor, 75 looks best regardless.
