This hack by MacroN gives you the ability to increase field of view in the three retail releases (SoC/CS/CoP) and that one beta release (3120).
From the read-me
Description:
This program switches FOV (field of view) by changing xrgame.dll to the corrected one.
With expanded FOV (Field of View) appears the sense of dynamics at movement, other perception of surrounding, the world seems more volumetric.
It is intended for:
STALKER SHADOW OF CHERNOBYL v1.0003-v1.0006
STALKER build 3120
STALKER CLEAR SKY v1.5.04-1.5.07 (only versions with nodvd installed)
STALKER CLEAR SKY v1.5.10 (only versions with nodvd installed)
STALKER CALL of PRIPYAT v1.6.00
Installation:
Copy it to the game folder.
BACKUP your original xrgame.dll somewhere. In the case of problems just copy it back.
Run fov_switch.cmd
Use the mouse wheel to scroll through all available variants.
In the opened window enter the number from 1 till 46 depending on your game version and chosen FOV.
I do not recommend to create a server/clients in Shadow of Chernobyl by the Internet, using changed xrgame.dll.
It will not be possible to connect. Or it will be necessary to agree in advance that on all computers in a network would be the same xrgame.dll.
But in Clear Sky it's possible to connect by internet with the machines which have not this patch.
You can choose from
Default (67.5-SoC/CS|55-CoP), 75, 83, 85, and 90 for all builds.
Screens (different resolutions and locations; but changes are apparent (a.k.a. - being lazy))
16:10 | 1680x1050 | Vanilla
16:10 | 1920x1200 | 90-Degrees
