Search for this :

[HotKey viewSet]
Alt MouseLeft=DashBoard
End=fov70
PageDown=fov90
Delete=fov30
Mouse5=FOV
MouseMiddle=Rotate
F10=StartStop
MouseRight=Len
MouseLeft=Offset
NumPad/=Reset

you can change the keys FOV values there.

Did you try this yourself ? Because, guess what, it doesn't work.

"fov70" is not a variable you can edit, it's a fixed value, like "Rotate".

There is no easy way to fix these FOV levels, and I sure hope they fix that at some point.

I did try, and it seems me work ... just placebo.

You are right, that are fixed values names.

Sorry for the misunderstood.

I started a thread for edit FOV and Offset values :

I'd love to be able to map fov to an axis to have smooth zoom in and out. I run an eyefinity setup and every time I start im pressed against the gunsight and have to use the key+mouse to pull back. Much easier to just flick a rotary on my hotas to the proper fov level.

You can use JoyToKey to get incremental FOV/Zoom in CoD:

http://www.electracode.com/4/joy2key...%20Version.htm

First set up the buttons you want to use to change FOV in JoyToKey.
Set up one for 'Mouse up' and one for 'Mouse down'.

Launch CoD and go to controls and assign each of the two buttons to their own instance of 'Hold to Adjust FOV'. Voilá.

Same procedure to set up an axis, but you will have to assign a key or button to hold down while moving the axis.

I posted something, then I saw that it was already there.

both from joy2key and control settings screen please....

cheers

OK, I know that this suggestion has already been posted, I'm just trying to make it easier to set up with a step-by-step instruction set:

- Go to your controls page, Keys tab, Camera Section
- One of the first key bindings from the top is called 'Adjust FoV' or something like that. By default it's bound to 'mouse5', whatever that might be...
- Assign a different key to 'Adjust FoV' (I use Q because I never used it for anything else...)
- Save your settings, start a flight.
- Now hold down your 'Adjust FoV' key (Q, in my case), and at the same time move the mouse up and down to incrementally adjust FoV (no need to hold any mouse key down, just hold your keyboard key and move the mouse)

[Assigning mouseUP and mouseDOWN to keys is unnecessary IMO. One key for Adjust FoV + Moving the mouse up/down does the trick pretty well]

I know how "mouse movement FOV" works mate :), thanks for your reply though.

What I want to do is setup two buttons on my stick to automatically do FOV+ (and FOV-) without moving mouse - but just by pressing one button on my joystick. So I need a detailed instructions how to do what Luffe did in this post.

thanks in advance

Ok do the following steps.

1) In Joy2key select one button for mouse up and another for mouse down. let's say button A and button B

2) Adjust the sensivity (mouse inputs for every keystroke)

3) goto cod, controller settings, adjust camera

4) asign one instance of "hold to adjust fov" to button A

5) mantaining selected the same option "hold to adjust fov" click on new to open another instance. Assign it to Button B

The idea is that key2joy is sending mouse inputs, and COD uses the same buttons for sending at the same time the keystroke "hold to adjust fov"


Hope it makes sense now, I dont have the english menues but I think you got the idea. Thanks to Luffe for the original idea
