Change Bombsight FoV for UltraPack 3.4.2.23
« on: July 09, 2024, 02:53:02 PM »

THIS MOD IS DESIGNED TO WORK WITH AND ONLY WITH UltraPack 3.4 PATCH 2 HOTFIX 23.

A long time gripe for me about IL-2 is that you can't change your camera's field of view in bombsight views. This means that for widescreen users, for whom the bombsight view is zoomed in to the point that the whole bombsight display isn't in view, it is completely and utterly impossible to zoom out. This makes many Russian bombsights simply unusable.

This mod changes bombsights using a method of find-and-replace with the parts of planes' cockpit code that disables FoV changing when switching to a bombsight view. It is made from decompiled UltraPack 3.4.2.23 classes, which may have decompiler errors in them, which is why this mod is in the WIP section, and should not be considered as a stable, fully working mod that you should expect not to have any issues with.

Despite this, after using it for a while, I haven't run into any game-breaking issues yet, just a few bombsights it doesn't seem to work with, so I feel it might be the time to release it publicly, to let other people enjoy it, and see if anyone has a different experience.

There might be a BAT version eventually, if I get around to making it. Not sure.
