WideScreenFoV=1 vs. SANs or Other FOV Mods
« on: June 17, 2014, 10:27:17 AM »

IL2 4.12.2 introduced the config.ini parameter:  WideScreenFoV=1

With this param, windscreen display is now available for IL2.  I have gone triple head with my IL2 and found that I do not need SANs or other FOV mods to run IL2.  Thus, wanted to check in if others have found benefit from SANs or other FOV mods in the skies of 4.12.2?

I am using nvidia surround on three 42 inch TVs. The unmodded 4.12 gives me a reasonable FOV, but I use the "FOVmod" which offers a much wider field of view. The main issue for me is that the menus are stretched across all three screens, which makes them very hard to read and use. There was a perfect solution to this with the "Ecran wide" mod, which worked a charm in 4.10. placing the menu screens in a 4:6 box in the middle of the center screen, while the game itself played at 5760 x 1080. This mod does not work for 2.12 and we need a solution for the nvidia / triple head users. Has anyone found a solution to this?

This is an old thread but the Widescreen=1 does not seem to do anything with triples, running in NVidia Surround.
