How to Change Dead Space 3 Field of view (FOV)

By ⚔️ ²⁶Ž ⏂ Ṛ³⁵ 🐉

How to Change Dead Space 3 Field of view (FOV)

Edit config file to change FOV

Open %LOCALAPPDATA%\EA Games\Dead Space 3\system.txt
or
C:\Users\Computer Name\AppData\Local\EA Games\Dead Space 3

1. Search for the line Window.FOVScale
2. Change the value from 1.00000000 to a higher one (default FOV is around 75°).
3. Save your changes.

I put mine to Window.FOVScale = 1.25000000 and it looks good with no fish Bowl effect or Tunnel Vision Effect.
Enjoy this Great game!

Thanks for this. While the default FOV is alright it does feel a bit cramped at times. I will give this a try.

@Mic it's because you're folder is hidden. Follow this link to make it visible.

You should find it now, enjoy the game

Run the game once and exit to see if it creates the file.
