Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 by Infinity Ward.
Field of View Changer[1drv.ms] by AgentRev.

How do I use the field of view changer?
The field of view changer by AgentRev is an extremely simple tool to use. Simply run the tool, select either Single Player or Multiplayer, input the field of view you want and click start game.

The tool also allows hotkeys which you can use to change the FOV or reset it to default while the game is running. This way you can easily find the FOV that's right for you without having to quit the game and reboot just to see the changes.
Can I get banned for using this field of view changer?
You cannot get banned for using the field of view changer. Myself and many others have played this game for many hours with this field of view changer and none have gotten banned. Infinity Ward confirmed they weren't banning players using the field of view changer back in 2012, they also confirmed Valve won't ban for using it either.



There was reports of users getting banned for setting the field of view way too high, but it wasn't at a playable field of view anyway, so try to keep the field of view below 100. I'd recommend 80/90.
What does changing my field of view actually do?
Changing your field of view means you can see more on your screen. By default the game is at 65 field of view, which for many PC players is way too low.

When you increase your field of view, everything on your screen becomes more visible and it looks a lot nicer. You can see comparison shots below.

On the left is the default 65 field of view. On the right the field of view is set to 90.

just read this & have not used this Fov changer.
yet I have had my progress re-set to zero.
all progress gone, like when 1st installed the game.
this has happened many times, at very varied intervals.
so as the auther TJGM said, the Fov changer can't be the reason.

I'm almost positive it's a hacker in the lobby doing it, it's not the mod.

game keeps resetting me to lvl 1 , persistent data =11. Any help would be appreciated.

That wasn't done by this, it was done by a hacker in your lobby. Stop spreading misinformation.

BEWARE! After using this exe one time for a couple of matches, the next time i went on the game it said ''Your data is from an old version of the game. You must reset your rank to continue'', forcing me to reset my levels and completely wipe all of my data. Do not use this mod. Just stick with the classic FOV and pretend youre in 2011 again.

Hello, does anyone know if MODERN WARFARE 3 can be played with any controller, or if it only has a keyboard and mouse setup.
Thank you.
