No, ImTardacus, it just doesn't work that way. It would become a very inconsistent game competitively.

Halo 2 runs at a FoV of 70 degrees. Increasing it to 90 degrees causes various problems with the first person models.

whether that is easy to accomplish or not depends on the coding.. second if it is increased at some point or another you will start getting fisheye effect.

i kind of want auto aim in h2v, just cus it evens it out for everyone. i hear ppl saying that anyone can pick up a sniper and get 3+ kills, and frankly thats a damn good thing, it evens the game well

anyway, just hac halo, i have bitterbananna's fov hac, and his third person hac, both work nicely


The FOV hack works nicely, but when I try to use his third person hack the target reticules are way way off. Is there a way to fix this?

the way the camera works (as far as i can tell anyway) is to remove the hud and first person models, move the camera, then draw a mc where you would be.

so, the reticule isnt where your aiming. the 3rd person dont work all that well, as the game isnt intended for 3rd person.

back on topic...

i dont really want to say that this shouldnt be implimented... i am just so goddamn mother-blam!- -blam!-faced tired of people whining and complaining and begging for things for this game.





is there a way to just make a h2v forum... like the h3 forum? id like this forum to get back to where it USED to be... before that monster known as halo 2 was ever mentioned, and all hell broke loose in the maw.

until something improves, i think im not going to bother coming here.

Again, no-one is forcing you to play. Do you have any idea how much code it would require to allow for a modifiable FOV? Remember that this is not Halo 2.5 for the PC. This is Halo 2 for the PC. They're not rebuilding it, they're not re-coding it from scratch, and they certaintly aren't going to add hundreds of thousands of lines of code (for each degree of difference in the FOV, you'd have to have modified FirstPerson ARMs, modified player models, modified gun models, etc) for a feature that:
A. Hardly anyone would use.
B. Isn't actively employed by any other game developer.
C. Isn't native to Halo2.

Again, no-one is making you play this game. You choose to play it. If you don't enjoy your playing experience, then I hereby formally apologize to you and suggest that you choose to play something else.


Well, bitterbannana coded a program to make HPC have an adjustible FOV. It didn't need fixed player models at all. Also, the aditude you have it completly retarded. The, "Go away if you don't like it" thing. Bungie should listen to its community. The only thing they listen to their community about is matchmaking playlists. When someone suggests weapons and stuff shishka or acronos comes in and says, "You will use what we put in the game." and, "We make the game the way we like it. No matter what others say." Thats basically what they are telling us all. Anyways, Maybe not an adjustible FOV but atleast a permenate 80-90 degree one. Halo2 gives me a headache because it looks like you are zoomed into a sniper while you paly the game.
