Quake 4 - Change FOV

[THRobinson]

Grabbed Quake4 off the shelf, have not played it in years, and I think when I did play it I was running barely better than recommended specs, that was on a DualCore. My Core2Quad (older but better than DualCore) should run the game nicely.

So, installed it, went into the cfg file, changed it to

seta r_customHeight "1050"
seta r_customWidth "1680"
seta r_mode "-1"
seta r_aspectRatio "2"

Runs smooth, maxed out... but a bit... fisheyed. is there a way to adjust the field-of-view so I can decrease it 10-20 degrees?

When in the game press " Alt+Ctrl+~ " to get into the command console.

Type " g_fov 85 " and enter. Default FOV is 90, dropping to 85 seemed to make it better for me on a 16:10 monitor running 1680x1050.
