FOV slider in game options in Scripting

This allows the player to change their FOV without using the console.

Didn't really take long to figure out. You can learn a little bit by reading the stock menu files.

Step 1:
Once your map is compiled, go to Root\raw\ui, find "options_game_pc.menu", and open it in your preferred text editor.

Step 2:
Go to the bottom of the file. Find this:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

		CHOICE_DDVARALTTEXT_VIS( 25, "@MENU_MATURE", "@MENU_MATURE_REDUCED", when( ( !dvarBool(cg_allow_mature) || INGAME ) && dvarString( "cg_mature" ) == "0" && !dvarBool(ui_multiplayer) ) )

Insert this underneath

Code Snippet

Plaintext

		CHOICE_DVARSLIDER( 26, "Field of View", cg_fov, <initial value>, <minimum value>, <maximum value>, ; )

so that it looks something like this:

Initial value by default is 65. Change if you want, but I recommend leaving it at 65.
Minimum value and maximum value are the minimum and maximum values the player can user. (Duh.) I use 65 and 90. The game can use anything between 1 and 160, but use your common sense.

Save your file. I recommend naming it something like "options_game_pc_MAPNAME.menu" or something, but it's not essential. I'll name mine "options_game_pc_fovtut.menu".

Step 3:
Go into the Launcher and type this into the Fastfile mod.csv:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

menufile,ui/options_game_pc_MAPNAME.menu

Mine looks like this:

Then build mod as usual. Make sure "mod.csv" is selected in the IWD File List.

Step 4:
Test your map.

The images at the top of this post are what it looks like with the settings I used above (65, 65, 90).

Note: If you've disabled the console in your map, for example via the UGX script placer, make sure your new file doesn't overwrite the script placed by UGX. You probably shouldn't have any problems with it.
