Add permanent cl_fov
In the current version of Portal 2, cl_fov <fov> setting persists only for the current map session, meaning that if you reload or change the map, the setting will be restored to it's original value 90.
Having cl_fov to be permanent for at least the whole game session would be nice.
Of course, not an urgent fix, but I know that many people might be interested in it.
Your big fan :)
Omg please, I've been waiting for this all my life. Would be better to have a menu options tho... Right?
The only solution I can think of would be to add cl_fov <fov> to every keybind you have.
The other solution is to use the new feature in SAR, but even tho, it just execute a cl_fov at the first frame of the map session. So it registers the
Lol. What's the sar command tho? I would like to get that one :D
https://github.com/NeKzor/SourceAutoRecord/releases its in the nightly builds iirc, install that and you should be able to find it. probably use "find fov" to find the command ingame.
there's also a few actions in co-op that reset the fov, i think when you or your partner finishes an emote animation it sets the fov back to 90. it's real annoying
this would be a very appreciated feature by me :+1:
The fact that this message appears in the console when loading maps:
Setting cl_fov to 90.000000 and cl_viewmodelfov to 50.000000
implies that forcing the FOV to 90 is an intentional behavior, which is pretty stupid. This should definitely be changed/removed.
This has to do with splitscreen I think, it switches the FOV depending on the splitscreen configuration (vertical/horizontal in 4:3 and 16:9). We could probably add a separate cvar for user customizable FOV (or reuse fov_desired?) which then has multipliers applied to it for splitscreen, instead of using fixed values.
Oh and if/when this is added, it should be exposed in the panorama options menu
