FOV for advanced users ONLY

If you are going to play with the Depth Hunter game render, now you can do this.

You can change the game FOV (somebody asked us about this feature).
Please find birender.ini and CameraFOV parameter.

You need to download the latest update.

Default FOV is 45. With any FOV > 45 animations can be wrong.

Awesome, thank you !

Fellow divers, look for birender.ini in the install folder. Camera FOV is the vertical angle of vision so you don't have to use big numbers to feel the difference.

Camera FOV = 45 looks like this:

A lower Camera FOV (35-40) feels more "realistic" but also more cramped. You have to move slower to keep track of your environment. In Scuba Kids the scene is closer to you, which helps a lot !
Warning: stay above 30 to avoid a few issues (e.g the radar is off the screen, some items in Scuba Kids can't be clicked on).

A higher Camera FOV (55-65) is more comfortable for FPS players who are used to move fast and look around a lot. You will need a keen eye to spot coins and taking good photos is a bit tricky (need to move & zoom more than usual). Hidden objects in Scuba Kids look very small/far, too. If you feel the game lacks challenge, this is the right setting for you !

Camera FOV = 60 looks like this:
