machiavelli 38 Posted November 29, 2012 So I changed my field of view and was aware that i'd have to adjust the mildots to make up for it. However, I'm also noticing normal ironsights are way off. Firing from a m16 or any other weapon, the bullets seem to travel upward. Obviously, targets which are within 50m I don't notice anything. However, anything beyond and it's a clear miss on the target, with the bullet going above my aim dot.Has anyome else changed their fov and how do you make up for this? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mos1ey 6301 Posted November 29, 2012 I changed my FOV to the equivalent of about 80, haven't had many problems. I knew this was an issue before I changed it though, probably would have gone higher with it otherwise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BSB Jimmy 360 Posted November 29, 2012 id leave it normal. its not worth it if it screws your aim. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AIRCAV 62 Posted November 29, 2012 I dont know anything about the ins or outs of f o v switching, but it sounds as though you may have gotten the math for the ratio of screen height to screen width wrong. I'd check that first.AC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sutinen 635 Posted November 29, 2012 (edited) I have over (or just) 90 and it's fine for me. Edited November 29, 2012 by Sutinen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

machiavelli 38 Posted November 29, 2012 Sd ammo travels up? I don't specifically recall, but I'm sure at one point I was. However, I've noticed the issue with makrov and 1911 too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AIRCAV 62 Posted November 29, 2012 Nice catch IFC_bill. Yes s d ammo hits above the crosshairs if fired from a non silenced gunAC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sutinen 635 Posted November 29, 2012 It also might be because the zeroing is fixed. I've had this on some ArmA weapons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
