GTR2002 FOV

Do any of you guys know how to adjust the FOV in GTR2002?  I activated
the option to have the steering control the left and right looks, so I
can't glance left or right using the buttons on the wheel anymore.
Therefore, I'd like to at least have the side mirror visible in my
***pit view.  The only way that will happen would be to adjust the FOV.

Thanks for any help...

GTR2002 FOV

there is a file called default.cfg in the gtr2002save folder.

it has a section like this :-

PositionOffset=(0.000000, -0.000000, -0.1500000) \\(Left-Right, Up-Down,
Back,Forward)

If you fiddle with the first value you can move side ways to be able to see
the mirror.

As noted, the adjustments can be made in the default.cfg file, but
PositionOffset adjusts the POV, or driver's head position, not the field of
view angle (FOV).  For the incar view find the***pit section that reads:

LocalCam=COCKPIT
{
  Fov=(75.000000, 62.500000)

Adjust the first number to a higher number to widen the FOV, and vice versa.

POV, FOV it's all the same :)

Actually if the OP is having problems seeing a side mirror he may get better
results adjusting POV rather than FOV....or perhaps of a combo of the two.
