In addition, as the game is patched, it may stop this FOV fix from working, so you may need to update the widescreen fixer program in the event that happens.Īdditional note about the security concerns involved with Widescreen Fixer (based on the comments): You can always just remove the Widescreen Fixer directory if you don't like the use this. Simply hit the key to turn it on again to turn it off when back at the menu screen, or exit the game and do not run Widescreen fixer this time. Since it is turned on via the "Widescreen Fixer" program, it is easy enough to disable if you decide you don't like it. From what I can tell most of the artifacts have been corrected since my initial answer to this question. It makes quite the difference! I haven't had much time to test if this creates graphical artifacts or not.

The field of view set to "90" through the widescreen fixer at 1920x1080 with my character standing at the exact same spot looking in the same direction: Here are some in game shots of my rather low level mage, with and without this fix: As soon as you start moving around you should see the field of view move out.

In the dropdown list you should see Kingdoms of Amalur listed:Īt this point, click the standard "config" wheel to the right of the drop-down:Ĭhange the game version to the Steam 1.0.1 option (the most recent patch) if you are using Steam, and the Origin 1.0.1 option if you are using Origin, and then select your field of view options. Now, open the "Widescreen Fixer.exe" in the main widescreen fixer directory. You will need a program like winrar or 7-zip to open and extract the files. There is no additional plugin you need to install or forum threads to monitor.įirst, you need to go to this site and download the program found there, called widescreen fixer.
