Field of view (FOV)[edit]

Advantage Game contains field of view slider in menu. Users can set field of view from 70° to 110°.
Disadvantage This setting is saved in binary autosave file which prevent from easily tweaking this value.

Fix FOV fine tweaking

  1. Go to %USERPROFILE%\My Games\Magrunner\YoshiGame\Config\
  2. Open file YoshiInput.ini in text editor.
  3. Locate section [Engine.PlayerInput] and add this line:
    Bindings=(Name="XXX",Command="FOV YYY")
    where XXX is name of your desired key and YYY is your desired field of view value.

Notes

Information This will break ingame zoom command so you need to create your own. See Zoom fix below.
Information You need to hit your FOV key every time you start the game or game reverts FOV to its set value.
Information Alternatively you can just use tweaked zoom key instead of dedicated FOV key.
Information For reverting FOV to default value hit original zoom key or create binding with YoshiResetCameraFov command.

Fix Zoom fix

  1. Launch the game, go to keyboard settings and bind zoom command to key which are you not going to use so that you clear your desired zoom key.
  2. Open again file YoshiInput.ini in text editor and locate [Engine.PlayerInput] section.
  3. Look for your desired zoom key and change the line to this:
    Bindings=(Name="XXX",Command="FOV 40 | Onrelease FOV YYY")
    where XXX is name of your desired key and YYY is your desired field of view value.
Information Alternatively you can change 40 to lower value and achieve greater zoom magnification.

High frame rate[edit]

Information Game features frame rate limiter that limits max frame rate to 62 FPS.

Fix Disable frame rate limiter

  1. Go to %USERPROFILE%\My Games\Magrunner\YoshiGame\Config\
  2. Open file YoshiEngine.ini in text editor.
  3. Locate line bSmoothFrameRate=TRUE and change it to FALSE.
