  1. Go to the configuration file(s) location.
  2. Open CustomGameSettings.ini in a text editor.
  3. Modify the value of FOV= as preferred (for example, 1.26 will result in 133° horizontal).
The default range is 0.000000 to 1.000000.
The converted horizontal FOV value will appear in the game.
Increase FOV by setting its values to vertical in a config file[5]
  1. Go to the configuration file(s) location.
  2. Open Engine.ini in a text editor.
  3. Add the following lines:
[/Script/Engine.LocalPlayer]
AspectRatioAxisConstraint=AspectRatio_MaintainYFOV
Make sure to lower the in-game value to account for it being vertical after the modification.

Notes

  1. Unreal Engine 4 engine build: 4.19.2.0[1]
  2. 2.0 2.1 When running this game without elevated privileges (Run as administrator option), write operations against a location below %PROGRAMFILES%, %PROGRAMDATA%, or %WINDIR% might be redirected to %LOCALAPPDATA%\VirtualStore on Windows Vista and later (more details).
  3. 3.0 3.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/738520/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (738520) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
