fov - sensitivity

Hi my dear xfire community <3

As far as I know, changing your fov also changes your sensitivity a bit. Does any1 happen to know what do you have to do to maintain the sensitivity while changing fov? I remember it had something to do with tangens function ><

TIA.

changing fov does not change your sens

placebo
only way i can switch fovs without noticing is by using fovx/fovy method ...
Parent
wot method is that?
Parent
It's just a percieved change: things are bigger on your screen, the same distance before the fov change and after moves your cursor further relative to the physical size of the screen, which your brain then percieves as a difference in sensitivity.
Parent
It's probably because you have slight more FPS at cg_fov 90 / At fov 110 everything seems to go slower.

And as Meez said, placebo.
No way man, higher fov -> everything goes faster :E

SCATMAN CROTHERS LOL

Yea doesnt change it, only reason people did change sens witha fov changer was because a lower sens is better for long distance.
Thanks In Advance ;(
If you have fov 90, sens 1 and you want to change to fov 100 it should be =

90/100 = 0.9 * sensitivity = 0.9* 1= 0.9
100/90 = 1.111 * sensitivity = 1,111*1= 1.111

i basically just divide fovX / fovY or vica versa, too lame to think i guess :)
Oh king of kings, enlight us with your knowledge once again
Parent
I so hate math :) Thank god its easier when you have a clue about what the result should be :')
Parent
You still do the same amount of degrees across your pad though, in any fov :|
Parent
but the feeling changes, and it doesnt when i use the fov formula
Parent
Maybe someday you will have your own stamp :p

Your might want to try this one Overshizzle:

Someone is using Fov 105 and Sens 5, he want’s to use Fov 90 what should his sens be?

newsens = tan(90/2) / tan(105/2) * oldsens
Parent
looks interesting. but i'm bad at maths!
Parent
90 fov & 4.75 sens FTW.
yes its true, anything else is bs
Parent
there was such a calculator for quake3 engine games... cant find it though
1800 dpi 1000 hz

in deathadderdriver x axis on 10 y axis 2

//[fov toggle]

set far "echo ^dF^7ar combat;set crosssensitoggle vstr near;cg_drawgun 0; cg_fov 90;cg_drawcrosshair 5;cg_crosshairsize 33;sensitivity 0.5;cg_crosshaircolor red"
set near "echo ^dC^7lose combat;set crosssensitoggle vstr far; cg_drawgun 0; cg_fov 112;cg_drawcrosshair 5;cg_crosshairsize 39;sensitivity 0.55;cg_crosshaircolor cyan"
set crosssensitoggle "vstr near"
bind CTRL "vstr crosssensitoggle"
