Default Camera Mod V2 Question.

Just downloaded this mod and have a couple of questions after reading the readme file,

1.What does FOV stand for ?

2. FOV Hi - Cameras.dat or FOV Low Cameras.dat, which of these should be installed, I run 1.4 with some mods.

Thanks guys.

Before anyone asks what "Field of view" is: it is an arc measured in degrees describing the visible area of an observer. Generally in games, FOV is 90 degrees. Higher values produce distorted images but higher depth perception. Human eye FOV is 140 degrees.

This one depends on your preference. I made different versions of the mods for people's own preferences. Myself, I use the one with the low external camera (20 FOV) - I find it gives a much nicer sense of scale to SHIII
