Changing FOV in CoD2

[EvoloZz]

Hey, does anyone know how to change FOV view in CoD2, because "set cg_fov" didn't work for me, cheats are needed to be enabled?

Hmm, I'll have to double check. I forget which dvar it is.

Yea, its cheat protected, but you can do:

		player setClientCvar("cg_fov", "140"); 
	

Also nice effect is to put those cvars into a loop and change it often.


EDIT:

Range is from 1 to 180 in CoD2.

Thanks for help

So i must have cheats enabled? Because that sucks :/

No, just set it by script.

Then that's weird, cause it did not change anything

Well lets explain:
If a player uses /cg_fov he get the message "Cheats are not enabled at this server". If you start an map with cheats (/devmap MAP) then he can use it.
But if you set "self setClientCvar("cg_fov","140");" then it will change WITHOUT cheats enabled.

If you enable cheats: Everyone can use
If you disable cheats: Only script/server can set it

Hope it explains for u.

I know that, but it didn't change the fov even thought i did write it into the script

Did you try it with developer 1 enabled?
self setClientCvar("developer","1");
