Why Adjust FOV in FiveM?
Customizing your FOV can make a huge difference in your gameplay experience, especially if you prefer a more immersive first-person view. Higher FOVs can reduce tunnel vision, giving you a wider look at your surroundings, which can be helpful in both roleplay and combat situations.
By following these steps, you can set up a comfortable, personalized view in FiveM’s first-person mode for a better overall experience. Enjoy the game with your custom FOV, and have fun. ;)
