clar fongenuine question: how many people who set FOV in games actually know, what it means or how it's calculated, and its shortcomings? the way we configure FOV in <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/3dGraphics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#3dGraphics</a> is an <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#accessibility</a> issue.FOV, or the field-of-view, is the angle that you can see in front of you. except, not really. you see, there are actually two FOVs: vertical and horizontal. in basically every case where you set the FOV in a game, the vertical FOV is automatically calculated from the horizontal based upon the screen ratio, and the horizontal is the one you setthis is very easy for the game to calculate, but rather hard for a person to calculate by hand. you can't simply divide the FOV by the screen ratio, since that's not actually the ratio of what you see through the monitor.you see, in order to truly compute the correct FOV, we have to imagine as if the player is floating inside a sphere where the corners of the monitor just barely touch the edge of the sphere. cutting out a hole in the sphere using these four corners will let you see outside the sphere, but since the sphere is curved, it warps the hole and it's no longer rectangular. in fact, because the horizontal ratio is bigger than the vertical ratio, more warping will occur horizontally. the exact amount is difficult to compute, which is why we don't ask players to do this.as you can see, FOV does not scale linearly according to the aspect ratio. so, if you have a wider monitor, you can't really eyeball the amount you need to increase the FOV. in fact, unless you bump up the horizontal FOV enough to keep the vertical FOV the same, you might actually be able to see less of the screen vertically than you could without a large monitor. this is… a mess, and we shouldn't be expecting players to actually perform all this advanced trig in their heads to figure it out.like… the reason why ultrawide monitors are curved is twofold, actually. in addition to just being easier to look at, it also reduces the amount of warping needed to match the FOV you'd get from a regular widescreen monitor.like… if we want a truly accurate FOV for a game, you need:<ol><li>the physical size of the monitor</li><li>the physical distance between the person viewing it and the monitor</li><li>the aspect ratio of the monitor</li><li>the curvature of the monitor</li></ol>which… we can actually get 1 & 3 via EDID, the Extended Display Identification Data. #4 should be accessible to EDID, but, it's not, and that's actually something the hardware industry should be embarrassed of.the entire reason why FOV is configurable in games is because #2 varies, and no matter what, it's not something hardware will easily be able to do by itself. maybe in the future we'll be able to use IR webcams or something to capture the distance between the viewer and the display, but even then, it seems reasonable to be able to configure that.like, the entire reason why FOV is just configurable as an angle is because we sort of assume that most of the variables have been constant (monitor size, aspect ratio, and curvature) until recently. but, they're not, and it's ridiculous to expect someone to juggle all those parameters by themself.so… to recap. FOV is this extremely complicated concept that is used internally in the maths of 3D graphics to determine what to display, but it's long surpassed that point. a half-decent workaround might be to configure FOV normalised to a 16:9 ratio (i.e. 90° FOV means the equivalent vertical FOV from a 16:9 display with 90° horizontal FOV, then the horizontal is calculated from that) but… you can already see from that explanation it's not adequate.pushing this extremely complicated calculation onto individuals without the full knowledge of how it works is, bad.

tontonHi I am a french 3d artist (mostly animation and "generalist") using <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/blender3d" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#blender3d</a> a lot.
