The Haunted: Hells Reach - FOV and framerate fix

Config files are located in "Documents\My Games\the-haunted-hells-reach\UDKGame\Config"

To fix the FOV

FOV settings can be found in "UDKGame.ini". My settings are as follows but you may prefer something different.

[HauntedGame.TH_CamMode_Default]
DefaultFOV=100

[HauntedGame.TH_CamMode_Aimed]
DefaultFOV=75

[HauntedGame.TH_CamMode_Sprinting]
DefaultFOV=100

[HauntedGame.TH_CamMode_Monster]
DefaultFOV=100

-----

To Unlock the framerate

in UDKEngine.ini

change both instances of "bSmoothFrameRate" to false.

The depth of field effect is quite overdone in this game, so you might want to turn that off too, in "UDKEngine.ini", change DepthOfField=True to false

You may want to set these files as "read only" once you have all in game settings to your liking as I've had them reset to defaults before.

Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon 60fps fix

All credit to jackfuste at WSGF for this fix

Download and install HxD (it's free) - http://mh-nexus.de/en/hxd/

Start it up and open EDF-IA.exe (location: Steam\steamapps\common\earth defense force insect armageddon).

Scroll down to the line 00024BA0 and change the values "54 24 24" to "D1 8B D1" and save

I did ask him if it was possible to make it run at 120fps but he never got back to me :D

Again, all credit to jackfuste at wsgf for this fix. It's not my work, I just took a look at his replacement file, saw what he had changed and made a note so that it could reapplied when the game was patched.

The Binding of Isaac - Joy2key profile

This will allow you to play the binding of isaac with a 360 pad

Download and install joy2key (it's free) - http://www.electracode.com/4/joy2key/JoyToKey%20English%20Version.htm

Download my isaac profile here - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/14326828/binding%20of%20isaac.cfg (right click and "save link as" if it's loading as a text file in your browser)

and place it into the root folder of your joy2key installation

Plug in the controller, start up joy2key, select the profile and leave it running while you play the game.

If you want to make your own profile manually, my settings are as follows

First go to "other" and turn on "use axes other than x and y" and set the input threshold to 30%

axis x (<0) - A
axis x (>0) - D
axis y (<0) - W
axis y (>0) - S
axis 3 (<0) - space
axis 3 (>0) - E
button 1 - arrow down
button 2 - arrow right
button 3 - arrow left
button 4 - arrow up
button 6 - Q

left analogue stick for movement, a, b, x and y for firing, left trigger for bomb, right trigger to use item and right bumper for ... for when it tells you to press Q (to use tarot cards and such).

The right stick is also set for shooting in the profile but I recommend you use the face buttons as it works far better :D

Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon FOV fix

Tera - FOV and framerate fix

Unlock the framerate

Navigate to "TERA\Client\S1Game\Config"

open up the file "S1Engine.ini", and change

bSmoothFrameRate=TRUE

to

bSmoothFrameRate=FALSE

and save

-----

Fix the FOV

Navigate to "TERA\Client\S1Game\Config"

open up the file "S1Input.ini"

underneath the line "bEnableMouseSmoothing=true" (you may want to change that to false while you're in there :D ) add the line

Bindings=(Name="x",Command="fov 100")

(make sure there is no ; at the start of the line like there are with the lines underneath it.

and save

When you're in game, pressing x will change the fov to your desired value.

Here's a video showing the difference between the default fov of 60 and 100
