How to change the FOV - ME1/2/3 image 1

Flawless Widescreen[www.flawlesswidescreen.org] has been updated to support FOV of up to 90.

For an even higher FOV and weapon FOV zoom adjustment you'll need to use the methods below

Regular FOV

Mass Effect 1

Backup "Coalesced_INT.bin" located in "Mass Effect Legendary Edition\Game\ME1\BioGame\CookedPCConsole"

Replace the file with the one below:

"Mass Effect 1 Coalesced_INT.bin"[drive.google.com]

Mass Effect 2

Backup "Coalesced_INT.bin" located in "Mass Effect Legendary Edition\Game\ME2\BioGame\CookedPCConsole"

Replace the file with the one below:

"Mass Effect 2 Coalesced_INT.bin"[drive.google.com]

Mass Effect 3

Backup "Coalesced.bin" located in "Mass Effect Legendary Edition\Game\ME3\BioGame\CookedPCConsole"

Replace the file with the one below:

"Mass Effect 3 Coalesced.bin"[drive.google.com]

Usage

The number pad now changes FOV:

0 = 30

1 = 40

2 = 50

3 = 60

4 = 70

5 = 80

6 = 90

7 = 100

8 = 110

9 = 120

Note: This does not change the right click weapon zoom FOV. To do so please follow the section below.

Weapon Zoom FOV

Download Cheat Engine[www.cheatengine.org]

Download the relevant Cheat Table below

"Mass Effect 1 Cheat Table"[drive.google.com]

"Mass Effect 2 Cheat Table"[drive.google.com]

"Mass Effect 3 Cheat Table"[drive.google.com]

Launch the game

Open Cheat Engine

Select the Mass Effect Process

Open the Cheat Table

Click to make the setting active. Double click on Value and change the value.

This needs to be used in conjunction with a low "Regular FOV" otherwise it'll go all fish-eyed. The numbers used will also differ for different resolutions and how much zoom you actually like. Here are my preferences below:

1920x1080 - Number Pad 3 (FOV 60) with Cheat Engine value at 0.0135

3440x1440 - Number Pad 2 (FOV 50) with Cheat Engine value at 0.0120

Please note that this Cheat table also changes the cutscene and dialogue FOV. You should use Flawless Widescreen and lower the "Cinematics FOV Fine adjustment" to fix this:

Coalesced Editing

If you wish to edit and compile your own "Coalesced_INT.bin", you should use this Coalesced Tool[github.com] and Powershell for Mass Effect 1 and 2.

For Mass Effect 3 you can use Wench Coalesced editor[www.nexusmods.com]

Issues

This mod cannot be used in conjunction with other Coalesced.bin mods as you will be overwriting the file.

This can break the galaxy map by making it upside down and more of an issue if you use the weapon zoom FOV fix. This can be alleviated by lowering the value when going into the galaxy map or just learning how to navigate it upside down.
