📋 About This Mod

UPDATE: *Should* work with latest version of the game. This mod adjusts the rendered viewmodel FOV (weapon FOV) so that it no longer feels like the Character is holding a pistol to his eye.

UPDATE: Due to decisions made by the SCUM development team, this mod will no longer be supported, especially after the 4/29/2026 update. I am terribly sorry to those who enjoyed this mod. Maybe once the developers allow modding again, I'll update and try to get it working again. Thank you for taking your time and trying this mod. Should still work with the latest version of the game ever since they re-enabled mod support.

Description

This mod adjusts the viewmodel FOV to pull hand-held objects away from the players field of view focus area. You will now be able to see more weapon detail, including full swords in hands, full bow, etc.

IMPORTANT: I haven't been able to optimize this for every monitor type. Some weapons such as M82, RPGs, etc have very clear screen-tearing. I will try to release an improved version in the future. Also, the mod may look a little different on a 16:9 monitor and may have additional break in models.
