Fov slider on kovaaks vs Apex Legends problem

[BlueEagle0717]

I had got kovaaks not too long ago and i went onto this website to convert from apex to kovaaks. Kovaaks has different settings to convert from different games such as fortnite, apex, and overwtch, but if I match the 360 distance with monitor distance at 0% this website is saying that my fov in kovaaks (despite being on the apex setting) should be 102.725. So I scrathced my head and used that fov in kovaaks thinking that kovaaks must have it wrong. Well after a 2 week break from apex and playing nothing but kovaaks i logged onto apex today to find out that my feels like shit in apex. So who has the fov problem? Kovaaks or mousesensitivity.com? I have since then switched my fov in kovaaks to 102 (matching my apex fov without using this website) and now im not so sure who to trust. What should I do?

You just set the FOV to be the same in both, and then enter the value the calculator tells you.

Example: if I want my FOV to be 90 Vertical degrees in both games, I'd enter 1.518003 for the "FOV multiplier" in Apex, and 106.26 for Kovaak's default setting (Horizontal 4:3 - although you can set Kovaak's to calculate using vertical FOV.

 

EDIT: the above still stands as the best way to configure FOVs, but I do see what you mean now. It's actually Apex that is "wrong"  because the Apex  FOV value in the option menu is not correct. You should use the config file to set the FOV. In game, it's close to Horizontal 4:3 but not quite right.

Example: if you wanted 100 degrees Horizontal 4:3, you'd have to set 101.168831 in the Apex menu.
