I've noticed on my computer that the game seems to have a little bit of a fishbowl effect. I tried changing the camera settings and have made it worse and better, but it still seems to be there ever so slightly. Has anyone else noticed this? It may also just be that I'm so used to DM graphics still, but maybe not.

Yup, particularly when you crank up the graphics and bring up the chat window from below.. it gets REALLY bad! :(

That being said.. most other times it isn't really noticeable.

Yeah my friend and I both noticed it. It does not effect the monster or object that are 3d rendered from what we can gather. It is a little annoying but because it only effects walls and paintings and such it's not too bad. :)

I haven't palyed but I would have to guess that this is a result of a higher or lower field of view setting.

There is a way to change that setting with a command, but I forget what it is.

Opposite the Butterfly Effect?

Ahhhhh

Makes sense, there is actually a option in the "Config" panel when you are in game.

It allows you to change how far / close you are from your character.

yea, you can change field of view through the config now, but I couldn't seem to get it to where I wanted it.
