**Issue Description:** **Steps to Reproduce:** 1. Open the game 2. Go to the character selector (or just go to the Mourningstar) 3. Go to Options → Video 4. Try and change the FoV slider 5. Game will immediately crash If this is not reproducible, try and delete the `user_settings.config` file and try again - it’s very reproducible on my end, especially with a “blank” user\_settings.config file **Platform:** Steam **Player ID:** bluntwraaaap **Approx.

Forum mods also need to eat and sleep 😄 I posted a temp fix on the Discord… […] I found the fix - and for everyone else having the game crash, when changing values on the FoV slider Find your `user_settings.config` file and you can change your FoV manually using `vertical_fov = 90` or whatever you want. I put my line right above the `volumetric_data_size` if that makes sense. The `user_settings.config` file will be at `%appdata%/Fatshark/Darktide` [![](https://i.imgur.com/VGk7qyo.gif) ](https://i.imgur.com/VGk7qyo.gif) ---

It’s happening with me as well. Before the last update I hadn’t this bug. ---
