WideEye actually started from a mix of frustration and curiosity. I was waiting for someone to make a mod that let you change the FOV of BONELAB’s spectator camera—but no one did. I barely knew anything about C# back then, but I had UnityExplorer installed, so I used it to manually change the FOV. It worked... but it was super annoying to do every time.
So I thought, “Screw it, I’ll just make a simple mod that changes the FOV when I press a key.” I gave it a try—and it didn’t work. I spent days trying to fix it, nearly gave up, but then noticed something dumb: there was a space at the end of the camera path. That tiny thing was throwing a NullReferenceException.
I removed the space, launched the game, pressed “F,” and boom—it worked.
I was so hyped I made a GitHub repo, a quick icon, a menu, and even a README all in one night. And just like that, WideEye was born.
WideEye started as a random “what if?” moment—and now it’s an actual tool people use, which is wild.
If you like what I’m doing and want to help fuel future updates (or just keep me stocked with snacks and caffeine), you can toss a coin my way here
No pressure—WideEye will always be free. But every bit of support helps keep the keyboard clacking and the ideas flowing.
