Re: Greater Max FOV

Thank you for expanding the FOV range. Now I can look straight up and straight down and see almost to the horizon either way. Plus I like spinning at 170?.

Please note that zooming all the way out to 179 will, for the flash player, result in the panorama becoming a small rectangular blur of colorful lines with a lot of black around it, and navigating makes it behave like a wibbly-wobbly cube-like thing twitching around, so you really shouldn't do this unless for artistic reasons. A max fov value of 174 still fills the viewing window while also showing a super-duper wide-angle view. Your choice. :-)
