! SPOILERS ! Camera constantly zoomed-in after initial Javamatic ingredients insertion

[hopintheroflcopter]

Hi, so I just finished putting the ingredients into the Javamatic and as soon as the cinematic with the ants attacking was shown, the game is now stuck in an iffy slightly zoomed in view.

I have an ultrawide (Samsung CHG90) and had no issues so far, with over 240 hours in-game.
I've tried changing numerous graphics settings. Tried some stuff in-game i.e. sleeping, dying, saving then loading but nothing has fixed it.
If I go to third person it's still zoomed in. One thing that has sort-of mitigated it is going to third-person view and ramping the FOV up to 120, however it's still a bit off and I really prefer to play the game first-person.

I've attached images so you can see. (Somehow the site let me upload five pictures originally, but after having to redo the post it's now limiting me to two...)

P.S thanks to the devs for such an amazing game! It's one of the best games I've played in recent years and I am still hooked on it.
Despite the odd bug here-and-there nothing has really bothered me up until now (ok, maybe the broken Natural Explorer for a little while lol). Keep it up and really looking forward to future expansions!

Just for anyone else experiencing this bug, I haven't seen anyone post any solutions but i managed to fix this. I too have an ultrawide monitor and my game was perma zoomed in fov after the javamatic cut scene. This makes me think its an ultra-wide only problem which i guess not many people run into and hence why its still in the game lol. The only way i was able to fix this was by restarting my PC and opening disc clean up from the search bar. From there i went through every drive and deleted every directX shader cache (I also cleaned up all the other files but i doubt that made any impact). When i next loaded the game my FOV was fixed. I hope this helps anyone else who runs into this issue as I have found 0 information online about it

Had the exact same issue and just made an account to say this saved my game, thank you.

I'm still currently experiencing this issue, and it occurred at the same moment. Deleting directX shaders cache did not resolve my issue
