Switch Between 3rd Person View And 1st Person View

[EagleEye30]

Thanks Hellsonix. EagleEye - you'll want to add a couple lines to the bottom of spawnPlayer() , which is in the _globallogic script.
This will initiate the dvar, then thread them to a monitoring function.

Here is the code that i've made:


bottom of spanwplayer:

    self setClientDvar("cg_thirdPerson", 1);
    self thread thirdPersonADS();

add this function to the _globallogic script:

thirdPersonADS()    // called from spawnePlayer()
{
    self endon( "killed_player" );
    self endon( "joined_spectators" );
    self endon( "disconnect" );

    lastAds = false;

    while (isPlayer(self) && self.sessionstate == "playing")
    {
        wait .05;

        curAds = self playerAds();
        if (curAds && curAds != lastAds)
            self setClientDvar("cg_thirdPerson", 0);
        else if (!curAds && curAds != lastAds)
        {
            if (!self meleeButtonPressed())
                self setClientDvar("cg_thirdPerson", 1);
        }
        lastAds = curAds;
    }
}

**Using The Toggle To Aim Down Your Gun As A Switch Between 3rd Person View And 1st Person View**


OK, i am going to make this as clear as possible....

-CoD4-MW v1.7 server

As of right now when you toggle the zoom/aim, it zooms the screen in closer to the back of the characters head instead of being able to see whats is directly in front of you. If there is ANYONE who could help me out with this it would be greatly appreciated.
to make a long story short, server is in 3rd person and i would like to be able to use the toggle/aim to switch back and forth from 3rd person to 1st person. Can this be done?

I got this a little while ago but i am unsure as too how i am supposed to add this to my server in order for clients to be able to aim down the weapon and use scopes with cross hairs in view (while in scope or 1st person view). Gameplay would always be in 3rd person view, but when players use the aim/toggle to look down their gun they will be able to do so instead of looking closer at the back of their own heads. Could Someone help me out here i am getting desperate and so is the clan and friends lol.

Just a Note;
Many have told me good information on this but none have explained how i add the info into the server without it crashing/not loading all the time, so if you have NOOB info please let me know.

Thanks in advance to those who can and have helped out.

Its finished and here it is;

After several hours and many headaches, I am please to announce that we now have our server running in 3rd Person Mode.


Standard Play = 3rd Person View


Toggle Aim/Scope = 1st Person View


You are still expected to judge the center of your screen when you are in 3rd Person View, but when you toggle Aim/Scope you will have your crosshairs.

Happy Hunting, and i hope you enjoy!

Hi all;

I have made my own mod, but i only have raw files in my folders. My question is, how do i make them into a workable mod because i have tried to compile the folders and they always seem to hang (not load). Could someone tell me how to do this please.

Thanks in advance.
