3rd person mod *screen inside*

[={SOC}= Sniper]

uh i need help. LOL

[$G-MONEY SMITH$]

yes any updates?

[={SOC}= Sniper]

this editor is weird.

[thefuzmixman]

has anyone had even a little success with the new editor?

[imported_DMXSNOW]

IMO this would be the greatest mod if it worked :( .

[321]

Looks nice but, I would like to see 3rd person included in other mods not just a mod by itself but whatever.

[imported_dadofsam]

its simply not possible i'm pretty sure, as it will lead to expolits etc. hence why not added into BF2

[wolfi]

it surely is.
if its possible to add/modify/remove vehicle cameras it is possible to add/medify soldier cameras.

[Megaraptor]

How did you get 3p view to work?

This will be great for mods trying to get a good look at their new skins/weapons/soldiers.

[IHateYou]

Doesn't Star Wars Battlefields us the same engine as BF2? They have a great 3rd person view in that game... Surely it can be done, but I guess we'll need that stupid editor...

[imported_dadofsam]

Megaraptor
they just altered the position of the camera, you couldnt switch between the different views, in the editor you can though so why not just use the editor?

[Megaraptor]

Can you change this in the editor so it has a 3rd person view like most Bf1942 mods?

[321]

Really wish that you could toggle between third person and first person.

[Kaltagesta]

Can you change this in the editor so it has a 3rd person view like most Bf1942 mods?

You can view soldiers and their skins in 3rd person in the editor. Go to the animation editor.

[Megaraptor]

Ahhh I hate the editor:(

[Bestrafe mich]

Any news so far guys?

[={SOC}= Sniper]

god this editoris hatred to me:\

[Bestrafe mich]

i guess nothing yet.... and btw that bunny looks more like a owl. :)

[={SOC}= Sniper]

lol ur so funny!

[BaconUK]

As someone said, not to be used on ranked MP but will be good for movies.

[kohaku892002]

hey sorry guys i was on vacation, i was looking at the animations and stuff in the editor, its rather complicated, my friend was looking at it while i was away, so im gonna ask him if he found out anything

[Bestrafe mich]

just so the new ppl to the thread know, we are talking about crosshair for 3rd person. i think 3rd person view is already in the bag.

[kohaku892002]

ok guys, first of all, THERE WILL BE A TOGGLE OPTION , i dontk now how many times i have said that, and no using this in multiplayer i dont think is possible anymore, if you could, well in its current state, you would not be able to hit anything whatsoever, and my friend and i are still messing with the editor, i will post updates as they come up

[Bestrafe mich]

thank you Kohaku892002 for response, for a minute I was having abandonment issues.

[={SOC}= Sniper]

We wont quit! WE WILL STAND MODDING THIS AND FINISH IT.

[Chief-Mulla]

im sure you guys will get it, its just a bit of a mindfark

also, maybe you should report this mod to punkbuster and dice just incase someone tries to use it in multiplayer

[fubz]

I gotta say you people talking about using mods and **** in multiplayer are pretty retarded. You have to activate the mod before you can even use it. then you cant get in the servers that arn't running the mod because your using a friggin mod. This isn't a hack... you people really need to grow some brains or something. its a MOD MOD MOD, you MODIFY the game and it runs SEPERATLY from the ORIGINAL game, so there is NO WAY you can even enter a game that is running the ORIGINAL UNMODIFIED game.

[Bestrafe mich]

thank you for explanation Fubz,
Yep, we get it. Yes, it is a standalone mod. I understand it's not for Punkbuster or Vanilla BF2 or MP for that matter. :rolleyes:

[kohaku892002]

meh, you people really need to learn, it cant be used in multiplayer like many have stated in this thread!!!!!!! and reporting this could get my friend and i in trouble..

[$G-MONEY SMITH$]

any progress??

[Deejay01]

Anyone help me out with this?

I wanna try the basic one released a while ago, but its been taken down off FileFront....

Anyone got the instructions for me? I was an admin for FileFront forums, but because I moaned they put me into suspension for a while... :cry:

[viper51]

Could you rehost it somewhere else or back on filefront, i've been looking for a mod like this and there is no other place that has one.

If you could rehost it please..

[kohaku892002]

hey guys im back, ive been busy, anyone know where i can host the mod?

[Bestrafe mich]

Welcome back Kohaku, any progress on crosshair?

[UnrealAlex]

I dont like 3rd person view. Its unrealistic, you can go to a wall and see whats behind it around the corner etc. without actualy looking. Its like wallhax XD

[Johnny Bravo]

hey i still got it, may i host it on filefront please?

[-Recon-(Scope)]

I dont like 3rd person view. Its unrealistic, you can go to a wall and see whats behind it around the corner etc. without actualy looking. Its like wallhax XD

thats the only downside of SOCOM for ps2, you could just camp a building with lots of walls and its really easy to kill someone, but i like it because it looks cool because you get to see your soldier move arround and stuff

[wolfi]

Yea the FlyBy cam is cool for taking screens of my newest skins without recording and replaying them in the battlerecorder :) Otherwise it takes too much time :(

So please make the vehicle cameras such as 1P, chase, front chase and flyby.
Would love to see an overhead camera in gta style :laugh:

[=CC=Serpentor]

For those that were like "I want it without a crosshair cuz I'm uber 1337!! Look at my realism muscles RARRRR!!" You're retarded. Try using the APC or a tank in 3rd person. It's not cool. Unless of course you're shooting a stationary target and like wasting ammo.

[Bestrafe mich]

Super Six,
What do you still have? 3person view with crosshair?

As for those who thinks it's a hack..... First, if you don't like it don't use it. Second, this mod is for Single player or Stand alone Non-PB MP. Unless you are concern with unfair treatment of bots your remarks are pointless.

[Johnny Bravo]

i don't have 3pv with crosshair but i have a non-crosshair from him

[kohaku892002]

hey guys i have a new place to host the mod thanks to Souk, here are the links:

http://home.comcast.net/~l4g/soldiers.zip

http://home.comcast.net/~chandy1986/soldiers.zip

i am gonna work on another readme and put him in the credits as well, enjoy

[cheeseontoast]

Well m8 I'm impressed by it. And its a god send when your involved with modding. To be able to see 3rd person is really helpful. Once you get the "c" toggle added I'd like to add it to Surreal Mod, with your permission of course.

[$G-MONEY SMITH$]

can you guys work on the crosshair or is this impossible?

[={SOC}= Sniper]

We are still trying. We know you are excited.

[$G-MONEY SMITH$]

yes, yes i am!!!:D

[cheeseontoast]

I personally don't see any real need to add the cross hairs but a toggle between 3rd and 1st is a must.

[CXZAR]

I personally don't see any real need to add the cross hairs but a toggle between 3rd and 1st is a must.

that's exactly what i think!!! i really wish u guys the best luck with this mod...

[-(PK)-DarkIllusion]

:D Awesome!!!!!!!!

[={SOC}= Sniper]

Thanks guys we are trying hard to get this thing running up with the toggle.

[wolfi]

Yea and if 1P and 3P works try to activate the FlyBy too.
With flyby, its alot easier for me to take screenshots of new skins and so on.

[Bestrafe mich]

Thanx for keeping your work on crosshair. Ability to play in 3rd person adds another dimension to the game's experience. It's all about having an option, people.:)

[Imaginary Turtle]

hey guys, thanks for the replies, here is an updated pic of the cameras, the crosshair is still being worked on though, and yes the default toggle button will be C for camera change :)

Can you make it O instead? I use c to crouch...

[wolfi]

Its not C, its the default camera toggle button.
When u toggle your cam with X or whatever it will be X i think.

[Imaginary Turtle]

Its not C, its the default camera toggle button.
When u toggle your cam with X or whatever it will be X i think.
You're a *******. Did you not know you can change your keys? I use O as my camera toggle key, and C as my crouch key. Geez. And also, I've downloaded the beta version of this, and though I haven't tried it, I can't join any servers with it. I'm going to remove it but won't I need the older file? Can someone post the original objects_server for me? Please?

[Megaraptor]

Why can't you use F9, F10, F11 and F12?

[Argentine]

Looks fantastic. Thanx.

Roy

[Ganzothegreat]

I think it would be good exept for when youre trying to sneak up on someone because the can see anyone behind or over them.

[={SOC}= Sniper]

Its for SP :D

[Bestrafe mich]

You're a *******. Did you not know you can change your keys? I use O as my camera toggle key, and C as my crouch key. Geez. And also, I've downloaded the beta version of this, and though I haven't tried it, I can't join any servers with it. I'm going to remove it but won't I need the older file? Can someone post the original objects_server for me? Please?

You're a *******. Did you read README file. Don't you know to back up files from original mod folder before you change them. Guess what, I see reinstalling in your future.
BTW, nothing personal just making the point. :D

[={SOC}= Sniper]

Ok guys im going on vacation from modding. ill be on but not modding :| yea my arm hurts. from trying to do this POS editor everyday.

[wolfi]

You're a *******. Did you read README file. Don't you know to back up files from original mod folder before you change them. Guess what, I see reinstalling in your future.
BTW, nothing personal just making the point. :D
haha - thanks in advance :laugh: 1:0
im not a *******, im playin bf since the wake demo came out man so dont tell me whats possible and what not :p

[Imaginary Turtle]

You're a *******. Did you read README file. Don't you know to back up files from original mod folder before you change them. Guess what, I see reinstalling in your future.
BTW, nothing personal just making the point. :D
Yeah well I was too excited at the time to remember backing up my files. That and I didn't know it would ***** at me saying I couldn't join any servers. Can someone PLEASE help me with this?! Please post their good version of objects_server.zip. And wolfi, I have also been playing since the wake demo, but then again, that doesn't make either of us any much smarter on the whole modding front.

[SuperB]

I noticed that when I had my palyer in 3rd person mode, when python reinitializes the host it switches the camera view. I had three cameraviews selected and everytime I manually reinitialized my python host the camera views switched.

So somthing about one of those python commands switches the players camera. Sounds what you guys need to toggle the camera. Id be happy to explain furthur if somebody gives a ****.

[wolfi]

And wolfi, I have also been playing since the wake demo, but then again, that doesn't make either of us any much smarter on the whole modding front.
;) Lets dance

[kohaku892002]

hello guys, i dont know if im going to continue to work on the mod, my inbox keeps getting spammed with message like this:

Hello, I just downloaded you mini mod. I followed
instructions and went to play the game. I saw the
third person angle, that was cool, but when I tried to
go back to first person view it wouldnt let me. I just
have to say that this mini mod sucks. Maybe you should
warn people in your read-me. Now I have to reinstall BF2...

in my readme i noted this: and note we are not responsible for anything that may happen to your game, im sick of morons like this, so i dont know if i am going to continue this mod, im sick of all these emails..

[SuperB]

Does changing 1 value in the soldier camera from a 0 to a 1 count as "working on a mod" ? Doesnt sound like you have much to retire from....

[kohaku892002]

ok listen, im sick of this crap, changing the values does NOTHING! you have to get the camera positions right and stuff, we are also working on a toggle option so far all it does it toggle the nose, behind, and flyby views, and we are also trying to impliment a crosshair

[={SOC}= Sniper]

I know how you feel kohaku.

[$G-MONEY SMITH$]

nooo dont quit ignore ignorant fools like this. not sniper. but dumb people. maybe you should stop posting and like delete this thread then like if you want it pm me kinda thing. idk.

[kohaku892002]

ok, all the idiots read this, if this mod somehow screwed up your game its your fault, i stated in the readme that my friend and i were not responsible for what happened, learn to read idiots, and stop sending me emails saying my mod sucks, if you dont have anything nice to say dont even bother


if you also have any common sense you will BACKUP YOUR FILES!

[Dethshoot1]

This mod reminds me of socom 2 :)

[-Recon-(Scope)]

socom2 is a kick *** game...i love it, it was fun until a bunch of noobs started playing trying to get kills with their machine guns lol

[Imaginary Turtle]

ok, all the idiots read this, if this mod somehow screwed up your game its your fault, i stated in the readme that my friend and i were not responsible for what happened, learn to read idiots, and stop sending me emails saying my mod sucks, if you dont have anything nice to say dont even bother

Well I never knew it would screw with playing online. Can someone please be a bit helpful and post their unedited objects_server.zip. I'm not really feeling very compelled to reinstall.

[={SOC}= Sniper]

haha we arent responsible!

[Imaginary Turtle]

haha we arent responsible!
Maybe you didn't read. Because I never said you WERE responsible. So here's a little **** you from me to you.

[={SOC}= Sniper]

Um. Ill try to send u an UNEDITED thingy majig. lemme see.

[T-raV]

What did you think..you could mod your game and then go and play online. If you modify anything in the mods/bf2 folder you can't play online......Thats why it takes so long verifying client data. If you could mod things then play online, could you imagine all the things that would be going on.

[kohaku892002]

yep listen to this guy, and read previous posts in the forums, it will tell you all of this, and we are still working on the toggle option, no avail yet :(

[wolfi]

:( bad news

[Johnny Bravo]

who what where how why?

[Imaginary Turtle]

I thought that it would only affect single player. Nothing said it would conflict with online play, and considering I know nothing about modding in BF2 I wouldn't know. EDIT: Will people actually help me and stop being total dicks?

[={SOC}= Sniper]

No since u acted like a **** to us.

[grolsche]

To solve the problem, why dont you just make the 3rd person views a seperate mod. I know you'll have to do all the copy level stuff but at least then you wont get people asking why they cant play online now.

[Bestrafe mich]

To solve the problem, why dont you just make the 3rd person views a seperate mod.

Yep, that's what I did. Took Excentriker's earlier mod zipped the files up in Object_server and off I went. BTW, I have never played Battlefield before BF2, but have enough of logic not to screw around with original files.
I do not play it after initial try. Something has to do with camera view and soldier not being aligned. Coming from Soldier of Fortune 2 where camera view stays in fixed position behind player it's kinda unusual and hard to get used to w/out crosshair. Neverthenless, it is fun to see your self from above, I just couldn't hit anything. :)

[Imaginary Turtle]

No since u acted like a **** to us.
How? I'm beginning to hate you even more sniper, just **** off. Because you're in the Sir. clan doesn't make you cool.

[kohaku892002]

umm buddy, there are many topics that state that stuff cant be used in multiplayer, and you were kinda rude to Sniper..

[={SOC}= Sniper]

Thanks kohaku ;)

[Johnny Bravo]

and no fighting,anyway whats the status on crosshairs?

[Imaginary Turtle]

umm buddy, there are many topics that state that stuff cant be used in multiplayer, and you were kinda rude to Sniper..
Uh, how? He wanted to start ******** by saying I was acting like an ******* to you guys, even though I wasn't. I was just shocked and asking for help. YOU were the only people being assholes.

[Punisher18]

yeah. i dont feel like looking through all od these 23 pages. lol so if this is up yet can someone give me a link.

[GlobalFear]

You're a *******. Did you not know you can change your keys? I use O as my camera toggle key, and C as my crouch key. Geez. And also, I've downloaded the beta version of this, and though I haven't tried it, I can't join any servers with it. I'm going to remove it but won't I need the older file? Can someone post the original objects_server for me? Please?

Thats one place where you were rude.

[Imaginary Turtle]

Thats one place where you were rude.
well it was kinda the only place, and I'm kinda sorry about it. It's just when people act stupid like that I tend to get angry easily. VERY easily. Could someone PLEASE help me with this? All I'm doing is asking for help, but you guys keep on insulting me saying "OLOL IT NOT OUR FUALT LOOLO" and "UR A DUMMY U SHULDVE BAkED IT UP NOOOOBOBOBOBOSFHBWIAD L:OLLOOLOLLOLO" All I asked for was some GODDAMNED HELP. But now I realize that a forum can change a lot in a half-year, this forum went from nice, to full of assholes. ****ing amazing.

[$G-MONEY SMITH$]

How about you guys try shutting the **** up? Is it realy nessicary to argue now? Problem was solved so stop. Aslo any news on the crosshair?

[Imaginary Turtle]

*bump* Is it possible to just delete the soldiers folder?

[={SOC}= Sniper]

No. You cant then that would just SCREW UP UR BF2 and if u did that it would have to reinstall to fix it -_- im sorry but i cant copy the soldier crap. I am sorry too if i was rude to you. But idk if i can. Im sorry i hope u get help.

[Imaginary Turtle]

You don't have to say sorry, sniper. Can anyone just extract the normal soldiers folder from their objects_server.zip and just upload it somewhere? It's reaaaly, and I would be very thankful if someone would do it.

[wolfi]

here you go: http://rapidshare.de/files/5001040/soldiers.rar.html
this are bf2's original soldier files

[kohaku892002]

hey guys, thank you Wolfi for solving his problem, now i havent had time to work on it because of school but i will begin again this weekend

[Johnny Bravo]

hey,nice to see you,i made a mini-mod and it has the 3rd person view,and i credit you in my mini-mod

[={SOC}= Sniper]

Damn i got sick cold. but hell im still trying. and kicking ppls *** on Americas army bf2

[ConscriptVirus]

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!! Now I can go and finally hop into lance corporal! :D. Again, THANK YOU SO MUCH WOLFI. I am indebted to you.

[={SOC}= Sniper]

Congrats u can own!

[wolfi]

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!! Now I can go and finally hop into lance corporal! :D. Again, THANK YOU SO MUCH WOLFI. I am indebted to you.
I try to help where i can :)

[I-Kodiak-I]

that should be good for poeple who are trying to make movies, I hope you guys get it finished it would be a good mod to have;)

[kohaku892002]

ok who is responsible for this?? http://battlefield2.filefront.com/file/3rd_Person_Soldiers;46853
i said you guys could use it in your mods as long as you gave everyone in the readme credit, i did not say that anyone could post it at another site.. i want to know who did this

[Eglaerinion]

Nothing special, has been build into the battlefield games since bf1942 but locked in the vanilla versions, some mods for bf1942 and bfv have a 3rd person view. Creating a working crosshair would be something different though.

[wolfi]

Nothing special? They locked it somehow.
Theres a checkbox for each perspective.
Inside
Nose
Chase
Frontchase
FlyBy
Trace
ExternTrace

And if they all (or just chase and inside) are activated only the inside view works.
Only if you activate one perspective it works.

I dont care about the crosshair, i only need the toggle option :(

[SuperB]

Ever notice that if you enter a vehicle and exit the players view toggles.

Perhaps if you have a fake vehcile somewhere on the map and have save the players spot in python then enter said vechile and exit and put the player back in the same spot through python you could do the toggle.

I think that might work. In fact I could do it maybe tonight.

[Johnny Bravo]

yes i notice,on the other hand *presses self destruct button*,come on!,i thought it works *boom!*

[imported_Sh0t]

In response to the statements about it being a "hack", think of it like this:

In real life, you have far more situational awareness about your position because of your peripheral, tacticle sense, balance, audio cues and so forth. So a 3rd position view just lets you mimic that awareness within the game. I would also like to see it enable you to look around corners a bit(by turning the camera so you see YOUR profile and what's behind it, to mimic looking around a corner in real life

[Variyn]

I like the idea, but I have to agree with Badlizzard 100%, if this was allow the game would be broken for ever.

[bugkill]

i totally disagree with people who thinks the game would be ruined by a 3rd person view and here is why. first, bf2 is a fast paced action game, not a combat infantryman simulator. the actual gamemode is designed for frantic action and not much strategy (capturing and holding CP's over and over again does not warrant much strategy).

also, look how hard it is to kill someone in this game. the damage system is setup to create the all out action gameplay, not realism. the 3rd person view is just another way to play the game and it will not give you an advantage (IMHO) in the game because your focus won't be 100% into the combat, but it will be into the things happening around you . the guy in first person view would be more dangerous because he is more focused within his own view. he does not have to be distracted by all the other action going on around him. he can zero in on his surroundings and not "sit back" to enjoy the visuals that is taking place during the combat. it is just another way to enjoy watching yourself play the game, simple as that and noone should be bothered about having the "option" to play that way.;)

[kohaku892002]

hey guys, im still alive :P i have been busy the past few months but will renew work on this mod, anyway just to let ya know, im back

[-GRimm-]

hey guys, im still alive :P i have been busy the past few months but will renew work on this mod, anyway just to let ya know, im back
lol, good to know that was about to ask. And don't you love how Fed up these forums are? It put your post on the second to last page and the last post says 9-29-05 or something and yours says 1 hour ago?? lmao its great!

[aquanda]

I'd suggest making the camera much closer to the body, so you can only see the bottom of the belt and above. It might give you a more panoramic view of the area than a 3/4 view.

[kohaku892002]

hey guys, ok, tell me what variations of the mod you want and we will try to get them done, still messing with the bloody mod tools, fun fun fun

[-GRimm-]

So the crosshair thing isnt possible? Cause that would just be the best thing ever and a toggle button.

[={SOC}= Sniper]

ahhh i cant mod nemore:( My comp DIED and then i tried to install bf2 but the tiniest scratch killed it:( goodluck

[kohaku892002]

hey guys, sorry for the late reply, school and stuff, anyway, can someone reccommend a good tutorial for the mod tools? And Sniper, sorry about that, you were a good help to us, and yes the crosshair thing is definately possible

[wolfi]

hey guys, ok, tell me what variations of the mod you want and we will try to get them done, still messing with the bloody mod tools, fun fun fun
1p, chase, front chase, flyby. thats all i want ;)

[={SOC}= Sniper]

All dat work down the drain of d00m:(

[hoOk~]

thats awesome man, so is it classified as a cheat or no? looks good anyways, ill only use if its not classified as a cheat, keep up the good work and keep us posted when the crosshair is up

[Tres]

hey guys, sorry for the late reply, school and stuff, anyway, can someone reccommend a good tutorial for the mod tools? And Sniper, sorry about that, you were a good help to us, and yes the crosshair thing is definately possible

I admittedly haven't read all the way through this thread so you might have mentioned this previously, but can you outline to me how you plan to implement a third-person crosshair?

[Fullforce]

Have you played Ghost Recon 2? That kind of 'over the shoulder' camera would be great - you would be able to play well too.

I'll get yous a screenshot.

EDIT: Heres one:
http://www.thegamingonline.com/Xbox/Screenshots/Pictures/tomclancys_gr2_4.jpg

Possibly, can you make it like the game? So when you zoom (right click) it goes into first person? that would be the nuts.

EDIT2: I dont mean it goes into first person (but i do) but i mean it goes into first person, looking down the sights... if you get what i mean.

[wolfi]

As far as i know, 1P with crosshair isnt possible, since the crosshair is always centered.
But you can try it if you want to. I only need the DC-styled camera.

[errno]

26 pages of lol

[Tres]

26 pages of lol

Agreed http://members.iinet.net.au/~jojo/Images/emot-downs.gif

[MrTbIaTcH]

can i use thise mod in my a-team mod?????? :D

[wolfi]

Any updates on this? Has anyone tried to do this with the 1.12 patch?
Maybe its possible now..

[kohaku892002]

hey guys, well my friend is almost done with the auto installer and uninstaller so good news there, i will keep things updated

[wolfi]

I tried to create a new camera and attach it to the soldier instead of the existing one.
Didnt work. All i want is a toggle option for inside, chase and flyby mode :(

[errno]

can you make it like the game? So when you zoom (right click) it goes into first person? that would be the nuts.


i use right click to jump this is unacceptable

[MrTbIaTcH]

i use right click to jump this is unacceptable

it should be set to space

[MoLoLu]

I know i'm reviving a really old topic here , sorry but i had an idea for getting crosshairs in the 3rd person view:

Add the crosshair line into the HudElementsPlayer.con file. I haven't tested this, but all the stuff from this file gets shown on all the cam modes. Maby someone already had this idea, I ddn't read through the whole thread.
If this is old news I'm sorry for bumping this thread.

[errno]

I'm sorry for bumping this thread.

what have you done!?

[MrTbIaTcH]

is this working yet i want it for my a-tema mod

[MoLoLu]

what have you done!?

Dunno, awoken the sleeping dragon? :P maby not

[box_boy]

Can you get rid of the blue name tag above the player?

[iPWNZ]

Sweeett Lol

[Vertigo_002]

This thread seems to be active so...

I get a 404 when I try to download it. Can you re-link it?

Couldn't you make the crosshair part of the HUD bmp or whatever and set the camera up so it moves in line with the HUD? Meaning, if you move the mouse up (Which makes the gun point down) the camera will rise higher so you see more of the ground, Like in Star Wars Battlefront II?

[wolfi]

Forget this thing, the camera was hardcoded by dice.
Believe me, I've tried to create a new camera and use this one instead of the normal soldier cam but it seems that every camera which is attached to a soldier can only have one active view mode.

[modsoul]

so this thread still alive. if so i can't find what page the file is posted on. could someone point me to it. i did try a search for the file but no luck.
thanks. and nice mod.

[an army medic]

im not reading 1 billion posts to see if this mod is out. so is it?

[wolfi]

No because it doesnt work. You can only enable one camera mode for soldiers and you cannot toggle them. If you have first person and chase for example, first person will be enabled.

[TexasHulligan]

I understand its a mod but...
It is a FIRST PERSON SHOOTER after all :p
yeah lol this will make it seem like Socom (that's a compliment)

[isEy78]

lol...great idea tho...would be nice to have a couple different views as a solider

Did anyone make their own file in which they have it set only to 3rd person view then? I'd like to have that file, try it out, and then see if I will like it better than my default file. Please assist. Thanks, Mo.

Well, if we're resurrecting this thread, at one point I added the 3rd person camera server-side. You would start out in 1st person, then enter a vehicle to get to 3rd person. Then you could climb a ladder to get back to 1st.

It was fun but quite a hassle :p

Wow this thread is a year old and still going strong....

[IRC 121]

Is there a page on this thread that tells me how to do it myself since there is nothing to download? I didn't read the whole thread only because it is like a book (and I had guests over so no I'm not lazy. Much).

I'm speaking of 3rd person views here, not so much the name tags...

This mod was totally awesome. I tried it last night. So, just for the 10th time, there is no way to be able to aim or have cross hairs with this mod, correct?

The silence tells me everything. Thanks anyways.

PAGE 20!

AND READ ALL OF MY POSTS in the previous couple of pages. You may save your self time by not trying this mod out at all. You can not aim. Can ANYONE fix this? "Me love you long time" if you can, Mo.

[Jedi_Joe]

does this mod have a auto installer?

[SGT.Scropion]

hey everyone after messing with some files my friend and i got this mod to work, we are still tweaking the camera a bit, and we are also gonna add a toggle option between 3rd and 1st person views, expect an installer soon, (moderators, please feel free to delete or lock my soldier cameras topic) anyway, any comments on how you guys would want the camera set up would be appreciated :), yes i know it needs a crosshair, remember this is just the early stages, we will impliment a crosshair

[IRC 121]

read this thread and you will know.

You can see around you when in a tank, hit f10, f11 etc f9 puts you back in the tank. The reason this is excluded for the soldier model is because people use it to see over objects and around corners, things that should not be allowed.

I can only hope that punkbuster will catch this and kick you for using it.

I might have a possible solution, but it's to have a 3rd person crosshair and no toggle. It's a really really lengthy solution. First, you have to modify the 1p ske file, so the camera bone is far enough behind. Then you have to find a method to make the 3rd person model appear instead of the 1p model (which is just arms). Even if this means replacing the 1p.ske with the 3p.ske, and models. And of course adding a camera bone to the 3p.ske.
