It is really strange that key binding from options doesn’t work for you. Might be something with createmove hook. For now you could bind it manually through console with the following command: bind key thirdperson_enhanced_toggle. Replace the “key” with the key you desire. I personally use “b”

Are there any known incompatibilities or something? I'm trying to use the thirdperson but it keeps toggling back to firstperson after a split-second.

Another thing to note is that without the addon, I could seemingly already switch between firstperson and thirdperson for some reason. I unbound it to use enhanced thirdperson instead. Now neither really work.

I can enter thirdperson through the console commands, just not the enhanced thirdperson or something? But then I can't go back to firstperson.

Thnx I'll be sure to check it out

You’re welcome, feel free to use this addon. It pairs great with “Action GMod” addon, I recommend.

Ok thanks for clarifying

Maybe I should rename this setting to “Movement direction lock” or something like that

Works not as in other shooter games but I felt that locking a player’s freedom to shoot Wherever his view is pointing is too invasive(and also implementing it that way was easier)

Yeah, freelook key only locks movement direction, but not look direction. With it you could walk in a straight line and look(and thus shoot) wherever you want.

It still moves my charcter even though im holding the key

If everything else is working then it is not a conflict. Make sure that you bound the freelook key correctly. When you hold it, your movement direction should lock, so if you look around and keep pressing W, you should move into the same direction.

free look doesnt seem to work for me is it an addon conflict?

TFA Hud

Does anyone what the HUD mod used in the showcase video is?

Why? Maybe something is conflicting. Try to disable all the addons that somehow affect the camera position

worst wont work

Fu FU FU FU FU FU FU FU FU FU FU FU FU FU mod is so so broken

fix it it still works when disabled and it forces you in thirdperson all the time

Sadly, no. I tried to deal with this problem, but only made it jankier. This is how it works sadly

Is there any way to make the PM stop rotating when too close to an wall? Its extremely annoying when u wanna go through doors and etc

yo when i switch sides it changes my angle thanks if u fix!

Only in thirdperson mode?

when i use this the keys of the movement get inverted like if i try to move forward it moves backwards or if i try to move left it moves right

@Sherbb I’ll look into this problem soon, glanced trough that part from stormfox2, it should work but somehow doesn’t, needs more investigation. For now you could either deactivate thirdperson addon or stormfox2, if problem persists, please report the new error stack trace

Conflicting with stormfox2, remove it

I keep getting this constantly repeated and can't switch through my weapons

It is strange, I'll investigate it later, maybe convar for thirdperson bind is set to some audio button key by default

Why is it automatically set to my audio button

when i try to use free look it just does not work for some reason

Here it is https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3509655509&searchtext=enhanced+thirdperson I explained the reason why I wouldnt add such a feature myself in comments

It has this feature, every fov change is reflected, so if a weapon changes fov then thirdperson view changes fov too, but unfortunately most popular weapon packs dont change fov if it detects a thirdperson view. Some chinese guy made a fork of this addon that just zooms on right click, search for “enhanced thirdperson”

really like this!11!

I wish this has an option to have like a fov zoom through right click like most third person shooters.

no gmod tps mod has this feature. maybe this could be the first to have it :)

Yes it is, to give it appraisals, drain all your parents bank accounts to buy drugs and give it out for free to kindergarten children.

This is the best thirdperson add-on in gmod workshop!

it still works with mwbase some playermodels like Dopey halo reach models have weird head cam tho easy fix

why the hell does my view change perspectives when i move my volume slider on my headset

Didn’t test but should be compatible

is it compatible with mw base?

Yes it's possible, if such feature is really needed I could implement it yes

Is it possible to detect walls and automatically adjust the camera's left and right angles?
If not, at least make sure the camera isn't distracted by NPC or players.
This is because whenever an NPC passes behind me, the camera instantly zooms in to the closest distance.
By the way, when the crosshair is pointed at glass or wire mesh, it doesn't focus on the object behind it, but only on the object itself. Is there a way to change this?

[Google Translate Traditional Chinese → English]

oh okay

Yes it does, altho aim zoom doesn't work with ARC9, it stops modifying FOV if it detects thirdperson mode for some reason

does it work for ARC9 Weapon Base?

Pushed an update fixing this issue. If you get it randomly, check thirdperson settings, maybe you've set up freelook bind to an undesired key which you accidentally press sometimes, which causes this error. Error will be gone, but an unwanted bind is also bad, so be advised. Thanks for the report!

ah, got it, it's when you press your freelook bind without ever getting into thirdperson mode

It doesn't happen randomly, it happens once +thirdperson_etp_free command is being used, new freelook feature. It's strange... why does it fail...

Also clear the "TFA Base weapon" part, it just happens randomly.

Thanks, I’ll fix it in an hour

1. unknown - lua/thirdperson_enhanced/thirdperson.lua:14
2. unknown - lua/includes/modules/concommand.lua:54

It happens once when I use a TFA Base weapon. I think it just has something to do with how the weapon has some camera effects or something that causes the error.
