SP's Custom Third Person (L4D-Style) (Left 4 Dead 2)

A remade version of my original TPS mod for those who dislikes shift-to-runs.

*TO BRIGHTEN UP CROSSHAIR, READ CL*

*FIRST, PRESS 'Mouse3' (zoom) TO ACTIVATE ALL THIRD PERSON FUNCTIONS!*

CONTROLS:

+Mouse3 (zoom) - Toggles First/Third Person, center aim if in RE cam mode
+Shift - Toggle Run/Walk
+Alt - Toggle Left/Right shoulder view
+Capslock - Toggle RE cam mode

NOTES:

+Scope toggling cannot be done for snipers (unless you change the bind key)
+The red dot on the light is your third person crosshair.
+Best used with sv_cheats 1 (READ CHANGELOG)

CREDITS

+Flashlight Base Texture - VXL (I found his the most appealing)

jeah, figured it out, 9.5/10

Pros

Only one way I could think of making the third person view enjoyable and working with the aim direction

Cons

The command line for c_thirdpersonshoulderdist is untweakable

Overall awesome idea, but i would like to ask you simply to upload a flashlight vpk with your red dot and without the skripts, it would ofeer people like me the chance to tweak their own third person view.

@matt: If you read the changelog, you would had known. Using sv_cheats 1 THEN clicking mouse3 again will brighten up the dot A LOT and will increase the flashlight's distance by a dramatic radius.

Only if you are the host of the server. Otherwise no. I am still looking for ways to improve this (since this is my very first mod) like what you just said, trying to increase the brightness (without the need of sv_cheats cause that's troublesome).

Oh, I didn't read that, kind of. Isn't there a way to make it brighter without needing sv_cheats 1 though? Because I would like to use this in multiplayer. It already works in multiplayer, but the crosshair is still hard to see.

You know, there is another way to activate the 3rd person mode, you click the ALT button. I did that its so easy! I dont know if its on everyone's controls, but you dont have to use the cheats if you dont want.

I'm pretty sure thats another mod of yours which enables the Third Person. If I understand correctly, alt is NOT the default key for Third Person. And Third Person does not require cheats.

Pros

It's good to see that someone finally made a third person mod that's actually accurate. I've always prefered playing in third person.

Cons

The crosshair disappears as you aim further into the distance and in some areas I can't see it really good, which is quite annoying because then I can't see where I'm shooting.

I think anyone who prefers third person will love this. If you can try and fix the crosshair issue that would be good. For example, just make it bright red wherever you point it so you can see it where you aim. I'll defintely give it a 10 if this could be fixed.
