Loving this mod so far, rly nice job. Helicopter view is a bit off at certain angles with the view clipping thru the ACC roof lol - but it's not an issue. A future addition could be to have it switch to third person view during CQC, like it does when taking cover etc.
Question: Is there a way to make your gun visible when you ready your weapon? I've seen it work in a mod for GZ, as seen here. Would love to see this eventually.
Technically this is implemented but it is complicated. The dither effect has to be overridden and I'm not sure of a way to do this without cheat engine. There are solutions out there I have tried but couldn't get working... I am a bit angry at the youtuber for not crediting the mod or anything, so I can't be sure how this is being achieved. If I do figure it out I'll be sure to make it part of the mod.
For the helicopter issue, it is complicated since there isn't a flag that lets you know you are in the helicopter AFAIK, so I can't detect it... For CQC I have actually implemented this on my end but haven't pushed it as an update since I'm not entirely happy with this delay that exists between when you grab the enemy and when it goes to 3rd person.... Maybe I should just update anyway :/
idk how it is posbile in this game to so smoothli transision betwen fpp and ttp, the horse riding is like in red dead now its great but sadly the invis weapons are not great and in the acc the cam shows the second acc that is outside its the first thing i see while turning on the game :P pls fix
Yes it is possible! In the lua file included with the mod download, the "focal length" values control the FOV of the game. Sadly I don't have a good conversion formula or anything for you, so you'd just have to play around with those values until it looks good :D
Aye brother heres a link to the dithering cheat table you were talking about, the guy stated something about him being able to turn the dithering on for arms and body but i think if you were able to josh with it and get only the head to dither then i think it would fix the clipping issues, ill also attach my values because i have it pretty close with the cheat table cam combo - im running mine out of infinite heaven
local offset_x=0.15 local offset_y=0.675 local offset_z=0.20 local offset2_x,offset2_y,offset2_z,aim_correction,riding_horse,riding_car local custom_distance=-0.25 --Vanilla focal offset value local focal_offset=4 local focal_offset2=11 local custom_cam_auto=true
formatting is a bit borked but the values should have it to about eye level with minimal head clipping hope this helps brotha
Hey, a while back, I ported the original mod to Zeta. I intended to release it sooner, but wanted to wait until Zeta was developed enough. I've also ported Aaom's Improved Framework and updated it to have a mod menu with camera settings and a more convenient way to switch camera presets. I'll be releasing this shortly since it might help modders out.
Since the permissions of this mod are open, I'd like to implement this mod as its own FPS mode for the port, if that's alright with you.
Great mod, but is there no way to toggle between 1st and 3rd?
I play with controller but thought and might be holding in the R3, (which I have to R1 so I can use that nice little zoom all the time without killing my thumb trying to hold the joystick in) or double camera reset button, I have a pretty custom controller setup for this game but think I've tired all I can think of. I wouldn't want to be locked into this view my entire play but would love to use it at times so just wondering would I have to quit the game and keep messing with snakebite if I want to change perspectives, or am I missing something simple? If you can't toggle view, is that hard to implement?
Thanks for this awesome mod either way, I've just started getting back into this, first on PC, and it's just one of the best games ever made. Really wish it had more mod support even.
You certainly can toggle view and I am incredibly dumb for forgetting to include the controls :D
It should be holding your zoom button (not ads but the actual zoom zoom), and up on the d-pad (or arrow key on keyboard) to disable the mod. Zoom + down on the d-pad will re-enable the mod!
Oh thats awesome man, thanks. I'll go try it now. Also the 1st person in the Jeeps is perfect, was super zoomed in for me before but now I can see the steering wheels and even full arms, looks great.
Edit to ask; is it easy to make a version of this that only changes the ADS perspective but everything else still 3rd person? To clarify, everything is like vanilla except when you aim down sights you would get your mod's better look at the gun in hand. I'll still mostly play in 3rd person but the view when aiming down sights with this mod is much better than the super zoomed in aiming in the base game. You see much more of the weapon and hand. My ultimate choice would be that I could just use this mod for the ADS, AND when I use the games 1st person driving. No sure how hard this is for you but if it's something you'd be up for, I bet lot of folks would love the better ADS and driving view but still keep their 3rd camera. I like the Hitman style camera mod myself doe 3rd person, so nice not to zoom in when crawling or sprinting lol.
Edit; ok so what I was hoping for above, the mod already works this way for anyone wondering. Meaning you can install it, then just toggle it off in game to have third person, (hold zoom and press d-pad down to go back to 3rd person, d-pad up while holding zoom to go back to 1st), and you'll still get the better 1st person weapon aim and also the better 1st person in vehicles when you change just by using the games 1st person switching for both aim or vehicle.
Definity a must have mod for me even as primarily 3rd person player, thanks a bunch soldier!
Final edit...hopefully lol; ok so it actually doesn't work as well for 3rd person players as I thought for vehicles its not automatic meaning you have to active the mod to get the good 1st person driving view, but you can still keep the good ADS view when you go back to 3rd person on foot, just the vehicles for some reason you need to re toggle it to get back to normal 3rd person when you get out. Not sure if it can be made to stay there automatically when you get in and out of vehicles, no biggie but it really is the perfect view for 1st person driving. Maybe would need to be optional mod, just for the better 1st person driving and aiming?
Haha yeah I would like to accommodate 3rd person players more with some tweaks, so I'll look into it when I have some time... I wish snakebite had a config system (someone let me know if they do), though maybe I could leverage infinite heavens config usage.... Anyway I will look into the issues with 3rd person :)
Is there a way to make the body visible? guns n such
Edit : i found *Dither removal from cheat engine* and it works perfectly fine alltough making the body visible reveals the camera is not bound to the head and rather the chest this means tons of clipping i can understand why you would not want to make the body visible but could you make a separate camera angle that sets the camera height to the head?
This is something I could look into... I tried to use the dither removal while working on this mod but for some reason it wasn't working. Could you link me the cheat table you are using so I can be sure? If I have time I will maybe make a seperate version with different offsets so it looks better with dither removal.
