Auto 1st, 3rd Peron Camera

[Mailamea]

This awesome mod has a lot of potential, of course because Kurtee is the one that made it.

But there is one problem with, the default camera is set to 1st person, meaning when your are looking at npc or doors, or activators, the camera switches you to 3rd person instead of 1st.

 

My request? Can someone set it so that the default perpective is 3rd person,

 

So:

When i draw a bow ---> 3rd person auto switches to first.

Draw a weapon ---> 3rd person auto switches to first.

Look at activators ---> 3rd person auto switches to first.

Doors ---> 3rd person auto switches to first.

Npc to talk too ---> 3rd person auto switches to first.

Items to loot ---> 3rd person auto switches to first.

chests ---> 3rd person auto switches to first.

etc ---> 3rd person auto switches to first.

 

I hope its possible since it can be edited cause it has an ini file.

 

Thanks

I will take a look at it. It seems possible but it's going to be a load of work.

 

So you want it to go that when you draw the bow it switches to 3rd person until you go to shot and it switches to 1st?

[Mailamea]

Exactly. Its ok even if i just draw my bow and it will switch to first, im fine with it.

 

My main concern is it turns you to 3rd person when looking at npc and activators, because it is defaulted in 1st person camera.

But it already does that

 

E.g. The player can now have the bow ready in third-person view and the mod will not switch to first-person view until the player starts to pull on the bow.

Casting and using a staff is treated the same way.

 

It's on my 'to do' list either way.

 

EDIT: Now first on the list.

Status so far. Explains how I did each one and how it triggers.

 

When i draw a bow ---> 3rd person auto switches to first when going to fire. (Already does it)

Draw a weapon ---> 3rd person auto switches to first when drawing weapon. (Already does it)

Look at activators ---> 3rd person auto switches to first when hovering over them. (Already does it)

Doors ---> 3rd person auto switches to first when in front of them about to go through. (Already does it)

Npc to talk too ---> 3rd person auto switches to first when facing and hovering over a NPC. (Already does it)

Items to loot ---> 3rd person auto switches to first when standing near and hovering over. (Already does it)

chests, horse ---> 3rd person auto switches to first when looking at and hovering over. (Already does it)

etc ---> 3rd person auto switches to first. (Already does it)

 

So unless I am missing something, done something wrong or misunderstood you this already does what you want it to do.

Huh? Mines different I haven't modified anything, but when talking to activators and npc, its 1st switching to 3rd.

[Ark of Truth]

Ok do this.

 

1. Deactivate the auto camera esp.

2. Make sure the ini file is in the ini folder. (Without it the function will work backwards.)

3. Load up your game and save it again while in 3rd person.

4. Activate the mod again and load your game.

5. Run around in the 3rd person, if you switch to 1st randomly press the 'R' key to go back to third.

6. You should now get the same results as me.

 

Any issues just come back here.

Lol I guess I was such an idiot a started the mod with my save in 1st person view. Thanks ark

[Ark of Truth]

Working correctly now?

 

Not a idiot. It's just not clearly explained the read me. Took me a while to get it working the way I wanted it to.

 

Your welcome Mai
