Due To Requests: TF2 Third Person v1.0

This only works with TF2

Description:
-Until I can figure out how to bypass the valve server execute restrictions, this plugin disables all cheat commands except the camera cheats, i.e., "thirdperson"
-Enables various third person view commands for clients and admins.

Installation:
-Download TF2ThirdPerson.smx and place it in your addons/sourcemod/plugins folder.
-Install 1.0.4 SM snapshot

Usage:
-The default taunt bind will toggle between first and third person if it is enabled.
-Admin Command: sm_forcetpv <0|1> - This toggles the forcing of third person view for all clients. If enabled all players at all time will be in third person.
-Admin Command: sm_enabletpv <0|1> - This toggles the access of third person views by clients, if disabled clients taunt bind will not work.
-Admin Command: sm_thirdperson <Name> - Toggles thirdperson on a client, overrides sm_enabletpv but not sm_forcetpv.

Changelog:
v1.0:
-Release

Screenshot:

(Switching between all of the snipers weapons)

Notes:
-If third person is enabled on a client, it will be in effect at all times except for the sniper rifle, This is the only exception.
-The cvar sv_cheats is enabled, but all cheat commands are fully blocked 110% to my knowledge, this is includes case sensative exploits and the impulse commands.
-This was not my preffered way of scripting this, but valve has it scripted so that if sv_cheats is disabled there is no way to render certain things such as the localplayer's weapon, muzzleflash origin, shell origin, and ability to change weapons. I have a partially working script for a disabled sv_cheats third person plugin, if anyone would want the sourcecode to continue it just send me a private message or post here.

I love you!!

Is it suppose to toggle the view for them or just allow it for them to use it?

[DiscoBBQ]

Read the usage, im not sure what your trying to do.
If your trying it on local, taunt bind dosn't register correctly use "sm_forcetpv 1" instead.

Sorry mate, but...this plugin is completely unsafe to use

• Clients will be able to change a shitload of client cvars, they would be normally unable to use because they are cheats (ie mat_wireframe).
• This plugin doesn't block cheat impulses (even tho if Pinkfairie is 110% sure about that). You can't block the impulse command that easy, and have you ever thought about how a player sprays a spraylogo eh ?
• It also removes command flags that on the server that shouldn't be removed, it sets every cheat command on the server to FCVAR_SPONLY.

I was able to crash the server with using impulse 201 (for removing entities), and spawning skulls with impulse 83 was also fun, or filling up my ammo with impulse 101

Well when they're SPONLY they cant execute them live. mat_wireframe did work for some reason, though the impulse commands still didn't execute on a live server. It blocks spraying too. The problem is that server can't execute commands on client, and until i can find a way around it I ask the approvers to not approve this.

[ThatGuy]

thanks for trying atleast hehe

Wait does it work?

But you are removing all the other command flags this way too... when you unload the plugin, all the flags+commands are gone forever and there is no way to restore them again.
And impulse commands are still working for me with this plugin. That's why my cheatcontrol plugin needs an own extension for handling impulse, because it isn't a normal command.
+ any client cheat cvars work, not just mat_wireframe.

[DiscoBBQ]

Hmm maybe when I figure out how to bypass the the restriction I'll ask you about using your extension to handle it, Berni. Valve is so frustrating. I don't think it actually saves the command flags, does it?

[berni]

Using SendConVarValue and replicating sv_cheats 1 to the clients to make them think sv_cheats is on would be much easier and at least eliminate the impulse commands usage But client cheat cvars would still work...
