This plugin allows the players to change their viewmode to thirdperson, if the admin allows it.

Flag "n" is needed for admins that wish to change viewmodes if the players are not allowed.

Commands:

amx_cvar amx_viewmode 1			//	enables public viewmode, 0 disables.
					//	the same can be done with the other CVARS

Cvars:

amx_viewmode 1				//	1 enables public viewmode, 0 disables
amx_viewmode_allowrnd 1			//	if 0, nobody can randomly choose a viewmode
amx_viewmode_force_thirdperson 0	//	if 1, will force thirdperson view
amx_viewmode_force_upleft 0		//	if 1, will force upleft view
amx_viewmode_force_topdown 0		//	if 1, will force topdown view

Player Commands:

say /firstperson
say /thirdperson
say /randomview

IMPORTANT: Make sure that the model included is saved into the models folder! It sounds stupid but you need it!

UPDATE: Version 2 released!

Viewmodes can now be forced on players!

Players can say all of the following::

• /firstperson - Sets normal mode
• /thirdperson - Sets 3rd person mode
• /randomview - Chooses a random mode (4 different modes including normal)

The following CVARS may be used:

• amx_viewmode 1 // if 0, plugin is only available to admins
• amx_viewmode_allowrnd 1 // if 0, nobody can randomly choose a viewmode

Force cvars:

• amx_viewmode_force_thirdperson 0 // if 1, will force thirdperson view
• amx_viewmode_force_upleft 0 // if 1, will force upleft view
• amx_viewmode_force_topdown 0 // if 1, will force topdown view

* IMPORTANT NOTE * - Due to the method used to manipulate the users view, this plugin may cause lag in some cases. This is very rare, however if you install this plugin and find that your server is lagging, try removing the plugin and see if that was the cause.

* IMPORTANT NOTE * Number 2 - Beta version of viewmode version 3 has been released, the only difference is this:

Cvars:

amx_viewmode 1			//	1 enables public viewmode, 0 disables
amx_viewmode_allowrnd 1		//	if 0, nobody can randomly choose a viewmode
amx_viewmode_force 0		//	if 1, will force thirdperson view
amx_viewmode_force 0		//	if 2, will force upleft view
amx_viewmode_force 0		//	if 3, will force topdown view

I am unable to test the new version, but please test it for me and give me feedback, so that I can fix it

I thought third person on counter-strike is illegal and can be considered as hacking.

[godlike]

I tought this already exist.
And i dont think this hacking the only thing you do is changing your view
its even harder to aim at someone

This is server-side.

At first I thought it set everyone's camera angle to third-person when the cvar was set to 1

Also, this plugin doesn't even compile. Moving to unapproved for now, then trashing if it's not fixed soon.

[Throstur]

It's fixed.

As much as these exist already, people have had problems with it, so this one should be easier for people to use.

good work...exactly what i was looking for...

BUT 2 other Questions...

1. Could y disable the Transparence for the Models

2. Could y add the upside view like XunTric does for his Menue PLUGIN




>upsideview< THE BEST VIEW ...but the aim is a little bit lowerleft than

[NemesisDelta]

the set_view function causes extreme lag. This function is not recommended to be used in actual gameplay (usually just for plugin testing).
