thanks man , i'll copy that . what i mean is having 3rd person view asigned to a key like "f1" for rogue spear or "c" for deadlydozen if at all possible . but thx anyways .

To bind it to a key you would type into the console something like:
bind <key> toggle cg_3rd_person
where <key> is a valid key like F11 or F12.

Or you could make a file called custom.cfg in you MOHAA/main directory and put the bind in there and it would get run everytime you start the game. If you put the bind in a cfg file then you need to do it like this:
bind <key> "toggle cg_3rd_person"
w/ the quotes and again where <key> is a valid key.

But keep in mind that w/ v1.1 this cvar is cheat protected so this will only work in SP. Also for the people having trouble, another thing to try is in addition to the '+set cheats 1' add '+set thereisnomonkey 1' to the end of your command line shortcut as well. I have heard that is needed as well for cheats to work, but I am not sure.

Yeah, you have to set +set cheats 1 in the command line - should have mentioned that. I can't see why anyone would want to use it in SP, let alone in MP. It's bloody difficult. I am using version 1.10, by the way.

I might post some screenshots tonight, if I'm not too busy.

I think that using third person in multiplayer would be almost impossible, where would you have the crosshair, besides 3rd person view would take all of the fun out of the game.

Not sure if this was already posted, but I haven't been here in a while. Anyway, to play the game in the 3rd Person, type cg_3rd_person 1 into the console.

If you bound 'toggle cg_3rd_person' to a key and adjusted the 3rd person angles, it could be turned on and off easily and used to see around corners w/o revealing yourself.

that is why it would be bad for 3rd person to be enabled piedude. we're not saying it would be better for someone to play with it on. but to be able to toggle it would give someone an advantage. I dont really consider it a cheat, but it shouldnt be in this game.
