How to alter the 3rd person view?

(1/1)

medicjo:
Hey guys, i've just got a powerful enough rig to get me into arma 2, i was a big fan of ofp, and wanted to get the alternate 3rd person view that some mods started adding into arma 2, as it doesnt seem to have been done so far (unless anyone knows of any?)

Here's a vid of what i'm talking about in ofp:

About 1:30 and some at the beginning too.
Also i gather people have done this for arma I:

Someone posted (for Arma I) that you have to do this:

"you have to create of course a MOD folder, and then open the main config.cpp, and find these lines:
CODEextCameraPosition[]

Then change the value inside the {}

Does this still work for arma II? And (i'm a noob) how do i create a mod folder? Does the config.cpp mean a copy i've put in that mod folder? And what goes in the []? X, Y, Z coordinates?

Many thanks guys

Hi medicjo
You links dont work. Please try again.

Arh! ..... because you pasted a copy from another forum.

Iv found moving the 3rd person view messes up you aiming points and the bullets go off-center.
I used "@DFS 3rd person" mod, available for arma2. search armaholic downloads and you should find it.
