Ulx Thirdperson Command

[|Legion|]

Hey! I was wondering... How would I make a command that would make you go into third person view?

Example of command:

"!thirdperson" or "ulx thirdperson", etc.? :/

Thanks!

Here you go type in "!3p" into chat to toggle third-person on or off

local on = false 

local function toggle()

	on = !on

	if on == true then

		print( 'enabled' )
		
		LocalPlayer():PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTTALK, "Third person mode enabled." )

	else

		print( 'disabled')
		
		LocalPlayer():PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTTALK, "Third person mode disabled." )

	end

end


hook.Add( "ShouldDrawLocalPlayer", "ThirdPersonDrawPlayer", function()

	if on and LocalPlayer():Alive() then

		return true

end )

hook.Add( "CalcView", "ThirdPersonView", function( ply, pos, angles, fov )

	if on and ply:Alive() then

		local view = {}
		view.origin = pos - ( angles:Forward() * 70 ) + ( angles:Right() * 20 ) + ( angles:Up() * 5 )
		view.angles = ply:EyeAngles() + Angle( 1, 1, 0 )
		view.fov = fov

		return GAMEMODE:CalcView( ply, view.origin, view.angles, view.fov )

	end

end )

concommand.Add( "thirdperson_toggle", toggle )

end

if ( SERVER ) then

function ulx.thirdperson( calling_ply )

	calling_ply:SendLua([[RunConsoleCommand("thirdperson_toggle")]])	

end
local thirdperson = ulx.command( "Utility", "ulx thirdperson", ulx.thirdperson, {"!3p"}, true )
thirdperson:defaultAccess( ULib.ACCESS_ALL )
thirdperson:help( "Toggles third person mode" )

end

The code toggles the command just type in !3p again

[|Legion|]

So I typed "!thirdperson"... It didn't do anything, do you HAVE to type "!3p"?

Not by the looks of it no, but why didn't you just try doing !3p as well before posting?

Obviously.

Look at the script "{"!thirdperson","

Pretty sure ulx.command doesn't even accept tables for command parameters.

That's what I was thinking, but I mean I gave brandonj the benefit of the doubt. My skill < His lol

Well, "!thirdperson" works. I knew it did, I guess I fucked the script up some how, now it works! Thanks!

[awesomeasa6]

Good Lua, but with some weapon the 3p is not working well like stun stick arrest stick etc, how we can fix it ?

[Exploderguy]

why did you bump and old thread....

[Acecool]

Instead of adding ShouldDrawLocalPlayer hook in all the thirdperson scripts, why not just set view.drawviewer = true; in CalcView... Shorter, easier and everything can be done in one hook ( for display.. control would be InputMouseApply, or whatever.. )

Edit: Dang, I didn't even notice the date either.... This should be locked...

I recently installed this and now after deleting it it's still in my server even after being gone out of my FTP and I can't remove this third person I need help perma removing this from my Server.
