Kurgan Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 Finally another tweak/option emerges! Upon the suggestion of Crow_nest I checked it out and it's rather cool (except with the TIE Bomber). Type \cg_fpls 1 in the console (just like the ill-fated first person saber) and (this only works if you have an actual saber in use) you can get into a vehicle and it will be first person. Parts of the vehicle are transparent (looks odd on some vehicles) so you can see through and the camera will "swoop" a bit when you're turning, but rather interesting. Combine it with \cg_fov 100 to give you a bit wider view and you're set! I tried it with AT-ST, Swoops, TIE Fighters, Bombers (bad), Z-95's and X-wings. It doesn't work for Emplaced guns though, but the rest it's pretty cool. The best is probably with the TIE Fighter, it looks almost perfect. Thanks again! PS: To switch back to normal, simply type \cg_fpls 0 and \cg_fov 80 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jon_hill987 Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 That looks cool, I'll try it when I get JA back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurgan Posted May 23, 2004 Author Share Posted May 23, 2004 Sadly, the TIE Advanced, TIE Bomber/2, Shuttle, Falcon, and Y-Wing are all pretty much unusable in first person combat. However, the TIE Interceptor and Awing look pretty good. The Xwing and Z95 are ugly, but functional. More pics: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PR-0927 Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 Hmm, I tried it, odd, isn't it... The AT-ST one is sorta weird, the TIE Interceptor and TIE Fighter look really cool though. The A-wing looks cool in first-person too. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-8252 Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 The AT-AT is unusable too, bummer. Although up in that AT-ST crushing Rebel scum is pretty neat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crow_Nest Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 I find using 1st person in vehicles better, while flying my tie in destroyer, its easier to aim and shoot at enemy ships even with a high ping. btw, thanks for putting this up Kurgan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurgan Posted June 3, 2004 Author Share Posted June 3, 2004 No prob! I bet this info will be of interest to OJP too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keshire Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Should be adjustable with trueview. Since they don't have eyes I don't know if it'll default to the model origin or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crow_Nest Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Uh, Kurgan if i remembered correctly, i wasnt the one who suggested 1st person, it was some guy (cant remember his name) who said "we need first person ships". But i was the one who suggested using cg_fpls 1, and switch to jedi class (cg_fpls 1 only has effect when you are using a saber/jedi class) I think we should give that guy credit too. Whoever he is...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly several people have said that, but if it was FATMAN, psyguy, king of the jawas, or A.I.V.A.S., then chances are it was me, as those are a few of the names I was using then.

I lost count of how many times I said it, so chances are it probably was me, no garuntees though, as I have a really crappy memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
