If you're familiar with source engine console variables editing, then you could do interesting stuff with these variables.
For example, here's a bind command that switches your shoulder side when you press B key.
bind b "toggle thirdperson_etp_offset_y -40 40"

Bugs
  • Camera may be "broken" by addons impacting camera, less commonly movement. If you enabled addons that include those things, it is highly propable that they will conflict with this addon.
    Dev explanation: That is due to CalcView hook override, any addon that overrides that hook and returns something might conflict with this addon. I could've changed the hook priority to high for those using ULiB but decided not to, cos the addon is not supposed to work with other addons that modify view angles. If you REALLY want some POPULAR addon to work with this addon, you could ask in comments, if I'm free and in the mood for some fixing, I'll try to make it compatible if it's possible.
Additional Information:
  • This addon will be removed if the original author wishes so.
  • All media (except for my personal note) comes from the original addon.
  • LUA Code used in this addon has been imported from Original GMA I had in my Gmod Directory.
  • Currently the addon is now supported by the original creator.

Please, don't add us to friends and don't leave comments on our profiles regarding the addon. If you're having problems with this addon, use the comment section and/or discussions page on this addon.

@driv whats that playermodel
REKTMASTER17 13 Mar @ 4:41pm 
an FOV slider would work, but its more like changing the position of the camera when aiming. To like make it seem closer or something similar. It might break some camera movement in some way but it would definitely add to them immersion.
