3rd person crosshairs

[Alphadin]

Is it possible to have crosshairs that apear in third person? More specifically for the L4D Survivor's over the shoulder third person.

[phflack]

so, you want a line coming from the center of the screen to the top?
shouldn't be too hard to do

I don't know where you want the crosshair to go

where the player is aiming in 3rd person, for 3rd person shoot outs.

Where the hell can the crosshair point? It's not really easy to do this.

[Alphadin]

I want it at a position where the bullets generally go to when in third person.
If it is incredibly hard to get the general aim point is then don't bother.

won't the same thing in first person work in third person

no

I don't see why not, but you'd have to use an over-the-shoulder playertype.

Not sure if these exist (is the survivor playertype from zombies over-the-shoulder?) though.

could be a 1 way transparent object that is attached to the player.

um wat

i mean to say that it could be achieved by placing a floating crosshair IN FRONT of the player's head, thus it will follow your field of view.
might require a new playertype.

actually yes.

[Awdax]

Yeah, it would not work for the default playertypes. The crosshair would be on the back of your head, making it difficult to aim at others. If this is possible, it should be based off of and work with the Survivor Playertype that comes with Left 4 Block, or the one Space Guy made. But I'm pretty sure they both use the same camera values.

This is as easy, what the forget you lazy bums
