Dead space like tps zooming action

[thommoboy]

I already have my own third person camsra working, how would serb I.add a zoomi (yes I know ung action to it if.i.pdess the right mouse

In the console type:

fov 90 (enter ... look at what is onscreen)
fov 60 (enter ... look at what is onscreen)
fov 30 (enter ... look at what is onscreen)
fov 10 (enter ... look at what is onscreen)

Then type fov 90 in console to restore to what is probably normal.

You can mess with the zoom on a client doing stuffcmd("fov whatever value")

Maybe part of the clue you are looking for

after i add the impulse how would i zoom out because you cannot assign multiple impulses to a single key

note that impulses are unreliable and thus:
a) if you press and release your button fast enough, the mod will see only the release. This is also an issue if they use *any* other impulses at the same sort of time.
b) if a packet is dropped, its possible the mod will see only the press, and not the release.

so make sure its not too unusable if either happens.

if you are targetting DP or FTE, try using DP_VIEWZOOM:
.float viewzoom;
which won't kill the user's fov/sensitivity settings each and every single time they zoom in.

the third person zooming in typical console shooters involve both moving the camera and adjusting the FOV at the same time. You can't seal the deal with a simple zoom alias

for your code i get error: mismatch for == (fieldfloat and float)
