Hey guys!

I am in love with the idea of third person shooters and I was wondering, is there a mod for third person?

Are you a coder? Because I am pretty desparate and I am lazy. I don't exactly know how to rig it so that it can be third person...

I know JavaScript not Angel Script which OpenSpades uses. Though it would not take much work as you are just changing the position of the camera and how aiming is done, I do not have time to look at the code.

You could always ask around, but I don't know if anyone would do it.

It's also not going to happen because it would give you an unfair advantage, you would be able to see more.

most of the UI is moved to angelscript now, aswell as the positioning and displaying of first / third person models.

(the actual rendering is still c++/ogl)

Well if it is a script then only certain servers will have it, so that's something to keep in mind.
