About this project
What does glideview add?
This mode will switch to third person view when gliding, riding elk or sailing boat
then switch back to first person view upon landing, or unmounting elk/boat
For now you can still control the camera manually, but the on/off will still happen
the camera modes can be configured within glideview.json
{
"default_view": "first", # "first is for first person"
"elk_view": "overhead", # "first is the thrid person with free cam"
"boat_view": "first",
"glide_view": "overhead",
"other_mount_view": "third",
"sit_view": "overhead",
"sit_pitch": -20 # here this is in degree where -90 is looking down 0 is the horizon and 90 looking straight up
}
It may be weird to explain so this is a demo of the mod triggering when sit, but only when looking at specific angle
