Third Person Crosshair

[drail1602]

I forgot to mention, if you load a save with your weapon/spell drawn, sheathe and then unsheathe to see the camera change in game. Unfortunately, you can't change the camera in game. You have to exit, tweak the values and then restart. There is an in-game command 'saveini', but is not working.

Ok, I think I'm onto it. It might not be a camera problem. In the Skyrim.ini file I was messing around with the f3ParrowTiltUpAngle and set it to 5 and that gets it really close to the horizontal aim. Unfortunately, I don't know the Left/Right line name as I am rather new to all this stuff, but I hope this can help someone and get this problem fix as I hate it very much also

 

EDIT: After much more testing, this doesn't seem to work as well as first believed D: as it really changes at different distances

Proper Aiming Mod for 3rd person aiming:

I use this with fov set to 108 (` for console, "fov ###") and it works perfectly at all zoom levels. 108 may seem a bit extreme to some people, but I love that it gives a much wider/far-out zoom range in 3rd person mode, and allows me to see my whole bow at full draw in 1st person mode. It also places the crosshair more directly above your character. Shots even line up perfectly in first person from just above the tip of my arrow without a crosshair (if anyone knows how to enable crosshair in third person mode only please let me know!). It feels more natural than any other fov I've played in. Keep in mind I am also using the Faster Arrows mod, and have added these lines to C:/Documents/My Games/Skyrim/Skyrim.ini:

 

[Actor]

fVisibleNavmeshMoveDist=12288.0000

[Combat]

f1PArrowTiltUpAngle=0.7

f3PArrowTiltUpAngle=0.7

This affects the gravity and trajectory of the arrow.

Hope this helps :smile:

[EDITS: first fixed URL formatting error, then added a lot more info which I fleshed out/fixed sentence structure with a few more subsequent edits.]

Long Long ago in a Land Far Far away in Nexus there use to be a mod that did exactly what this thread is all about I've been searching for as I just came back to skyrim after being away for 2 years with ESO, which I don't play anymore since they nerfed my character so much it can't compete anymore, but thats another story. But I do recall a mod that use to allow you to adjust the cross hair just after character creation or at anytime of game play it was a MCM menu thing, that you could adjust with, not the easiest to use but was something. So on with the search. hope someone finds it.
