3rd Person VATS

[Slaughters]

So, I really enjoy playing in 3rd person, but hate when I'm forced into first person after using VATS. I imagine it wouldn't be too difficult to stop the switch to first person when VATS is activated and left. In intense combat, when I'm suddenly switched to first person, I can become rather confused.

 

Also, if it's possible to remain in 3rd person during conversations with NPCs, that would be nice too.

 

I at least hope this request is simple.

The switch after VATS would be possible with not much work, but the conversations in first person I think are hardcoded into the game, since otherwise the camera could easily wind up behind something and block the view, which would ruin the effect (also the first 2 were in floating head style, which I think is what they were trying to replicate).

 

Off the top of my head, a quest script like:

BEGIN GameMode
if IsPC1stPerson
	TapControl 13
endif
END

might do what you want. It might need more condition checks to ensure it doesn't happen too often.
