thirdperson_enhanced_toggle	Command	Toggles thirdperson mode

thirdperson_etp_smoothing_speed	Number(0-100)	Thirdperson camera position smoothing speed/strength. Controls how responsive camera position is transitioned. Higher the value - more responsive. Low values useful for cinematic filmmaking. Works only if thirdperson_etp_smoothing is 1

If you're familiar with source engine console variables editing, then you could do interesting stuff with these variables. For example, here's a bind command that switches your shoulder side when you press B key.

bind b "toggle thirdperson_etp_offset_y -40 40"

Bugs

• Camera may be "broken" by addons impacting camera, less commonly movement. If you enabled addons that include those things, it is highly propable that they will conflict with this addon.

Dev explanation: That is due to CalcView hook override, any addon that overrides that hook and returns something might conflict with this addon. I could've changed the hook priority to high for those using ULiB but decided not to, cos the addon is not supposed to work with other addons that modify view angles. If you REALLY want some POPULAR addon to work with this addon, you could ask in comments, if I'm free and in the mood for some fixing, I'll try to make it compatible if it's possible.
