AiRBLaDE 0 Posted November 8, 2005 As everyone who plays operation flashpoint knows, the game always starts in first person mode. Is there anything I can edit in the config or some other game file that will force my game to start itself in 3rd person view for a game? I wanted to change this because whenever im playing the campaigns I always hate having to change from first to 3rd person view. could someone help with this?

Airbourne Alchaholic 0 Posted November 8, 2005 You only have to push one button to get from 1st to 3rd person view, it doesn't take that much effort or time. It's "Enter" on your numpad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
