Zens 1PP PVP Mod

What Is This? This mod is for 3PP servers who want to lock players into 1PP view when they are in PVP. It's designed mainly for PVE and RP servers that want to allow 3rd person mode for adventurers, but don't want to allow players to exploit 3rd person in combat to look around corners or over fences etc. There are two ways it works (either can be enabled/disabled in config): - You can lock the view to 1PP based on what item the player has in their hands (guns, melee, grenades etc) - You can lock the view to 1PP based on a proximity to a map location (military bases, contamination zones, certain POIs etc) When either of these conditions are triggered, the player is locked into 1PP view and must wait X amount of seconds (60 secs by default) before the 3PP view hotkey will work again after leaving the area or putting their gun away. To lock the player into 1PP mode when certain items are in their hands you can add the specific item class name or the item's parent class name to the ViewRestrictedItems list (eg. add "Hatchet" to restrict hatchets to 1PP, or add "ToolBase" to restrict all knives/hatchets/etc). If you only want to disable 3PP mode in certain areas and allow 3PP mode with weapons in hand elsewhere on the map, just remove the values from ViewRestrictedItems so the config looks like: "ViewRestrictedItems": [] You can also disable the 1PP view lock while inside a vehicle if you prefer, in order to stop the player being locked into 1PP mode randomly when driving past a military base or other view-restricted area. Installation Instructions: Install this mod like any other mod - copy it into your server's root directory, add it to your launch parameters, and make sure to copy the .bikey into your server keys. This mod must be installed on both the server & client. Once the mod is installed, on the next server start a JSON config will be generated in your server profiles folder (usually root/profiles/Zenarchist/Zen3ppConfig.json) The default config automatically generates 1PP zones across military bases and checkpoints for Chernarus, Livonia and Namalsk, but any modded maps will require you to create your own. Just use a tool like izurvive to get the coordinates and radius.

I do my best, but these mods are offered as-is. If there's a problem, you have the source code and my permission to fix it yourself and upload a fixed version to the workshop without any credit necessary. It's all free. You can repack this mod if you like, and do anything else you want with it for that matter.
