Playing The Witcher in 1st person

[GlobalExplorer]

Hey, there is this very simply mod that allows to play TW in first person perspective. I dont know about you but for me this simple change turned my perception of the game 100%. Turning what was a somewhat arcadish experience into a classic 1st person RPG on a level with VtM Bloodlines. With this mod and the EE, TW is absolutely fabulous.

Considering how easy the mod is, I think it was a huge oversight by CDProject that they forgot to enable this by default. The camera might have pissed off quite a few PC players like me.

Highly recommended!! Credits to Felldude for making this.

I use 1st person when I walk about, and change to 3rd person (F1) for combat. Works great!!

P.S. Don't forget to apply this small change, otherwise the camera defaults to pointing to the ground, which is a bit annoying:

If you change TPP MinDist to -0.1 the 1st person camera will always start facing straight ahead!
