When 3rd person is actvated in HL1 you only se the player from the side, is there any way i can make it so that i see him from the back like all the other 3rd person games?

Use the console command "chase_active 1" instead of "thirdperson." Don't ask me why they made it so thirdperson uses a side view.
Also, you can adjust the camera by using "chase_*" commands. I'm not sure if it works for the thirdperson command, though.

Ah, thanks! Im not really a player so i hardly know any console commands at all... I mostly just map..
SECOND Q: Is there any way i can lock it in this mode, so that you can?t switch back to first person? I want to make a 3rd person mod

Get a compiler and source SDK and look in some tutorials.

It would take ages to learn!

no, having a little line that executes chase_active 1 shouldn't be to hard.

It will take at least a basic understanding op programming to do that, M_gargantua. So yeah, if you want to learn programming, go with this. If that's none of your bussiness, leave it, or ask someone else to do it.

I downloaded the hl1 sdk once and I had no idea what I was doing, even though I have experience in c and c++. It was just a bunch of txt files and sruff. I couldn't find anything!

Then you didn't look in the folders that contained the source code, VOX. The SDK contains more than just that, there's some model exporters and compilers and other tools and their code in there as well, as far as I can remember.
