Hi, I’m looking for a way to watch my demos in thirdperson, like with an extra camera that I control similar to CSGO demos. It seems like there’s nothing to find anywhere about this topic so I’m asking here. I wanna do like some cinematic montage type of stuff with movement tricks. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Hi! Set “sv\_cheats” to 1 and type “cam\_command 1”.

I can position the camera relative to the player now, but is there a way I can postition it in relation to the map?
