📋 About This Mod

This mod enables you to experience Borderlands 3 in third-person mode, while seamlessly transitioning to a first-person perspective during aiming and shooting.

NOTE: Thanks to Phnx the mod now doesn't rely on hotfix (works offline), If you have previously installed the mod that had hotfix then remove the file from ohl_mods folder. And if anyone finds any mistakes or improvements for the code let me know.

Ultimate third person mod by jackcabrero already does this but it has a couple of issues like the character movement stops whenever you aim down sights, camera drag when switching modes and no third person while sliding or slamming, which were making it harder to use the mod hence I looked around and ended up making this with the help of chatgpt as i'm not a programmer. The mod still has its limitations due to how the game works like the reload animations are generic and reload sound effects are low depending on how high you have the camera offset, while in third person.

Installation Guide

  • []The Gamepass version is currently not supported.


Step 1: Extract Mod File

After downloading the mod, extract the contents. You should have the following file:

  • []CameraToggle.sdkmod


Step 2: Install Plugin Loader

  • []Apparently, this step is not needed as PythonSDK Mod Manager comes with its own plugin. If you have it already installed, then remove the file "d3d11.dll" located at Borderlands 3\OakGame\Binaries\Win64 and the file "pluginLoader.ini" in the plugins folder. This also fixes the Steam overlay not working issue.


Step 3: Install PythonSDK Mod Manager


Step 4: Add Camera Toggle SDK Mod

  • []Copy file "CameraToggle.sdkmod" from my mod into this folder:

Steam\steamapps\common\Borderlands 3\sdk_mods

Step 5: Enable Camera Toggle in Game

  • []Launch Borderlands 3.

    []In the Main Menu, go to Mods > Camera Toggle > Enabled > switch to ON
