Jim's Third Person Interaction

Jim's Third Person Interaction is a third-person interaction and targeting helper for OpenMW.

The goal is simple: make interacting with the world feel better when playing in third person. Instead of relying only on the default first-person-style interaction feel, this mod gives the player clearer feedback about what they are looking at and what can be activated, taken, talked to, opened, or stolen.

It is built for players who prefer third-person Morrowind, especially when using camera, combat, movement, or controller-focused setups.

This is not a full UI overhaul. It focuses on interaction readability and feedback.
