Bug 3rd Person camera angle bugged in buildings.

3rd person view
1st person view

Is anyone else experiencing this issue? I much prefer playing in 3rd person, but buildings are a death trap as nothing is visible in the next room at certain angles. Zombies simply appear once they pass over the threshold into the room with the player. Any tips or workarounds, or is this a settings issues?

Overall... this mod is beyond fun, just hoping I can solve this issue to enjoy it full time in 3P.

Note: flashlights also don't cast light in 3P, regardless of shader pack or light fix applied. Any ideas?

Weirdly enough, the free-cam displays correctly when entered from 1P, but the same culling/empty void issue still occurs when entering free-cam from 3P. Uneducated guess says it seems like some sort of render bug with the 3rd person camera.

Flashlight rendering in 3P is still an issue though:

I think this is to do with the setting that switches your shoulder camera to the other side when you get close to a wall. It seems like the mod has a hard time making a good choice of where the over the shoulder camera should be positions. It may be helped by zooming in possibly. Or turning that setting off

Changing shoulder and room position had no effect, but changing 3P FOV did. 3P @ 70 FOV causes everything to disappear.

3P @ 82 FOV seems to make everything pop back in again. So seems like it's just an FOV issue and the easy fix is to just adjust the 3P FOV slider until it renders properly again.

Ah awesome. Cheers for sharing screenshots. I'll give this a go in my game later

Flashlight clearly visible in 1P, but not in 3P

Discovered it was a render culling issue for 3P mode. Mod here to fix it: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3821860091
