M Viewmodel – Custom ADS Viewmodel Positions + Third-Person Animations
Hey again!
Yesterday I had an idea, and today I’m bringing it to you.
I was testing some weapon addons, but unfortunately, most of them were too heavy for my PC — FPS dropped a lot.
So, as you’ll see in the preview images, I’m using a slightly modified version of the Simple Weapons addon and the classic Half-Life pistol to demonstrate what my addon does — and the best part: it doesn’t lower your FPS!
This test was done using all of my currently installed addons, so the way the weapon recoils or moves in the video is influenced by that setup as well.
Over time, I’ll be listing the addons I use so you can get the same look if you want.
I’ll admit I’m a bit impatient — I could have polished this more before releasing it, but I was excited to share it early.
So I’d really appreciate it if you could help me test it! Let me know if you have any suggestions or if you find bugs or issues — feedback is very welcome!

Notes
– Does not override SWEP base code — fully non-intrusive.
– You can adjust the viewmodel in real time while testing, which makes things easier — but it might be a little tricky to understand how it works at first.
– It doesn’t necessarily have to be used for ironsights — with some imagination, you can use it for other cool effects too!
