How to bind thirdperson to a key?

[Kurayami ★]

Is there a way to bind thirdperson to a key so i can easily turn thirdperson on/off?

[NotSoMewwo]

Open up the console command and type in

bind "[YOURKEYHERE]" "thirdperson"

If you want it to switch first person then thirdperson over again, type in,

bind "[YOURKEYHERE] "tpm"
alias "tpm" "thirdperson; bind [YOURKEYHERE] fpm"
alias "fpn" "firstperson; bind [YOURKEYHERE] tpm"

Altough, you have to type this everytime you start gmod, so go to your autoexec file in :
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\GarrysMod\garrysmod\cfg\autoexec.cfg
Open it with notepad and paste in the code.

[YOURKEYHERE]'s next double quotation is missed
and

"fpn" is a mistake
correctly "fpm"
So you have to paste this instead:

bind "[YOURKEYHERE]" "tpm"
alias "tpm" "thirdperson; bind [YOURKEYHERE] fpm"
alias "fpm" "firstperson; bind [YOURKEYHERE] tpm"

do you have to put it in between the brackets?

This is the absolute solution I was looking for.
Thank you very much!!

Is it possible to put sv_cheats 1 in the autoexec so I dont have to do it every time?
