Everything but the mouse wheel scroll was classic in my memory.

Mouselook will now work a little differently when in the first two
third-person camera modes (overhead and chase). They will work similarly to first-person mouselook (i.e. your character's heading will change when you move the mouse left or right, the left and right movement keys will cause your player to strafe, and the camera angle will pitch up or down when you move the mouse forward or back). These changes should make those first two third-person camera modes more useful.

Third person camera sucked for over 2 years, that's why most people used first person a lot.

In this post, Secrets mentioned he may try to help recreate classic 3rd person, not sure if he wound up working on it at all

Sounds like something I'll cook up this weekend and submit for Green.

I know exactly the situation this is referencing. Would be great to have it era locked.
