How to play Bellwright in First Person

How to play Bellwright in First Person
This gives you a keybind to toggle between Third Person and First Person view modes freely while you play.

The Camera view or "PointOfView" Key bind mapping is not set nor is it accessible by default in this current Early Access release of Bellwright for some odd reason. Rebinding the point of view does not show up as a key in the Input Controls section of the Options menu at this time in Bellwright either, so I have spent some time discovering a simple set of solutions for those that want an immersive first person experience in Bellwright now.
This could make or break you wanting to buy Bellwright but its not pretty (yet?)

You'll need to modify the Bellwright GameUserSettings INI file in order to toggle between First Person view and Third Person View

Either download my default modified version of the ini files here on Nexus Mods and overwrite yours or:

First Person Camera Mod - View Mode Toggle Key Bind - Nexus Mods [www.nexusmods.com]
https://www.nexusmods.com/bellwright/mods/87

Step 1: Find the GameUserSettings.ini
The files are located in the Bellwirght AppData directory, generally located at the following drive address:

C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Bellwright\Saved\Config\Windows

Step 2: Open up the GameUserSettings.ini

Step 3: Paste the following lines of code at the bottom of the file ( one space below where the "[ScalabilityGroups]" block appears):

[/script/mist.mistuserinputsettings] ActionBindings=(Name="PushToTalk",Mapping=(ActionName="PushToTalk",bShift=False,bCtrl=False,bAlt=False,bCmd=False,Key=None),AlternativeMapping=(ActionName="",bShift=False,bCtrl=False,bAlt=False,bCmd=False,Key=None),bModified=True) ActionBindings=(Name="PointOfView",Mapping=(ActionName="PointOfView",bShift=False,bCtrl=False,bAlt=False,bCmd=False,Key=V),AlternativeMapping=(ActionName="",bShift=False,bCtrl=False,bAlt=False,bCmd=False,Key=None),bModified=True)

Step 4: Save the GameUserSettings.ini

Step 5: Launch Bellwright and when in-game press the V Key in order to toggle the view between Third Person and First person.
You can change the "Key=V" to your liking, but you must not have another key that overwrite the same key or it will not work.

After launching your game and changing any setting the GameUserSettings.ini file will be populated more variables after your new lines, you may change these in-game throug the settings, or further edit the GameUserSettings.ini if you wish.

To generate a new version of the .ini files you can simply remove or delete the ones that are there.
I did rebind the "PushToTalk" key in order to make the "PointOfView" key work. If you don't, it won't work.

It is important to note that:
At the time of writing/publishing this Bellwright is in Early Access version v 0.0.36175 (36175)
Head or view bobbing is prevalent while using First Person
and the player's head will often clip into the camera while using bows/archery.

Enjoy.

This is now included by default with the keybind Shift+Ctrl+Alt+X. If you want to change the keybind you still have to access the config though.

Does this still work? I am trying to get this to work with no success, do I need to play in co-op mode for this to work? I am currently playing single player
