# First Person Viewmodel
## Forcing First Person Mode
Make the following changes on your `CharacterConfigSetup` component:
1. `Start In First Person = true`
2. `Character Camera Mode = Fixed`
## Custom Viewmodel Arms & Animations
Airship spawns viewmodel arms by default but doesn't animate them at all. Here is how to create a variant of the default CharacterViewmodel arms and edit the animator:
1. Right click in project tab ⇒ Create ⇒ Airship ⇒ Viewmodel Variant
2. Double click the newly created prefab variant to open it
3. Replace the Animator Controller under `AirshipRig` with your own animator
4. Find your `CharacterConfigSetup` component and set the `Custom Viewmodel Prefab` field to your new prefab variant.
### Playing Animations
You can easily access the animator in code using:
```typescript
const animator = Airship.Characters.viewmodel?.anim;
if (animator) {
animator.SetTrigger("Jump");
}
```
