Hello!
Is it in any way possible to implement crosshairs in the chasecam views.
I would like to know if its possible to build some third-person RPGs
Crosshairs in chasecam?

Not the actual internal ZDoom crosshair AFAIK, but you can use HUDMessage with sprites to make your own crosshair I suppose...
Re: Crosshairs in chasecam?
Having a crosshair in chasecam mode means that you're either going to have a crosshair over your character, which won't help with aiming, or it's going to be obscured by your character, which won't help with ANYTHING.
I mean, I guess if your player sprite is transparent or tiny or oddly-shaped it could work.

I wish you people would tell me these things before I implement them. Would save me a lot of time from actually using them. Sheesh.

Crosshair changes color when over a shootable target. The farther away it is, the larger it scales.

Made Enjay's flashlight part of the crosshair setup, so it's not tied to the player's weapon.

FFFFFFFFF gonna have to improvise, give me a minute
edit:
I was referring to zdoom's standard crosshair/chasecam/doomguy, and not your awesome custom work. Obviously with the proper scripting knowledge you can do just about anything, as your example shows.

What about a laser sight projectile?
