Camera dosnt work ;(

MaaXGaz20 · December 29, 2023, 7:04pm

Hi guys. I want the player camera to be moved to Part so I can watch the action from a third person perspective. Nothing happens.

da screens:

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")

local camPenicillin = script.Parent.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild("CamPenicillin")
local proximityPrompt = script.Parent

local function moveCamera(player)
	local originalCamera = player.Camera
	player.Camera = camPenicillin

	print("Camera moved to")

	wait(10)

	player.Camera = originalCamera

	print("Camera returned")
end

proximityPrompt.TriggerEnded:Connect(function()
	local player = Players.LocalPlayer
	if player then
		moveCamera(player)
	else
		print("LocalPlayer not found")
	end
end)

What prints are fired when this is ran? lol why does this have 3 likes

TheRealDoctor900 · December 29, 2023, 7:06pm

The way to get the players camera is localplayer.CurrentCamera not localplayer.camera, also you will need to set the camera to scriptable

LocalScripts don’t run in Workspace

MaaXGaz20 · December 29, 2023, 7:12pm

But how can I depict this in a script? Please help me

TheRealDoctor900 · December 29, 2023, 7:21pm

First create a serverscript into the proximity prompt:

local Proxy = script.Parent

local Event = --Any event location

Proxy.Triggered:Connect(function(playerwhotriggered)
	print('I got triggered')
	Event:FireClient(playerwhotriggered)
end)

Client

local Event =nil --Any event location

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

local Player_Camera = workspace.CurrentCamera

local part_camera = nil -- The part that you want as camera
local rs = game:GetService("RunService")
Event.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
	Player_Camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
	rs.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
		Player_Camera.CFrame = part_camera.CFrame
	end)
	
end)

It really works. Thank you very much!

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Workspace = game:GetService("Workspace")

local CamPos = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Cam"):WaitForChild("CamSpore")
local Event = CamPos
local CamSpore = Workspace:WaitForChild("Spore room")

local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local Player_Camera = Workspace.CurrentCamera
local part_camera = CamSpore:WaitForChild("Camera")
local rs = game:GetService("RunService")

local function returnCameraToPlayer()
	local originalCFrame = Player_Camera.CFrame
	rs.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
		Player_Camera.CFrame = part_camera.CFrame
	end)
	wait(2)  
	Player_Camera.CFrame = originalCFrame
end

Event.OnClientEvent:Connect(returnCameraToPlayer)

There is one problem. When I want to return the camera to the player, nothing happens. No errors in output

Just do Camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom and disconnect the Player_Camera.CFrame = part_camera.CFrame
function

TheBoysPlay_YT · January 11, 2024, 12:17pm

Does this work out for ya?

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local camPenicillin = script.Parent.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild("CamPenicillin")
local proximityPrompt = script.Parent

local function moveCamera(player)
	local originalCameraType = workspace.CurrentCamera.CameraType
	local originalCameraCFrame = workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame

	workspace.CurrentCamera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
	workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame = CFrame.new(camPenicillin.Position)

	print("Camera moved to CamPenicillin")

	wait(10)

	workspace.CurrentCamera.CameraType = originalCameraType
	workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame = originalCameraCFrame

	print("Camera returned to original position")
end

proximityPrompt.TriggerEnded:Connect(function()
	local player = Players.LocalPlayer
	if player then
		moveCamera(player)
	else
		print("LocalPlayer not found")
	end
end)

TheBoysPlay_YT · January 11, 2024, 12:17pm

Or this maybe

local Camera = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
local Part2 = game.Workspace:FindFirstChild("Part2")

if Part2 then
    Camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
    Camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(Part2.Position)
end
``

TheBoysPlay_YT · January 11, 2024, 12:19pm

NOTE: You can change the name Part2 To the name that the part uses that you want to use to change the camera position.

MaaXGaz20 · January 11, 2024, 12:33pm

Bro thank you very much but I already found a solution. I had to do was disable renderSteppedConnection

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Workspace = game:GetService("Workspace")
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")

local CamPos = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Cam"):WaitForChild("CamSpore")
local Event = CamPos
local CamSpore = Workspace:WaitForChild("Spore room")

local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local Player_Camera = Workspace.CurrentCamera
local part_camera = CamSpore:WaitForChild("Cameraa")
local rs = game:GetService("RunService")

local renderSteppedConnection

Event.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
	Player_Camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
	player.Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").Anchored = true

	renderSteppedConnection = rs.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
		Player_Camera.CFrame = part_camera.CFrame
	end)

	wait(5)

	Player_Camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
	renderSteppedConnection:Disconnect()  
	player.Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").Anchored = false
end)

napastnikiek1 · January 11, 2024, 1:26pm

you need to change a few things

Use current camera
local Camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
Change camera type in function “MoveCamera”
Camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
put local script to StarterPlayerScripts

full script :

local Camera = workspace.CurrentCamera

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")

local camPenicillin = script.Parent.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild("CamPenicillin")
local proximityPrompt = script.Parent

local function moveCamera(player)
	Camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
	Camera.CFrame =  camPenicillin.CFrame

	print("Camera moved to")

	wait(10)
	
	Camera.CFrame = player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame
	Camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom

	print("Camera returned")
end

proximityPrompt.TriggerEnded:Connect(function()
	local player = Players.LocalPlayer
	if player then
		moveCamera(player)
	else
		print("LocalPlayer not found")
	end
end)

is the direction of the CFrame
you need to set it to the place where the camera is to be pointed

If something still doesn’t work, write to me
