Camera Help needed!

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hey guys! I’m currently struggling to be able to adapt my camera to work of how i want it to, here’s a video of the issue!

I wish to make the camera also face the same direction as the humanoidrootpart while having a constant offset, similar to a over the shoulder camera.

Why not just use attach? Well it leads to some very funky results:

Here’s my current script relating to the camera!

Run_Service.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
		if Character and Humanoid_Root_Part and Equip == true then
			
			local NewCFrame
			
			Closest_Player = GetClosest()
			--print(Closest_Player)
			
			if not Closest_Player then
				Character.Humanoid:UnequipTools()
				Enemy_Remote:FireServer("Combat ended")
			end
			
			if Closest_Player then
				lookAt(Character, Closest_Player)
				--lookAt(game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character, Closest_Player)
				--Body_Gyro.CFrame = CFrame.new(Humanoid_Root_Part.Position, Closest_Player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position)
				if Switcher == false then
					Last_Player = Closest_Player
					Switcher = true
				end
				if Last_Player == Closest_Player then
					
				else
					Enemy_Gui_Clone.Enabled = false
					Enemy_Gui_Clone.Parent = Closest_Player.Character.HumanoidRootPart
					Enemy_Gui_Clone.Adornee = Closest_Player.Character.HumanoidRootPart
					Enemy_Gui_Clone.Enabled = true
					Last_Player = Closest_Player
				end
			end
			
			--print(Closest_Player)
			if Fired == false then
				print(Closest_Player)
				Enemy_Remote:FireServer(Closest_Player)
				print("Fired!")
				Fired = true
			end
			
			local Start_CFrame = CFrame.new((Humanoid_Root_Part.CFrame.p + Vector3.new(0,2,0)))*CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(X_Angle), 0)*CFrame.Angles(math.rad(Y_Angle), 0, 0)

			local Camera_CFrame = Start_CFrame + Start_CFrame:vectorToWorldSpace(Vector3.new(Camera_Position.X,Camera_Position.Y,Camera_Position.Z))
			local Camera_Focus = Start_CFrame + Start_CFrame:vectorToWorldSpace(Vector3.new(Camera_Position.X,Camera_Position.Y,-50000))

			Player_Camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(Camera_CFrame.p,Camera_Focus.p)
			
			--local lookVec = Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").CFrame.LookVector
			--local Test = CFrame.lookAt(Player_Camera.CFrame.Position, Player_Camera.CFrame.Position + lookVec)
			
			--Player_Camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(Camera_CFrame.p,Camera_Focus.p)
		end
	end)

And then just specifically the camera part, if you want it in a easier to read way:

			local Start_CFrame = CFrame.new((Humanoid_Root_Part.CFrame.p + Vector3.new(0,2,0)))*CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(X_Angle), 0)*CFrame.Angles(math.rad(Y_Angle), 0, 0)

			local Camera_CFrame = Start_CFrame + Start_CFrame:vectorToWorldSpace(Vector3.new(Camera_Position.X,Camera_Position.Y,Camera_Position.Z))
			local Camera_Focus = Start_CFrame + Start_CFrame:vectorToWorldSpace(Vector3.new(Camera_Position.X,Camera_Position.Y,-50000))

			Player_Camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(Camera_CFrame.p,Camera_Focus.p)
			
			--local lookVec = Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").CFrame.LookVector
			--local Test = CFrame.lookAt(Player_Camera.CFrame.Position, Player_Camera.CFrame.Position + lookVec)
			
			--Player_Camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(Camera_CFrame.p,Camera_Focus.p)

The commented out code makes the camera rotate the same direction as the humanoidrootpart, which may be useful but i’m not sure. Could anyone please help me out? I’d appreciate it a ton!
