Camera manipulation not working

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

So I’m trying to use camera manipulation for my intro to my game. But, for some reason it seems not to be working.
Script:

local Camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
local target = game.Workspace.TargetPart

Camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
Camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(target.Position)

Thank you for your time.

Screenshot the Explorer and Script.
Is this LocalScript or Script? If it’s Local then you can’t use “game.Workspace or any like that”, only script.Parent…

It isn’t that obvious, but I said it was a intro to my game so it’s probably a local script and it is.

#4

Screenshot the Explorer. And then I would know.

#5

What does this mean?
ActivateCameraController did not select a module.

#6

It’s a common bug now, no one knows as I know.
Just screenshot entire Studio.

Try using a function

local Camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
local target = game.Workspace.TargetPart

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function()
Camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
Camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(target.Position)
end)
#9

No, Workspace, game.Workspace.TargetPart DOESNT WORK on a Localscript.

#10

Only script.Parent does work as I know.

#11

For some reason, it doesn’t even change anything as I can see.

#12

local Camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
local target = workspace.TargetPart

Camera.CameraType = “Scriptable”
Camera.CFrame = that code. And make it (target.CFrame and not Position)

^^^ try this

#13

You can’t manipulate camera on the server.

#14

Come on already, write that message. I’m curious what you will write.

#15

I might be wrong but, it might work if you wait for the character to load.

local Players = game:GetService('Players')

local Camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
local target = workspace.TargetPart

local player = Players.LocalPlayer

if not player.Character then
    player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
end

Camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
Camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(target.Position)

Sorry if I’m being a bit rude of here but, this wouldn’t really do anything since doing CFrame.new(target.Position) just makes the camera not rotate, and the problem isn’t probably because of the enum.

#16

local Camera = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

repeat wait() until Player.Character

Camera.CameraType = “Scriptable”
Camera.CFrame = game.Workspace.TargetPart.CFrame

Maybe this one will work.

#17

Sorry for not writing lol. I was doing something else.

#18

I found the answer thanks for the help everyone!
