Camera Moves with Mouse

[jamesblox2 (curtis)]

I want to have it where I don’t have to hold down right click in order to move the camera, and I’m not talking about shift-lock. So basically normal Roblox camera just without holding down right click.

I’ve looked at many topics and haven’t seen any talking about this from what I’ve found. Please help me with this situation.

Need help with camera

What I do sometimes that works pretty well is to just set the Player.CameraMode to Enum.CameraMode.LockFirstPerson, and then set the max and min camera zoom values to eight or something (to keep it zoomed out and not going back to first person mode) . You can make it work even better by setting the character’s CameraOffset to some offset like (1,0,0) to give it that nice view that third person view games usually have. The nice thing about this method is that you don’t have to continually set it …

Have you looked at this?

I want a direct behide player position not over the shoulder cam.

[JackscarIitt (Jackscarlett)]

If you’re talking the Camera that’s relative to the mouse (Or behind), you can just change the CameraOffset of that to 0, 0, 0/0, 0, 1 (I think) if you want it within the center/behind the Character

Otherwise you’ll need to specify more information in relation to what you exactly want

[jamesblox2 (curtis)]

remember I want the character to move like a normal roblox character not with shift lock enabled movement where you look and your player instant turns that way ill look more into it but normal movement vs shiftlock movement is totally different.

Alright, another quick search shows this:

How do you look around without having to hold down right mouse button or rotating the player?

I have tried experimenting with things like lockcenter but this is not what I am looking for. It is part of what you are looking for, though. When the mouse has been locked to the center of the screen, you’d use the mouse’s delta to calculate some of the stuff to do with the camera. Here’s some sample code making something like the camera you described (it’s pretty old so it needs touching up): local SENSITIVITY = 100 local DISTANCE_Y = 3 local DISTANCE_Z = 12 local BEHAVIOR_LOCK_CENTER = …

If you are on a mac, press F4 and then press it again. This always works for me.

[jamesblox2 (curtis)]

If anyone is seeing this and needing help, you can just lock the mouse position to the middle of the screen. Roblox really doesn’t like this, and it will refresh every frame. So just make it run every frame.

local RunService = game:GetService"RunService"
RunService:BindToRenderStep("MouseLock",Enum.RenderPriority.Last.Value+1,function()
	if game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid.Health <= 0 then
	else
		UserInputService.MouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.LockCenter
	end
end)
