CameraPlus API - Open Testing

Hey all, I would love if some of you tested my CameraPlus API and give me some feedback! I will be releasing it to everyone on ROBLOX in a day or so, but want to make sure it works well with everyone.

Some key notes:

  • Use it in a LocalScript
  • Try to break it

Thanks guys,

This API is really, really good. Do you have any intentions of making a plugin for creating cut scenes with this API? If not, I think I might take a swing at it.

I don’t know. You and anyone else are totally free to take this and make it into a plugin though!

I’ll check it out later today! Thanks man!

Oh wow, this is amazing and it made a cool little cutscene for my park and it’s so easy to understand. I’ve never been good with camera manipulations this helped me a great amount.

I like this API, but also the context in which it is released. This should be some sort of standard. It would be cool if roblox would provide some way to share those things ourselves (yes, I know, free models, but some kind of “library” service which holds libraries…).

A lot of suggestions in the feature requests forum are about things we can all make ourselves. As I plead there, we should not let the roblox engineers on that. They should only work on it when it gives us more freedom or more features, or if it will significantly increase how “beginners” will code. If it’s a huge help for them, I’d say they should add it to the “official API”. However, the support for the “community-made-APIs” (or libraries, or frameworks, or …) should be added too by roblox - for example, a “libraries” section on the site. This API, for instance, is a huge help for everyone.

So, keep up the good work, and release more of such things! :slight_smile:

Thank you! And yeah it would be cool if ROBLOX had a more set-in-place way of publishing libraries.
