Cameratype sometimes wont change to custom

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    I want it so once the jumpscare is completed, i want the camera type to go back to custom
  2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
    it seems to be that there is a 50% chance of it actually returning to custom, the other 50% it just says on custom and gets stuck on the jumpscare
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character
local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local playerDeath = game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes:WaitForChild("playerDeath")
local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera

local function deathEffect()
	
	camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
local headview = camera.CFrame
	camera.CFrame = game.Workspace.Jumpscare.Body.Body.deathCam.CFrame
	wait(3)
	camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
	
	
	end	
	

humanoid.Died:Connect(deathEffect)
humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
	wait(0.8)
	game.Workspace.Jumpscare.Body.Body["Sword Hit stab 5 beyond x OTH"]:Play()
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local deathFade = TweenService:Create(script.Parent, TweenInfo.new(1), {BackgroundTransparency = 0})
	deathFade:Play()
	end)

Please do not ask people to write entire scripts or design entire systems for you. If you can’t answer the three questions above, you should probably pick a different category.

After turning CameraType back to Custom set the camera’s CFrame back to the character’s HumanoidRootPart CFrame

hey uhm… it happened again but at this point i have no clue

#5

Try to set the camera’s CameraSubject and Focus to the player as well?

camera.CameraSubject = character.Humanoid
camera.Focus = character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame

It should work unless the script broke somewhere

Did you change anything in your code? Or is it still the same? Also what does headview do in the death function

#8

didnt change anything, headview was just shortening camera.CFrame but i didnt end up using it

#9

Try creating a part that faces the jumpscare guy, when deathEffect function is triggered change the camera subject to that part. After it’s complete change the camera subject to player.Character. I use parts instead of setting CFrame , it feels less confusing.

Also mind sending any output messages related to the problem

#10

havent tried what you said yet but there is no output issues

changing the camera subject to the part makes it do nothing ( no outputs either)
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character
local humanoid = character:WaitForChild(“Humanoid”)
local playerDeath = game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes:WaitForChild(“playerDeath”)
local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera

local function deathEffect()

camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable

camera.CameraSubject = game.Workspace.Jumpscare.Body.Body.deathCam

wait(3)
camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
camera.CameraSubject = player.Character.HumanoidRootPart

camera.CameraSubject = character.Humanoid
camera.Focus = character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame
end

humanoid.Died:Connect(deathEffect)
humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
wait(0.8)
game.Workspace.Jumpscare.Body.Body[“Sword Hit stab 5 beyond x OTH”]:Play()
local TweenService = game:GetService(“TweenService”)
local deathFade = TweenService:Create(script.Parent, TweenInfo.new(1), {BackgroundTransparency = 0})
deathFade:Play()
end)

#12

add a print below the deathEffect to make sure if it’s executed.
also set the cameraSubject to the character(the model one) not the humanoid root part.
And “camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom” , “fixed” is the default property.

one question: why do you use the camera.focus ? I don’t think it’s necessary

#13

i used camera focus bc the other dude recommended it

#14

well , I wouldn’t use it since you’re already changing the camera subject. It doesn’t do much

making the camera type fixed just made the camera stay mid air and the camera wont change to the part

add prints everywhere to debug , you need to do debugging to solve problems.
