I’m making a transformation script, and it works fine except for the camera part.

			camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
				camera.CFrame = cam.CFrame
		until camera.CameraType == Enum.CameraType.Custom
		end
		print("keycode")
		wait(3)
		cam:FindFirstChild("WeldConstraint").Part1 = nil
		cam.Anchored = true
		cam.CFrame = head.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,120,0) * CFrame.Angles(-95, 0, 0)
		wait(4)
		print("CUSTOM")
		camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
		print("HOORAY")
		cam:Destroy()
		print("loaded")
end)
end)

It says that Camera is being set back to custom, but when I play my camera just stays where i set it to and my character moves around without the camera.

#3 
local player =  game.Players.LocalPlayer
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
character.Archivable = true
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local event = game.ReplicatedStorage:FindFirstChild("TitanShifting"):FindFirstChild("Titanshift")
local camera = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
local head = character:WaitForChild("Head")

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
	if input and input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.P then
		event:FireServer(player)
		print("camera")
		character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid").WalkSpeed = 0
		character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid").JumpPower = 0
		character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid").AutoRotate = false
		repeat wait()
			camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
				camera.CFrame = head.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0,-3) * CFrame.Angles(0, 185.35, 0)
		until camera.CameraType == Enum.CameraType.Custom
		end
		print("keycode")
		wait(2)
		print("CUSTOM")
		camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
		print("HOORAY")
		print("loaded")
end)
end)```

im prety new to script but i tryna help ppl if i can and if the problem is the repeat then do

until camera.CameraType == Enum.CameraType.Scriptable

because i can’t really see how can the camera become custom if you want it to be scriptable

#5

make a pcall maybe it gonna work

#6

It’s because your condition to end the repeat loop is the camera being set to normal when that never occurs.

Instead of using repeat if you want it to be a temporary loop you should use this instead

for i = 1,100 do -- change 100 to how long
game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:Wait()

--And the rest of your camera code within the repeat
end
#7

pack the repeat loop into a thread so it doesn’t yield the code you need

task.spawn(function() -- or task.defer(), up to you
		repeat wait()
			camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
				camera.CFrame = head.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0,-3) * CFrame.Angles(0, 185.35, 0)
		until camera.CameraType == Enum.CameraType.Custom
end)
