Can you give the module script for CameraSettings?

MarshmellowMan1604 · December 31, 2022, 12:54am

I’m just useing a local script not a module script

hasoco · December 31, 2022, 12:54am

It says require, so that means there is a module script.

MarshmellowMan1604 · December 31, 2022, 12:55am

oh that would be the camera settings but sure

xSwezan · December 31, 2022, 12:55am

This actually a problem I tackled while making my Studio camera, since CFrame.Angles is local, your camera gets rotated with the current rotation. You need to count out the current rotation from the equation.

Something like this:

local rx, ry, rz = Cam.CFrame:ToEulerAnglesYXZ()
		
local Angles: CFrame = CFrame.fromEulerAnglesYXZ(rx + LookAt.X,ry + LookAt.Y, rz)

Cam.CFrame *= Angles

EDIT: Realized this might not have been what you where looking for.

I fixed everything.

Local Script:

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Char = workspace:WaitForChild(Player.Name)
local Cam = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera

local Mouse = Player:GetMouse()
local Uis = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Run = game:GetService("RunService")
local Ts = game:GetService("TweenService")

local CameraSettings = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.CameraSettings)



local CAMERASPEED = CameraSettings.CameraMoveSpeed



Cam.CameraType = CameraSettings.CameraType
Cam.CFrame = CFrame.new(0,0,0)
Cam.CFrame = Char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").CFrame



local W,A,S,D,NotMoving = false,false,false,false,true

local function KeepMoving()

	repeat
		if W then
			Cam.CFrame = Cam.CFrame + (Cam.CFrame.ZVector * -CAMERASPEED)

		end
		if 	S then 
			Cam.CFrame = Cam.CFrame + (Cam.CFrame.ZVector * CAMERASPEED)

		end
		if 	A then 
			Cam.CFrame = Cam.CFrame + (Cam.CFrame.RightVector * -CAMERASPEED) 

		end
		if 	D then 


			Cam.CFrame = Cam.CFrame + (Cam.CFrame.RightVector * CAMERASPEED) 
		end



		Char.CFrame = Cam.CFrame

		Run.RenderStepped:Wait()
	until NotMoving

end



local function MoveBegan(actionName,inputState,input)

	if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.Keyboard then

		if Uis:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.W) then
			W = true
			NotMoving= false
		end
		if Uis:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.A) then
			A = true
			NotMoving= false
		end

			S = true
			NotMoving= false
		end
		if Uis:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.D) then
			D = true
			NotMoving= false
		end
	end

	if W and not S and not D and not A then
		KeepMoving()
	elseif not W and not S and not D and A then
		KeepMoving()
	end

end

local function MoveEnded(input, gpe)

	if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.W then
		W = false
	elseif input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.S then
		S = false

		local LookAt = Vector3.new(-InputObject.Delta.Y / 300, -InputObject.Delta.X / 300, 0)

		Cam.CFrame = Cam.CFrame * CFrame.fromEulerAngles(

			LookAt.X,
			LookAt.Y,
			0	
		)

	end

end)

game:GetService("ContextActionService"):BindAction("MoveCam" , MoveBegan, false,Enum.KeyCode.W, Enum.KeyCode.A, Enum.KeyCode.S, Enum.KeyCode.D)
Uis.InputEnded:Connect(MoveEnded)

	Uis.MouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.LockCurrentPosition

MarshmellowMan1604 · December 31, 2022, 1:03am

well, I did not work, I fixed it because there is no humanoid or humanoidrootpart so I just change that to the character cframe, but there was nothing really wrong with all of that. It is just the camera

hasoco · December 31, 2022, 1:03am

Do you see a lot of errors in the script? Try to fix those errors.

MarshmellowMan1604 · December 31, 2022, 1:04am

I could not tell if it was fixed because when I moved the camera it was way to fast to see anything, and I tried diving the look at by more then 300 but that did not change anything

hasoco · December 31, 2022, 1:04am

I’ll send a video of it on my screen.

MarshmellowMan1604 · December 31, 2022, 1:04am

There is not errors, it’s fixed its just the camera is not like roblox studio’s camera

hasoco · December 31, 2022, 1:06am

Is this how you intended it to work?

MarshmellowMan1604 · December 31, 2022, 1:08am

thats not how I wanted it to work. you can see how when you move the camera it gets tilted I just want it to stay flat if you know what I mean.

hasoco · December 31, 2022, 1:08am

I know what you mean, but right now, I have no knowledge on how to fix this.

xSwezan · December 31, 2022, 11:50am

You replaced my code with this code right?

Because if you have both of 'em they will stack and make it fast

xSwezan · December 31, 2022, 11:51am

That gets fixed with the piece of code I sent earlier.

MarshmellowMan1604 · December 31, 2022, 4:40pm

No worrys I did some diggy yesterday to try and find a fix and I did
