Controller Camera Manipulation?

[l72O (dylanonaroll)]

Hello. sorry if this topic setup isn’t the best I’m fairly new to Forums

Though despite that my question begs to differ.
**Is there a way to manage the roblox built-in controller camera? **

I’m working with a “RPG” so far as of what I call it

Here is the computer’s camera compared to the controller camera

If anyone has found a solution, please note this and thank you

One thing I could think of if it hasn’t been applied already is trying to find a way to affix the camera using a Part as the camera and then using a script to detect the right mouse button or controller stick input, you can change the camera as normal. I haven’t messed with controller scripting yet, but from my research you can just use UserInputService to detect movement with the right stick. Here’s the most basic way you could make it:

-- need this for if player wants to move cam
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService") 

-- the camera
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local playerCam = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
local fixedCam = plr.fixedCam --[[here I'm assuming I made a part parented to
the HumanoidRootPart with a weld constraint so the camera moves with the player]]
playerCam.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
playerCam.CFrame = fixedCam.CFrame

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(inputGiven)
    local keycode = inputGiven.Enum.KeyCode -- made for brevity
    if keycode == "MouseRightButton" or keycode == "Thumbstick2" then
        -- move the fixed camera position to that direction
        -- you'd do this by trying to track the mouse direction/stick direction
    end
end)

That may be slightly wrong and if you need more guidance let me know. There could possibly be an easier way which I haven’t found or something which I’ve overlooked but hopefully this gets you started!

I’d refer to this as well for limiting camera rotation to get some inspiration as bonus suggestion!!

thank you for trying to find a solution sorry for the late reply

i think for now i’ll just find a way to manage with roblox’s built in camera ( for the controller part )
