How can I acheive the 360 panoramic camera

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I wanna try to make a camera that spins like a panorama. I’m not sure how to do this, I know how to tween the camera to make it go up, but I have not the slightest idea how to make the camera spin like a panorama. A perferct example of this is Brookhaven, when you first join, the camera circles around you and then stops when you hit the button.

This is quite simple, all you have to do is get the current camera’s cframe, add on some angles and repeat that until the player clicks the button

example would be like

local clickedButton = false

game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:Connect(function()
    if clickedButton == false then
        camera.CFrame = camera.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(math.rad(1),0,0)
    end
end)

This article has a script to make your camera rotate around a part.

How can I modify it to circle around the avatar?

I have a script that rotates around a certain part well, but how do I make it set back?

Code, everything works except the MouseButton1Click.

local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")

local target = workspace:FindFirstChild("Part")  -- The object to rotate around
local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
local rotationAngle = Instance.new("NumberValue")
local tweenComplete = false

local cameraOffset = Vector3.new(0, 10, 12)
local rotationTime = 15  -- Time in seconds
local rotationDegrees = 360
local rotationRepeatCount = -1  -- Use -1 for infinite repeats
local lookAtTarget = true  -- Whether the camera tilts to point directly at the target

local function updateCamera()
	if not target then return end
	camera.Focus = target.CFrame
	local rotatedCFrame = CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(rotationAngle.Value), 0)
	rotatedCFrame = CFrame.new(target.Position) * rotatedCFrame
	camera.CFrame = rotatedCFrame:ToWorldSpace(CFrame.new(cameraOffset))
	if lookAtTarget == true then
		camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(camera.CFrame.Position, target.Position)
	end
end

-- Set up and start rotation tween
local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(rotationTime, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut, rotationRepeatCount)
local tween = TweenService:Create(rotationAngle, tweenInfo, {Value=rotationDegrees})
tween.Completed:Connect(function()
	tweenComplete = true
end)
tween:Play()

-- Update camera position while tween runs
RunService.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
	if tweenComplete == false then
		updateCamera()
	end
end)

game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.TextButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
	script:Destroy()
end)

You can change the target part to the characters’ humanoidRootPart.

Edit: HumanoidRootPart, not Humanoid :sweat_smile:

How do I get humanoid root part, I replace the target variable to equal game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart but now the whole script is broken.

I figured it out!

Your helped because while I figured out how to get the HumanoidRootPart, you told me that I needed to get it!
