Can you please be more specific? I don’t understand what it is you want to accomplish. If you want to just move around the camera, like a cutscene, you can do so from a localscript by changing the CurrentCamera’s CFrame.

I want the players camera or mouse to be locked onto another player where they cant move it but they will always be looking at that player.

Check this out: Camera | Roblox Creator Documentation

#6

ive seen this property is this how it works

#7

Yes. First do this:

local CurrentCam = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
CurrentCam.CameraType = "Scriptable"
CurrentCam.Focus = (game.Workspace.FocusedObjectHere)

			humanoid.AutoRotate = false
			humanoid.WalkSpeed = 7
			humanoid.JumpPower = 0
			cam.FieldOfView = 55
			cam.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
			cam.Focus = game.Workspace.TestDummy.Torso.CFrame

Have you defined “cam”? I don’t see it in your code.

wait(1)
local cam = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
local FocusPart = (game.Workspace.PartYouWantToFocusOn)
cam.CameraType = "Scriptable"
cam.Focus = FucusPart.CFrame
#13

Yes i tried it I dont think this is what focus does

cam is game.Workspace.Currentcamera
i set its type to enum.CameraType.Scriptable
then i set its focus to a Cframe of a dummys torso and it does not work

#14

Try setting the CFrame of Camera.

#15

Ok i watched some of the video and it said It needed to be set to fixed
