How can I use TweenService for a camera animation?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I have this folder with cframe data exported from moon animator
image

The problem is that idk how to use tween service in a for loop to make a smooth cutscene

Here is what I got

local fps = 1/60
local folder = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("Camera1"):WaitForChild("Frames"):GetChildren()
local frames = #folder
local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
---
local TS = game:GetService("TweenService")
local info = TweenInfo.new(1, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut, 0)
local Goal = Idk what to set as the goal
---

for i=1,frames do
	local cf = folder[i]
	camera.CFrame = cf.Value
	wait(fps)
end

please help

#2

I would assume something like this:

local fps = 1/60
local frames = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("Camera1"):WaitForChild("Frames"):GetChildren()

table.sort(frames, function(a, b)
	return tonumber(a.Name) < tonumber(b.Name
end)

local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera

---
local TS = game:GetService("TweenService")
local info = TweenInfo.new(1, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut, 0)

for i = 1, #frames dolocal cf = frames[i]
	local Goal = {CFrame = cf.Value}
	local T = TS:Create(camera, info, Goal}
	T:Play()
	T.Finished:Wait()
	wait(fps)
end
#3

sorry for the late reply
there were a few errors in the script so I changed it to this

local fps = 1/60
local frames = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("Camera1"):WaitForChild("Frames"):GetChildren()

table.sort(frames, function(a, b)
	return tonumber(a.Name) < tonumber(b.Name)
end)

local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera

---
local TS = game:GetService("TweenService")
local info = TweenInfo.new(1, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut, 0)

for i = 1, #frames do local cf = frames[i]
	local Goal = {CFrame = cf.Value}
	local T = TS:Create(camera, info, Goal)
		T:Play()
T.Completed:Wait()
wait(fps)
end

Unfortunately the script still isn’t working

#4

What seems to be the problem with it?

#5

The camera starts at the first frame but doesn’t move
it might have been because I change T.Finished to T.Completed

Did this because T.Finished wasn’t valid according to the output

#6

No, that shouldn’t be the problem.

local fps = 1/60
local frames = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("Camera1"):WaitForChild("Frames"):GetChildren()

table.sort(frames, function(a, b)
	return tonumber(a.Name) < tonumber(b.Name)
end)

local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera

---
local TS = game:GetService("TweenService")
local info = TweenInfo.new(1, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut, 0)

for i,cf in pairs(frames) do
	local Goal = {CFrame = cf.Value}
	local T = TS:Create(camera, info, Goal)
	T:Play()
	T.Completed:Wait()
	task.wait(fps)
end

Try this instead.

#7

I have no idea what is going on, this should be played with a local script right?

it seems to be going back and forth between the first frame and the player’s camera, but idk

#8

That… doesn’t look right. It seems that the camera’s CFrame resets back to the original position after you change it?

Edit: change the camera type to scriptable

local fps = 1/60
local frames = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("Camera1"):WaitForChild("Frames"):GetChildren()

table.sort(frames, function(a, b)
	return tonumber(a.Name) < tonumber(b.Name)
end)

local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera

---
local TS = game:GetService("TweenService")
local info = TweenInfo.new(1, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut, 0)

for i,cf in pairs(frames) do
	camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
	local Goal = {CFrame = cf.Value}
	local T = TS:Create(camera, info, Goal)
	T:Play()
	T.Completed:Wait()
	task.wait(fps)
end
#9

The same thing seems to be happening

#10

try a repeat.

local fps = 1/60
local frames = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("Camera1"):WaitForChild("Frames"):GetChildren()

table.sort(frames, function(a, b)
	return tonumber(a.Name) < tonumber(b.Name)
end)

local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera

---
local TS = game:GetService("TweenService")
local info = TweenInfo.new(1, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut, 0)

repeat
	camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
until camera.CameraType == Enum.CameraType.Scriptable

for i,cf in pairs(frames) do
	local Goal = {CFrame = cf.Value}
	local T = TS:Create(camera, info, Goal)
	T:Play()
	T.Completed:Wait()
	task.wait(fps)
end
#11

Back again it seems to not be working still so there might be some other problem
idk what it is so we might need more help on this
