How do i change the shiftlockoffset via scripts?

[idkyouknowl]

hey guys i am creating a script and i want to change the shiftlockoffset so when this happends:

the offset should turn to Vector3.new(70, 40, 0)

what i have tried, i have tried changing the modulescript like trying to detect a boolvalue in the players char and then if its true the offset changes to this Vector3.new(70, 40, 0) but then i realized it doesnt check evry second if the value is true so thats where i am stuck at, i have also tried it trough scripts but it didnt seem to work so…

i need some help on this evrything is appreciated!!

How do I change shiftlocks camera offset?

Took awhile but it’s definitely possible. Only downside is that it requires you to fork the camera scripts (which thankfully is made easy, just follow the “Modifying (Forking) the Lua chat system” section, but do it with the camera scripts instead, here: In-Experience Text Chat | Roblox Creator Documentation)

Anyway, when you're done, replace CameraModule with this:

--[[ CameraModule - This ModuleScript implements a singleton class to manage the selection, activation, and deactivation of t…

Maybe this helps.

I’m not sure if it’s more recent than the post you linked but you can create a Vector3Value inside of PlayerScripts.PlayerModule.CameraModule.MouseLockController called “CameraOffset” and it should allow you to configure the offset

However it still requires some manual intervention so you will still need to fork the PlayerModule so it actually updates if the player is currently shift locked.

Here are the list of changes:

1: PlayerModule.CameraModule @ line 132, adds self.activeMouseLockController.cameraModule = self so the mouseLockController can access the CameraModule object

2: PlayerModule.CameraModule @ line 579, replaces return {} with return cameraModuleObject

3: PlayerModule.CameraModule.MouseLockController @ line 76 adds self:GetMouseLockOffset(). This will create the relevant Vector3Value

4: PlayerModule.CameraModule.MouseLockController @ line 78 adds a connection to update the mouse lock offset.

You can now modify the CameraOffset value and it should update as expected on change. It’s a much neater implementation so try it out and let me know if it suits your needs. The PlayerModule is found in StarterPlayer.StarterPlayerScripts

70, 40, 0

it worked, ty

local function changeFOV(fov, cameraOffset, shiftlockoffset)
	workspace.CurrentCamera.FieldOfView = fov

	local humanoid = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
	if humanoid then
		humanoid.CameraOffset = cameraOffset
	end
	local vectroval = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerScripts.PlayerModule.CameraModule.MouseLockController.CameraOffset
	vectroval.Value = shiftlockoffset
end

us.InputBegan:Connect(function(Input)
	if Input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.E then
		if script.Susanoo.Value == true then
			if script.SusanooStage.Value == 4 and script.Use.Value == false then
				changeFOV(120, Vector3.new(0, -40, 15), Vector3.new(70, 40, 0))
				
				
			elseif script.SusanooStage.Value == 4 and script.Use.Value == true then
				changeFOV(70, Vector3.new(0, 0, 0), Vector3.new(1.75, 0, 0))
			end
			script.Susanoore:FireServer()
		end
	end
end)
