How do I lock a camera into one place?

I want to lock a players camera in first person and make it onto a chair so they’re sitting; I also want to make it so they can’t jump. Can I have some help?

I mean like so they can’t move their camera at all

#3

Just set the camera to scriptable, and then nothing will happen

#4

What about disabling jumping? I need to do that too

#5

Set their jump power to 0, it will make it so they can’t jump.

How? Also I set the camera to that and it didn’t work

#7

you can just set the jumping power to 0. And for walkspeed, you can just set that to 0

#9

Here is how you would disable jumping.

local Humanoid = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer.Character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid");
Humanoid:SetStateEnabled(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Jumping, false)

Hopefully, this helps you :slight_smile:

What about the script for the camera to lock first person and not move at all

#11

You can lock them camera by changing cameramode
here’s an example

game.Players.LocalPlayer.CameraMode = Enum.CameraMode.LockFirstPerson

To remove their jump ability just set jumppower to 0

game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid").JumpPower = 0

Script didn’t work

  14:45:00.890 - Workspace.Script:1: attempt to index field 'LocalPlayer' (a nil value)
#13

Same error…

game.Players.LocalPlayer.CameraMode = Enum.CameraMode.LockFirstPerson
#14

This is because the script should be a localscript, and should be placed in StarterCharacterScripts.

#15

Excuse me. You put this script in workspace this should be in client
Put in startergui or how ozdx said StarterCharacterScripts

You are having a lot of trouble with this, here is an article on the camera to help:

And one for the Humanoid:

It is best to search for answers online and the dev forum first, and learn from there on. This is a very simple task and could have been done by reading these articles.

2 things:

  1. Is there any way to lock them onto a seat on joining the game (this is 1 player only)
  2. Any way to show their arms while in first person? (Body too if its even possible)
#18
  1. You should remove their jumppower. Then teleport them to seat.
  2. You can change LocalTransparencyModifier of arms
#19

  1. I have no idea how to do that

  2. Same with that

#20

You can set the jump power here to 0 to disable jumping.

As for the camera, you can easily find a tutorial on youtube where you can even change the camera place just by using a block.

local Humanoid = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
Humanoid.JumpPower = 0 -- remove their jump
Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0 -- remove their movement

game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").CFrame = CFrame.new(0,0,0) -- Your CFrame position of seat

-- Details: This should be executed after setting cam to firstperson or make loop that will change transparency
--R6
local Character = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character
local LA = Character:WaitForChild("Left Arm")
local RA = Character:WaitForChild("Right Arm")

LA.LocalTransparencyModifier = 0
RA .LocalTransparencyModifier = 0
