local RS = game:GetService(“RunService”)
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

RS.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
cam.CFrame.Position.Z = player.Character.Head.CFrame.Position.Z
end)

I don’t understand what you’re trying to do? only make the camera move on the Z axis? also all camera scripting should be done on the Scriptable mode in the camera settings.

You mean the Y axis? I don’t see any Z axis movement, Z axis is usually the rotation of the camera, the Y axis is the up and down?

What im guessing, is that they have the camera subject to the characters head, and when the player crouches/plays and animation, the head goes with the animation, kind of giving that effect, I made a little script as an example:

local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Camera = workspace.CurrentCamera

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

local AnimId = "rbxassetid://99040100063832" --Your Animation

local Animator = Humanoid:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animator") or Instance.new("Animator", Humanoid)

local Animation = Instance.new("Animation")
Animation.AnimationId = AnimId
local AnimationTrack = Animator:LoadAnimation(Animation)

Camera.CameraSubject = Character:WaitForChild("Head")

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input) 
	if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.C then
		AnimationTrack:Play()
	end
end)

UIS.InputEnded:Connect(function(input) 
	if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.C then
		AnimationTrack:Stop()
	end
end)

i figured it out

local l__LocalPlayer__2 = game.Players.LocalPlayer;
local l__Character__3 = l__LocalPlayer__2.Character;
local l__Humanoid__1 = l__Character__3:WaitForChild(‘Humanoid’);
local l__RunService__4 = game:GetService(‘RunService’);
local l__CurrentCamera__6 = workspace.CurrentCamera;
local l__CurrentCameraPos__9 = l__CurrentCamera__6.CFrame;
local l__Head__8 = l__Character__3:WaitForChild(‘Head’);
local l__HumanoidRootPart__7 = l__Character__3:WaitForChild(‘HumanoidRootPart’);

l__RunService__4.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
local CFrameHeadPos = l__HumanoidRootPart__7.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,1,1)
local CFrameAttack = CFrameHeadPos:ToObjectSpace(l__Head__8.CFrame);
l__Humanoid__1.CameraOffset = l__Humanoid__1.CameraOffset:Lerp(CFrameAttack.Position,.25);
end);
