I want to turn the player’s camera sideways for an in-game effect

I just want to understand which value is responsible for this
In detail what I want to do:

You can rotate the camera on the Z Axis by setting the camera’s CameraType to Scriptable. You can do this by doing workspace.CurrentCamera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
After you’ve set the CameraType to Scriptable, follow this:

workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame *= CFrame.Angles(0, 0, math.rad([ROTATION]) )

replace [ROTATION] with how much you want to rotate the camera.

It turns out like this right?

PlrCamera this is a camera

Yes, the PlrCamera should be workspace.CurrentCamera.
But note: you should only use this for cutscenes, or other similar things as your camera won’t move, so you’ll have to make a completely custom camera.

For some reason it doesn’t work

I can give you a full script for you

#7

Yes, just give me the whole script.

#8 
local IS = game:GetService("UserInputService")

local Plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer

local PlrCamera = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera

PlrCamera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable

IS.InputBegan:Connect(function(Key)
	
	if Key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.A then
		
		print("PRESSED A")
		
		PlrCamera.CFrame *= CFrame.Angles(0, 0, math.rad(10))
		
	end
	
	if Key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.D then

		print("PRESSED D")
		
		PlrCamera.CFrame *= CFrame.Angles(0, 0, math.rad(-10))
		
	end
	
end)

As i said, the camera might freeze in place, so you’d have to write a completely new camera script.
Could you give me some footage of what happens? Are there any errors in the console?

You could try this solution by @reimakesgames: Roll camera without scriptable Camera Mode - #3 by reimakesgames

or maybe it’s because the player’s camera didn’t have time to load?

#15

it worked! Only the camera is now just hovering in the air

#16

That’s what i said - You’ll need to know how to make a custom camera script for your game.

Unfortunately I don’t know how to do this :melting_face:

In order to tilt the camera, you need to give the camera a scriptable type and write a line of code game.Workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame *= CFrame.Angles(0, 0, math.rad(10)) in this case, the player’s camera will hang in one place and it will not be possible to rotate it
