Hello, i was making a script that makes the screen blurry when something touches the “water” part, so when the character’s head touches the “water” the screen gets blurry, but it isn’t realistic because if the camera is out of water and the character inside of it the screen stills blurry.
I tried to use game.Workspace.CurrentCamera but it doesn’t have the “touched” event
My question is: how can i detect when camera is inside this part?
(if you don’t understand something on this post or find something wrong like the category let me know because i don’t speak a good english and i’m new in the forum)
Region3 based functions are being deprecated. Use the new spatial query API.
This script below will detect if the camera is inside a part.
local param = OverlapParams.new()
param.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Whitelist
param.FilterDescendantsInstances = {workspace} --customize this, for example: {workspace.Ocean}
local cam = workspace.CurrentCamera
local hitbox = Vector3.new()
game:GetService('RunService').RenderStepped:Connect(function()
local parts = workspace:GetPartBoundsInBox(cam.CFrame, hitbox, param)
if #parts > 0 then
print('camera inside part')
end
end)
It worked pretty well but every part the camera touches, screen gets blurry, how can i get properties of the part that the camera touched? Edit: Sorry for the late answers, you guys answered in the same hour but i was going to sleep
I know about this table but i can’t get a specific member of this table, i searched in roblox api and i found table.find() but it didn’t worked with this table
That’s my script, when the camera is inside a part screen gets blurry but that shouldn’t work with every part in the game
local Parametro = OverlapParams.new()
Parametro.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Whitelist
Parametro.FilterDescendantsInstances = {game.Workspace}
local Camera = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
local DB = false
local DB2 = false
local DB3 = true
local function OnRenderStepped()
local parts = workspace:GetPartBoundsInBox(Camera.CFrame, Vector3.new(), Parametro)
if #parts > 0 then
print(parts)
end
if #parts > 0 and DB3 == true then
DB3 = false
if game.Lighting:FindFirstChild("Blur") then
game.Lighting.Blur.Size = 20
DB2 = true
DB = true
else
local BlurLocal = Instance.new("BlurEffect")
BlurLocal.Parent = game.Lighting
BlurLocal.Name = "Blur"
BlurLocal.Size = 20
DB2 = true
DB = true
end
script:WaitForChild("WaterSplash"):Play()
wait(0.1)
script:WaitForChild("UnderWater"):Play()
elseif #parts == 0 and DB3 == false then
DB3 = true
DB2 = false
wait(0.15)
script:WaitForChild("UnderWater"):Stop()
script:WaitForChild("OutWaterSplash"):Play()
if DB == true then
DB = false
while wait(0.01) do
game.Lighting.Blur.Size = game.Lighting.Blur.Size - 0.3
if game.Lighting.Blur.Size == 0 or game.Lighting.Blur.Size < 0 or DB2 == true then
break
end
end
end
end
end
game:GetService("RunService").Stepped:Connect(OnRenderStepped)```
I actually used a function to return whether or not the Camera was above the waterline for something like this I had in one of my projects.
local function GetSeaHeight(Position: Vector3): number
-- Funcion sinplified for sharing
-- Usually I would have put some calculations here for perlin noise waves or gerster waves
return 0 -- Water would be a flat plane
end)
RunService.RenderStepped:Connect(function(deltaTime)
local SeaHeight = GetSeaHeight(Camera.CFrame.Position)
if Camera.CFrame.Y > SeaHeight then
-- Camera Overwater
else
-- Camera Underwater
end
end)
What is more you can actually create “depth” effect by checking the distance the camera is underwater (If your game will be based underwater) and increasing the blur the more the camera goes underwater.
You could probably optimize this by waiting for the Camera.CFrame to change too.
Your idea is good but i was planning to do something more simple, like the second answer of this topic, got any idea of how to get an instance from a table? I know this is really basic but i don’t make the minor idea of how to do this
