How to make a camera shake/bob system?

[BreezeOnTheDoor (Unceen)]

I have no clue how to make something like this that works in 3rd person. Does anyone here know how?

I can only find resources for first person and the ones for third person don’t really work that great

You didn’t look hard enough

EZ Camera Shake ported to Roblox

The Unity Asset Store has a free asset called EZ Camera Shake, which I have ported to Roblox. Module: GitHub repository: The original author of the Unity3D asset, Road Turtle Games, gave me written permission via email to make and open-source this port to Roblox. I contacted the developer since there was no licensing information available for the Unity3D asset. Example of the module using the Explosion preset: Example code: local camShake = CameraShaker.new(Enum.RenderPriority.Ca…

That’s not what I’m looking for. I have used that module several times. I want bobbing / shaking when walking and that module just wouldn’t work

try searching around the toolbox, theres a ton of scripts for this and they work by modifying the CurrentCamera

This script posted has a bunch of settings that can be tweaked. You’ll have to mess around with it to find your sweet spot.

If you want to learn the basics of a camera shake / bobble system. I would highly recommend taking a look at Okeanskiys video on a basic camera shake system.

ROBLOX Camera Shake w/ CameraOffset - 2019 Scripting Tutorial (Easy Bobble Movement)

[awry_y (Harper_Clark)]

I have a formula for such bob. Here it is:

local bobbleX = math.cos(tick() * desiredVelocity / 2) * math.sqrt(velocity / 16) * (InAir() and 0.5 or 2)
local bobbleY = math.abs(math.sin(tick() * desiredVelocity / 2)) * math.sqrt(velocity / 16) * (InAir() and 0.5 or 2)

local noiseX = math.noise(tick()/10,os.clock()/10)*5
local noiseY = math.noise(os.clock()/10,tick()/10)*5 + math.sin(tick()*2)/2

It has some random movement as well indicated by the noise and it does increase/decrease depending on the player’s speed.

Here is what the 2 variables, desiredVelocity and velocity mean:

• desiredVelocity: It’s the players velocity but rounded, so you need to use math.round.
• velocity: The player’s current velocity.

You could remove the noise as well if you want.

I would say to put them in this way:

local verticalRotation = bobbleY + noiseY
local horizontalRotation = bobbleX + noiseX
local tiltedRotation = bobbleX

You could also make it shake a bit if you increase the noiseX and noiseY.

This solution also worked very well for me, thanks. I made the other one the solution primarily because it was posted first, I’ll conduct further testing to see which one I like better. Thanks.
