How to make camera tilt in direction player is moving?

The best way to explain this would be something similar to that of quake
When strafing, the players camera should tilt to the left or right, giving this effect.
I don’t really know how I could go about doing this though…

You could use the dot product of (I think) the camera’s look vector RightVector and the Humanoid’s MoveDirection to get the direction (which can only be left or right) that the humanoid is moving towards relative to the camera, then use that to tilt the camera in it’s Z (roll) axis.

It’s kind of hard to explain here but here’s a somewhat related post on how you’d do that. I’ll see if I can pop a working demo in a bit

This should be what you’re looking for?

local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local Player = Players.LocalPlayer
local Camera = workspace.CurrentCamera

local function GetRollAngle()
	local Character = Player.Character
	
	if not Character then
		return
	end
	
	return Camera.CFrame.RightVector:Dot(Character.Humanoid.MoveDirection)
end

RunService:BindToRenderStep("RotateCameraInDirectionPlayerIsGoing", Enum.RenderPriority.Camera.Value + 1, function()
	local Roll = -GetRollAngle() -- Divide or multiply to make the angle bigger or smaller if you want.
								 -- If you want more specific angling, I think you could get the arccos of
								 -- this and then tweak it a little bit.
	Camera.CFrame = Camera.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0, 0, Roll)
end)
