How to make the camera follow ONLY the orientation of the players head instead of the position?

[laheitorzito303030]

Gosh, all in one line, could you please format it for me?

[laheitorzito303030]

Also it didn’t work and what is happening is… uhhh… i can’t even explain My character is just tweaking out like if he were crazy, like super crazy

I may be misunderstanding what you want. Can you try to explain further? Do you want the camera to stay in one place, or do you want it to follow the player? Are you trying to do something like HELLMET?

[laheitorzito303030]

No, no, do you know that animations change the head orientation most of the time? Well, i want actually change the orientation to the player’s head orientation, but i never played hellmet or ever have watched any videos about it (just a little bit) but i don’t want it to stay on one place, i want it to rotate’s with the player’s head.

Try

local Head = character.Head

game:GetService("RunSerive").RenderStepped:Connect(function()
local X,Y,Z = Head.CFrame:ToOrientation()

local CameraPosition = Vector3.new(0,0,0) -- change to whatever you want the camera position to be
Camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(CameraPosition) * CFrame.Angles(X,Y,Z)
end)

That’s essentially what I suggested and he said it was wrong, so I don’t know

[laheitorzito303030]

??? i didn’t said that bro i just said the script didn’t worked, my character was just tweaking

Are you trying to make an animated camera?

[laheitorzito303030]

No, Gosh i think it’s way too hard to explain what i want lol

[GalladeR475 (glaphyre)]

Could you show us a few examples of what you want to achieve?

[Korpsii (FN Herstal)]

I meant this,

m4a1 viewmodel reload animation

The camera’s orientation goes with the animation

[laheitorzito303030]

YES!! Exactly that! i want exactly that, but i may need some fake cameras for this or smth?

[GalladeR475 (glaphyre)]

Change the CameraPosition to be Head.Position in the snippet provided by @Korpsii.

[laheitorzito303030]

Wow, now i can’t rotate my camera, only jumping

[Korpsii (FN Herstal)]

No, it’s not necessary to have a fake head. You can use it with practically anything that’s a basepart.

Sadly, i only know how to make the camera only follow the Roll axis on the FakeCamera/Head (whichever you want the camera to follow.)

local Character = script.Parent
local Head = Character.Head

game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:Connect(function()
local _,_,Roll = Head:ToOrientation()

workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame *= CFrame.Angles(0,0,Roll)
end)

This post SHOULD help you, though.

Animating the camera?

Hello, everyone This is something i am really in need of help recently, And as it’s something complicated to explain and most likely really complicated to do, I have not reached the results i’m looking for yet I feel that this topic needs more attention from the community since this is something that makes FPS games look much better, What i want to achieve I will try to make this as easy as i can So, most recent FPS games have what i like to call “Camera Animations” Here’s an example of wh…

[laheitorzito303030]

For some reason, it gave me this error: ToOrientation is not a valid member of Part "Workspace.Heitorsonic123508.Head"

[Korpsii (FN Herstal)]

Forgot to put CFrame there,

local Character = script.Parent
local Head = Character.Head

game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:Connect(function()
local _,_,Roll = Head.CFrame:ToOrientation()

workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame *= CFrame.Angles(0,0,Roll)
end)

[laheitorzito303030]

IT WORKED!!! Thank you so much!

No problem, glad to help ya out.
