How to use :Lerp when moving the players camera?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I have a GUI on the player’s screen where when they press the button, it will move their camera closer to this “portal” type thing to make a smoother loading into the next scene / instance of a game…

Yet I cannot figure out how to use :Lerp to move it.

Here is script and what actually happens, any help?

local PlayScreen = script.Parent.PlayScreen
local ChapterOneButton = PlayScreen.ChapterOne

local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local Camera = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Player = Players.LocalPlayer
local CameraPieceFinal = game.Workspace.CameraPieceFinal

--// joining

repeat wait() until Player.Character
print("yass repeating")

Camera.CameraType = "Scriptable"
Camera.CFrame = game.Workspace.CameraPiece.CFrame
game.StarterGui:SetCoreGuiEnabled(Enum.CoreGuiType.PlayerList, false)
game.StarterGui:SetCoreGuiEnabled(Enum.CoreGuiType.Health, false)
game.StarterGui:SetCoreGuiEnabled(Enum.CoreGuiType.Backpack, false)


ChapterOneButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	local time = 1
	local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(time, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, Enum.EasingDirection.Out, 0, false, 0)
	TweenService:Create(Camerapiece, tweenInfo, {CFrame = CFrame.new(-515.835, 21.09, 127.772)}):Play() 
	wait(1)
	
	CameraPieceFinal.CFrame = Camerapiece.CFrame:Lerp(CameraPieceFinal.CFrame)
end)

You need to lerp the actual camera rather than the camera piece, or constantly update the camera to match the cframe of the camerapiece in a heartbeat or renderstepped event
Camera.CFrame = Camera.CFrame:Lerp(CameraPieceFinal.CFrame)

Still didnt work…

Changed it to this?

CameraPieceFinal.CFrame = Camera.CFrame:Lerp(CameraPieceFinal.CFrame, 0.5)
#4

Use workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame

#5

Still didnt make any change, still does the same thing as shown in the video.

No errors either.

tween the camera instead of your part

TweenService:Create(workspace.camera, tweenInfo, {CFrame = CFrame.new(-515.835, 21.09, 127.772)}):Play()

You’re setting the CurrentCamera’s CFrame, correct?

Error fixed!!!

Changed it to this

TweenService:Create(workspace.CurrentCamera, tweenInfo, {CFrame = CFrame.new(-515.835, 21.09, 127.772)}):Play()

Got it working!!
