How would i go on about making something like this?

Making An orbitial/moveable camera like this,

#2

I don’t have much experience with scripting cameras in studio but this should be fairly simple to do.

The first thing to do is to create a local script that changes the camera to Scriptable and then changes the CFrame of the camera while also making sure the Focus of the camera is the Humanoid.
The code should probably look something like this:

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Humanoid = Player.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
local Camera = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
local uis = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local xaxis = 0
local yaxis = 0 --change these numbers to your liking as I'm assuming the z axis is constant

Camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
Camera.Focus = Humanoid
Camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(x,50,y)

while task.wait() do      --Now to move the camera depending on the key pressed
if uis:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.W) then
xaxis += 1
Camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(x,50,y)
end
if uis:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.S) then
xaxis -= 1
Camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(x,50,y)
end
if uis:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.A) then
yaxis -= 1
Camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(x,50,y)
end
if uis:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.D) then
yaxis += 1
Camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(x,50,y)
end
end

I’m not too sure if this code will work but I think it’s a decent starting point to fix, optimize and implement new things to.

#3

ill test it and try to fix any errors

#4

Also make sure to assign different keybinds or change the walkspeed of the player to 0 if you don’t want him to move

#5

alright i will make sure of that

#6

it works, but how would i make it face towards the ground like it was in the video?

#7

nevermind i figured it out, i changed it up a bit

#8

here’s the changed script:

repeat wait() until game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character ~= nil

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Humanoid = Player.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
local Camera = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
local uis = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local xaxis = 0
local yaxis = 0 --change these numbers to your liking as I'm assuming the z axis is constant

Camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable

Camera.Focus = Player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame
Camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(Player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position + Player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.UpVector*80) * CFrame.Angles(math.rad(-90),0,0)
Camera.CameraSubject = workspace.Baseplate

while task.wait() do      --Now to move the camera depending on the key pressed
	if uis:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.W) then
		yaxis += 1
		game.TweenService:Create(Camera, TweenInfo.new(.1, Enum.EasingStyle.Sine), {CFrame = CFrame.new(xaxis, 80, yaxis) * CFrame.Angles(math.rad(-90),0,0)}):Play()
	end
	if uis:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.S) then
		yaxis -= 1
		game.TweenService:Create(Camera, TweenInfo.new(.1, Enum.EasingStyle.Sine), {CFrame = CFrame.new(xaxis, 80, yaxis) * CFrame.Angles(math.rad(-90),0,0)}):Play()
	end
	if uis:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.A) then
		xaxis -= 1
		game.TweenService:Create(Camera, TweenInfo.new(.1, Enum.EasingStyle.Sine), {CFrame = CFrame.new(xaxis, 80, yaxis) * CFrame.Angles(math.rad(-90),0,0)}):Play()
	end
	if uis:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.D) then
		xaxis += 1
		game.TweenService:Create(Camera, TweenInfo.new(.1, Enum.EasingStyle.Sine), {CFrame = CFrame.new(xaxis, 80, yaxis) * CFrame.Angles(math.rad(-90),0,0)}):Play()
	end
end
