Need help with third person body turning and first person viewmodel

[Henry_HZO (chickenhenwy)]

Hello, I want to make a third-person body turning like Minecraft, where the head follows the camera orientation but the body does not follow until the head rotates too far.

Adding on to this, I want to make a first-person ViewModel with similar mechanics. But this time, the arms will move with the player’s mouse and the camera will follow along as the arms cover a portion of the screen.

^ Here is what I want the third person body turning to look like.

^ Here is what I want the first person ViewModel to act like. You can see that the arms move around freely but the camera will not immediately follow if there’s not enough arm movement.

I have searched for solutions but found none that were what I want to achieve.
I need some guidance on where to start and how to achieve this.

Thank you for taking the time to read this

found something similar to what I was looking for

How do I go about making the player torso rotate?

I made this script to do that a while ago. Put it in StarterCharacterScripts to test it. Here is a video of what it does. -- StarterCharacter script local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer local cam = workspace.CurrentCamera local char = player.Character local human = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid") local rootPart = char.PrimaryPart local upperTorso = char:WaitForChild("UpperTorso") local waistJoint = upperTorso:WaitForChild("Waist") -- Services local uis = game:GetService("UserInput…

Hi, there is a camera bobbing script i made that can help you (at least a bit) with your first person, or in general.

--CODED BY V1SIONUSE--
--STARTERCHARACTERSCRIPTS--

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

local Player = Players.LocalPlayer
local Mouse = Player:GetMouse()
local Camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
local Humanoid = Player.Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

local bobbing = nil

local MAX_ZOOM_DISTANCE
if Player.Name == "V1SIONUSE" then
	MAX_ZOOM_DISTANCE = 800
else
	MAX_ZOOM_DISTANCE = 250
end

local MIN_ZOOM_DISTANCE = 0.5

-- Rest of your script here, using MAX_ZOOM_DISTANCE and MIN_ZOOM_DISTANCE as needed


-- Variables
local func1, func2, func3, func4 = 0, 0, 0, 0
local val, val2 = 0, 0
local int, int2 = 5, 5
local vect3 = Vector3.new()

-- Enable mouse icon
UserInputService.MouseIconEnabled = true

-- Function to perform linear interpolation
local function lerp(a, b, c)
	return a + (b - a) * c
end

-- Function to update camera shake and movement
local function updateCamera(deltaTime)
	deltaTime = deltaTime * 30

	if Humanoid.Health <= 0 then
		bobbing:Disconnect()
		return
	end

	local rootMagnitude = Humanoid.RootPart and Vector3.new(Humanoid.RootPart.Velocity.X, 0, Humanoid.RootPart.Velocity.Z).Magnitude or 0
	local calcRootMagnitude = math.min(rootMagnitude, 25)

	if deltaTime > 1.5 then
		func1, func2 = 0, 0
	else
		func1 = lerp(func1, math.cos(tick() * 0.5 * math.random(5, 7.5)) * (math.random(2.5, 10) / 100) * deltaTime, 0.05 * deltaTime)
		func2 = lerp(func2, math.cos(tick() * 0.5 * math.random(2.5, 5)) * (math.random(1, 5) / 100) * deltaTime, 0.05 * deltaTime)
	end

	Camera.CFrame = Camera.CFrame *
		(CFrame.fromEulerAnglesXYZ(0, 0, math.rad(func3)) *
			CFrame.fromEulerAnglesXYZ(math.rad(func4 * deltaTime), math.rad(val * deltaTime), val2) *
			CFrame.Angles(0, 0, math.rad(func4 * deltaTime * (calcRootMagnitude / 5))) *
			CFrame.fromEulerAnglesXYZ(math.rad(func1), math.rad(func2), math.rad(func2 * 10)))

	val2 = math.clamp(
		lerp(val2, -Camera.CFrame:VectorToObjectSpace((Humanoid.RootPart and Humanoid.RootPart.Velocity or Vector3.new()) / math.max(Humanoid.WalkSpeed, 0.01)).X * 0.04, 0.1 * deltaTime),
		-0.12,
		0.1
	)

	func3 = lerp(func3, math.clamp(UserInputService:GetMouseDelta().X, -2.5, 2.5), 0.25 * deltaTime)
	func4 = lerp(func4, math.sin(tick() * int) / 5 * math.min(1, int2 / 10), 0.25 * deltaTime)

	if rootMagnitude > 1 then
		val = lerp(val, math.cos(tick() * 0.5 * math.floor(int)) * (int / 200), 0.25 * deltaTime)
	else
		val = lerp(val, 0, 0.05 * deltaTime)
	end

	if rootMagnitude > 6 then
		int = 10
		int2 = 9
	elseif rootMagnitude > 0.1 then
		int = 6
		int2 = 7
	else
		int2 = 0
	end

	Player.CameraMaxZoomDistance = MAX_ZOOM_DISTANCE
	Player.CameraMinZoomDistance = MIN_ZOOM_DISTANCE
	vect3 = lerp(vect3, Camera.CFrame.LookVector, 0.125 * deltaTime)
end

-- Connect the update function to RenderStepped for continuous updates
bobbing = RunService.RenderStepped:Connect(updateCamera)

here is how it behaves

Thanks, but I do not need this
