Side scrolling camera

m_orbidlyfat · August 10, 2020, 5:28pm

So, I’m making a Glass based game and I’m trying to manipulate the camera to focus on the ‘side’ of the character.

I have tried to use the Camera properties in the Explorer, although through ssome research I saw that it would be only manipulated via scripts, by using CFrame & vVctor3 offsets I believe.

As stated before, I have tried with messing about with the Camera properties in the Explorer window, but no luck.

Any help will be grateful,

If I’m understanding correctly, you’re going to need the player’s input for controls along with the use of the CurrentCamera object located in the workspace.

The tutorial that @ThomasMGardiner mentioned will help, but specifically parts 1 and 2:

Part 2 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_HUlchTZqs

After following the 2 videos above, you should be ready to go!
