But… this happens when switching from first to third person no clue why
This is the code;
function guns:SwitchCameraType()
local x = self.CameraType
self.CameraType = x ~= 'TPS' and 'TPS' or 'FPS'
x = self.CameraType
if (x == 'FPS') then
self.CameraSystem:Disable()
self.Player.CameraMaxZoomDistance = 0.5
workspace.CurrentCamera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
else
self.Player.CameraMaxZoomDistance = 128
workspace.CurrentCamera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
self.CameraSystem:Enable()
end
end
“CameraSystem”
Is the OTS camera system by @Arbeiters
Check to see if the OTS is changing any transparency values.
If not, then it’s probably something done automatically by the Roblox Camera System, like how you don’t see your own character when going in first person.
I’d say manually set the transparency back to 0 when zooming out for the latter, so you don’t have to edit core scripts.
This happens because the camera type is changed to scriptable before zooming out. The transparency controller becomes disabled before it can reset the character’s transparency. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FzCYQl5th5s
I’m not really familiar with the transparency controller however, you can reset the transparency by requiring the transparency controller, calling its .new() function, then call :SetupTransparency(Character), then running :Update()
Take this code as an example
-- This local script resets the player's transparency whenever the 'R' key it pressed.
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local TransparencyModule = require(player.PlayerScripts:WaitForChild("PlayerModule").CameraModule.TransparencyController)
local controller = TransparencyModule.new()
controller:SetupTransparency(character)
function resetTransparency()
controller:Update() -- Resets the transparency
controller["transparencyDirty"] = true -- "transparencyDirty" get's set to false and when it's false the controller will not reset the transparency.
end
UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gameProcessedEvent)
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.R and not gameProcessedEvent then
resetTransparency()
end
end)
Just be sure to set transparencyDirty to false before calling :Update() or the transparency will not be reset
Try resetting the player’s transparency only when they exit first person, that should fix your problem.
I don’t know your code for toggling the first person mode so I can’t go into much detail.
Still the same.
For toggling the first person I am just locking the cameramode of player to Enum.CameraMode.LockFirstPerson.
And for third person I am locking in ‘CLassic’ and changing Player.CameraMinZoomDistance = 3
function guns.equip(GunModel,Arm)
( removed the other variables :D)
self.controller = TransparencyModule.new()
self.controller:SetupTransparency(self.Character)
self:Equip()
return setmetatable(self,guns)
end
Switching from first/third;
function guns:SwitchCameraType()
local x = self.CameraType
self.CameraType = x ~= 'TPS' and 'TPS' or 'FPS'
x = self.CameraType
if (x == 'FPS') then
self.CameraSystem:Disable()
self.Player.CameraMode = Enum.CameraMode.LockFirstPerson
self.Player.CameraMinZoomDistance = 0.5
workspace.CurrentCamera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
else
self.UIS.MouseIconEnabled = true
self.Player.CameraMode = Enum.CameraMode.Classic
self.Player.CameraMinZoomDistance = 3
self.CameraSystem:Enable()
self.controller:Update()
end
end
So after playing around with the transparency controller I can finally say that I’ve found a better way to change that players transparency that allows you to set it to whatever value you want it to be!
Instead of calling :Update() we can instead get each of it’s .cachedParts and change their .LocalTransparencyModifier value to whatever transparency we want.
Here’s my updated code
-- This local script toggles the player's transparency every second.
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local TransparencyModule = require(player.PlayerScripts:WaitForChild("PlayerModule").CameraModule.TransparencyController)
local controller = TransparencyModule.new()
controller:SetupTransparency(character)
function becomeTransparent()
for i, _ in pairs(controller.cachedParts) do
i.LocalTransparencyModifier = 1
end
end
function resetTransparency()
for i, _ in pairs(controller.cachedParts) do
i.LocalTransparencyModifier = 0
end
end
while wait(1) do
becomeTransparent()
wait(1)
resetTransparency()
end
