I'm trying to make a shouldercamera?

Asked by 9 years ago
wait (1)
cam = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
char = script.Parent.Parent.Character
cam.CameraSubject = char:FindFirstChild("Right Arm")
cam.CameraType = "Follow"

game.Players.LocalPlayer.CameraMaxZoomDistance = [[20]]
game.Players.LocalPlayer.CameraMinZoomDistance = [[19]]

So Everything is working correctly, except The CameraZoomdistance properties aren't working, the player can still zoom in and out using I and O What am I doing wrong?

Please edit your post to use the "Lua" formatting button. That way, we can then read your code a bit easier. RoboFrog 400 — 9y

instead of using CameraMaxZoomDistance = [[20]] you should use CameraMaxZoomDistance = 20, see if that works.

I've answered this question many times.

ALLOW_TOGGLE = true    -- true/false Allows the shoulder camera to be toggled using the key binded below.
TOGGLE_KEY = "p"       -- If ALLOW_TOGGLE is true, this key is used to toggle the shoulder camera. Also you can change it to right click if you you want to, or change it to other hot keys.
DEFAULT_ENABLED = true -- true/false. The default enabled state of the shoulder camera. Forced to true if toggling isn't allowed.
SMOOTH_ROTATION = true -- true/false. Makes your torso turn smoothly instead of sharply. Note that it puts a Body Gyro into the Torso.

Its better if you did it this way. (BY THE WAY, PUT THE SCRIPT IN LOCALSCRIPT) woodengop 1134 — 9y
