Camera isn't focusing on a point?

Asked 272 views1 answers

I'm creating a menu and I'm giving the camera something specific to look at. I set its coordinate frame to a certain point and its focus to another (the camera type is scriptable, of course) but it does not focus on the object I specify. The focus is completely unaffacted.

camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
camera.CoordinateFrame = workspace:WaitForChild("lobby"):WaitForChild("pos").CFrame
camera.Focus=subject.CFrame

I'm not sure why it isn't focusing. I have also tried CameraSubject on the part I want it to focus on, but the camera still does not focus.

What is subject? Where was it defined

The Scriptable camera does not allow for Focus to be set independent of the Coordinate Frame.

Use the following format for setting Focus on a Scriptable camera:

Given two Vector3 values:

camera.CoordinateFrame = CFrame.new(PositionCameraIS, PositionCameraPoints)

Given two CFrame values:

camera.CoordinateFrame = (CFramePositionIS, CFrameCameraPoints)

So in your case:

camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
camera.CoordinateFrame = (workspace:WaitForChild("lobby"):WaitForChild("pos").CFrame, subject.CFrame)
