How to make the camera be like in the game hours.

[empty hedge]

I want to make it like shiftlock but so the player can still spin around and look in one direction. Also I want to remove scrolling away. So that its just locked in place but you can still turn it around wherever. Hope the question makes sense

[edgy hound]

put this in a local script

game:GetService("UserInputService").MouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.LockCenter

[empty hedge]

yes thanks now i just need to somehow make it go 2 studs to the left

i mean right

[spare lark]

** You are now Level 1! **

[edgy hound]

oh that's about the camera

i checked the game hours and notice that it follows a focus point hovering around the player's head

[empty hedge]

yes but it hovers to the right a bit i think

[edgy hound]

here's a thing i did

script if ur curious

[empty hedge]

did the same thing i don't think i messed anything up but it still doesn't work

[edgy hound]

Ur missing = after “RV”

And also, the sceipt and video is just a demonstration i recommend using an attachment rather than a part for focus point

[empty hedge]

alr. Well i can't really get it to work right so Ill make a new post

[edgy hound]

Just tell me what’s wrong

[spare lark]

** You are now Level 2! **

[empty hedge]

well offseting the camera but getting the cursos to be above my shoulder not on my avatars head

[edgy hound]

You can see i already did that in this video

If you dont know what was truly wrong with the script you wrote then turn on output tab

https://create.roblox.com/docs/studio/output

[empty hedge]

ok now your code up there works just it doesn't follow my chracter at all

also for me its not a cube :|

[edgy hound]

Just… screenshot ur studio for me bro 😭

[empty hedge]

what part????

[edgy hound]

The whole thing

[edgy hound]

I surposse the floor is named “Part”…

[empty hedge]

yea

[edgy hound]

Ofc it doesnt work

[empty hedge]

I should rename it

and 1431 other stuff

[edgy hound]

No

I mean

You dont need to

[empty hedge]

yea i could just rename the cube and in the code change the "part" thing

[edgy hound]

The script earlier i send pick an ovject named “Part” and make it the focus point

[edgy hound]

You can add a part into the workspace

Rename it into something else

Like “focuspoint”

Then change the “part”s in the script into that name

And after it work you can change the added brick’s transparency to 1 and cancollide to false

[empty hedge]

okay so now it still doesn't work and a random wall apears after you spawn

[spare lark]

** You are now Level 2! **

[empty hedge]

the code should be alr

[edgy hound]

It looks like that cube is welded into the floor

Check its children

[empty hedge]

ooh do i unlock it?

[edgy hound]

Yes

Delete its welds

[empty hedge]

nvm it wasn't even locked

or anchored

[edgy hound]

And scale the cube down btw

[empty hedge]

do i change the workspace.part the part in that to focuspoint?

[edgy hound]

Is the cube “focuspoint”?

[empty hedge]

i changed that now nothing spawns behind me

but i relized the cube falls to the ground

[empty hedge]

ye

[edgy hound]

Hmmm, try move it so that it float before starting the game

[empty hedge]

it does already

[edgy hound]

Oh wait i was stupid

[spare lark]

** You are now Level 3! **

[edgy hound]

Change the script’s workspace.part to workspace.focuspoint

[empty hedge]

i did already

[empty hedge]

here

[edgy hound]

And it’s still doesnt work?

[empty hedge]

nope but it doesn't spawn a random part of the map behind me so that's fixed

[empty hedge]

what did you mean an attachment tho

[edgy hound]

Forget that for now, let’s focus on the main issue here

[empty hedge]

alright

[edgy hound]

Have you opened output tab like i said?

[empty hedge]

yeah i think

[edgy hound]

Does the tab has anything red when you play the game?

[empty hedge]

Insufficent permissions to set DevEnableMouseLockOption - Studio

Script timeout: exhausted allowed execution time

[edgy hound]

What the?

Broooooo

Change the 0.002 to 0.02

[empty hedge]

oh

...

i didn't even put that part in

[spare lark]

** You are now Level 3! **

[empty hedge]

....

omg

[edgy hound]

There should be a wait(0.02) at the end of the while loop

[empty hedge]

ok what

[edgy hound]

Pls dont tell me ur getting ragdolled

[empty hedge]

no but

bruh dc doesn't allow me to send the video

[edgy hound]

Desribe the problem you having rn

[empty hedge]

i edited it to 720p

[edgy hound]

How much time did you put in wait()?

you can anchor the part btw

[empty hedge]

0.02

ooh

al

r

now it works but its pretty glitchy

that's the only problem now

[edgy hound]

Can i see it?

[edgy hound]

Weird becuz it was pretty smooth when i did it

[empty hedge]

my slow ah wi fi

[empty hedge]

really on video it also looked glitchy

i mean the character

is mostly glitching out since its like the cube teleports a bit if it could go smoothly it would be perfect

imma go eat something real quick

[edgy hound]

Ye true

In the game hours, they used lerp and tween service to make it smooth

[empty hedge]

Whats that?

The animation thing?

[edgy hound]

no

Tween basiclly just move stuff in this context

Alr i will tru to write script with my phone

t = {}
t.Position = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Head.Position + RV * 2
local tweenInfo =TweenInfo.new(0.5)
game:GetService(“TweenService”):Create(workspace.focuspoint, tweenInfo, t):Play()

wait(0.5)

[edgy hound]

Delete the workspace.focus.position and then paste this in

[empty hedge]

The thing under Local RV CFrame?

[empty hedge]

Focus as in focus point?

[edgy hound]

Yes

[edgy hound]

Yeah

[empty hedge]

Alr I'll send you a vid after I do that

[edgy hound]

Ngl this could have ended way earlier if i did and tested my script more carefully

Sorry for the inconvenience

[spare lark]

** You are now Level 4! **

[empty hedge]

Nah dw it was kinda fun

You learn from failure? I never really learnt anything from it but I always think about that quote

[edgy hound]

It’s kinda late now, so if the thing i sent fail i will make a working one tmr, bye

[empty hedge]

Yea alr cya

[empty hedge]

Players.Gabrijelpler.PlayerScripts.LocalScript:15: Expected identifier when parsing expression, got Unicode character U+201c (did you mean '"'?) - Studio - LocalScript:15
Insufficent permissions to set DevEnableMouseLockOption - Studio
The current thread cannot set 'DevEnableMouseLockOption' (lacking capability RobloxScript)

Theese things are red in the output tab.

Also nothing happens now

this is how the code looks hopefully i didn't ruin anything

[edgy hound]

@empty hedge

local camera = workspace.Camera

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local focuspoint = workspace:WaitForChild("focuspoint")
camera.CameraSubject = focuspoint
game:GetService("UserInputService").MouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.LockCenter

while true do
local LV = camera.CFrame.LookVector
local LVnoY = Vector3.new(LV.X,0,LV.Z)
local RV = CFrame.lookAlong(focuspoint.Position,LVnoY,Vector3.yAxis).RightVector
local goal = {}

goal.Position = player.Character.PrimaryPart.Position + Vector3.yAxis * 1.5 + RV *2

local ti = TweenInfo.new(0.08)

game:GetService("TweenService"):Create(focuspoint,ti,goal):Play()


wait(0.02)

end

that should be good

[empty hedge]

Yo looks awesome (sorry I just woke up even tho it's 1pm)
