Changing the z axis kinda breaks the camera

[wide dagger]

I found this post showing how to Make first person camera be in head’s position and it works perfectly untell i change the cameras z axis in line 13, also if possible someone tell me how to make it a server-side script so all players can see it thx.

local cam = workspace.CurrentCamera
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")

local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local upperTorso = char:WaitForChild("UpperTorso")

local waist = upperTorso:WaitForChild("Waist")

local y = waist.C0.Y

RunService.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
    char.Humanoid.CameraOffset = (char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").CFrame + Vector3.new(0, 1, 0)):PointToObjectSpace(char:WaitForChild("Head").Position)
    if waist then
        local camDirection = cam.CFrame.LookVector
        local angle = math.deg(camDirection:Angle(char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").CFrame.LookVector, cam.CFrame.RightVector))
        waist.C0 = waist.C0:Lerp((CFrame.new(0, y, 0) * CFrame.Angles(math.rad(math.clamp(-angle, -70, 70)),0,0)), 0.5/2)
        
    end
end)

You can't make this server sided. Changing the players camera is something that can only be done on the client as the client has ownership over it (I am pretty sure).

And what is the exact problem with line 13?

In the solution to the post they use a different y value.

char.Humanoid.CameraOffset = (char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").CFrame + Vector3.new(0, 1.5, 0)):PointToObjectSpace(char:WaitForChild("Head").Position)

Maybe try that out?

i meant the torso and head follow where the player looks

[wide dagger]

the y works fine but i want the camera to be moved forward, when i change the z the line breaks

it looks like this

Use IK Controls for that.

what do you mean by "the line breaks" does it error?

[agile plover]

it shatters into 10 million pieces

[inland flicker]

maybe just add an extra 1 to the char.Humanoid.CameraOffset on the z

Dramatic

like this?
char.Humanoid.CameraOffset = (char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").CFrame + Vector3.new(0, 1, 0)):PointToObjectSpace(char:WaitForChild("Head").Position) + Vector3.new(0, 0, -1)

[inland flicker]

idk.

I was thinking something like:

char.Humanoid.CameraOffset += Vector3.new(0,0,-1)

But that should work aswell.

it mostly worked but when i look up the camera goes inside the torso

[inland flicker]

oh well

why don't you actually just make the torso invisible tho. (For the client) Wouldn't that make things so much easier

[wide dagger]

it does fix it but i want the player to be able to see their body, im just gonna scrap the torso moving thing and just make the head move where the player looks instead

[inland flicker]

If that fixes your problem
