camera

I'm trying to make a cinematic through my map to showcase my level designing. At certain points in the cinematic, the camera will rotate the longer way around than the short way, in other words, the camera rotates over 200 degrees, instead of less than 50. This is incredibly frustrating as it...

Hello, I'm making a system that includes setting a camera setup and restart the camera as how it was before, I'm including the field of view and saving it using: prevCamera.fieldOfView = GetCameraField(CAMERA_FIELD_FIELD_OF_VIEW) and to restart it I do...

Hello, in the map I'm working I wanna divide it in "sectors" so I opted to take screenshots of every sector the map and then used them as minimap and change the camera bounds to the region that covers that sector, but the minimap doesn't match with what the camera is seeing, I tried to adapt the...

I'm adding this here because unlike my other wc3 custom maps I've made, this one is big enough that I think it requires its own unique thread. NOTE: If you are interested in my socials: https://linktr.ee/Dregonx will lead you to them. Credits for ALL models/icons etc used are mentioned...

Rarely when my map starts a manabar becomes stuck to the screen/camera, as shown in the attached file. Restarting the map usually fixes this. Anyone any idea why this happens? I got a lot of triggers firing at the start, preloading, hiding and moving things around. I guess it has...

does anyone know how to zoom out the camera in the mpq files?

Hi, i have a simple system to set a camera via zoom + value to a new distance but as you can the higher the value, the more i can not see anything. Any ideas whats wrong? My map is completly written in vjass. Zoom 2500 is ok, but higher values causes this black screen. Is this fog or what is...

Is there a way get this to refer to a player of choice in multiplayer?

Hi everyone, I have been looking for a mouse camera system with WASD controls and this one is simply fantastic. Although the map is protected so I can't study the triggers. Do some on you have any idea how such beautiful work has been done? Any tutorial link? I'd love to implement a system like...

I've made this trigger with Event: Map Initialization and when I test my map, everything is black, nothing is seen. I tried with locking camera target first too, but it doesn't work either. I have no idea why it occurs. I was doing this simple trigger sometimes and I never had any problem.

A deeper analysis on portraits and how far the frames can be pushed

If you're like me, setting up portraits can get really annoying. Especially when you have to make multiple tweaks, re-imports to maps, and needing to wait until you see the actual portrait in-game to see if you actually set it up right. So I'm suggesting this feature hoping any tool dev would see

Hey, so I've got 3 textures converted to .blp with BLP Lab matching the original texture sizes from the model: 128x512, 128x512 and 256x512. They glitch if the camera is too far from them both in the editor and in the game for some reason. EDIT: discovered something in BLP Lab EDIT2: tried...

Is there a way to remove the black fog that overtakes the screen from the top down when the in-game camera's distance is set further than 4000? I'd like the player to be able to zoom out further I found this post (How do you remove the black layer when you zoom out?) which says that it can be...

What are the best triggers to have your camera have a top-down view similar to Warcraft 2?

I'm making a mult-level city out of walkable doodads and I need a camera system which will change a players camera height depending on which level of the city their camera is centered on. I currently have this, but how do I make it functional for multiple players? I don't know anything about...

Is it possible to change the defeault camera angle/rotate it for the whole game? So when the game starts it's not the normal camera rotation, but basically a 90° rotated view, which lets you see the map from another direction than the defeault one. Thanks in advance!

Sup Having problems with the in-game cameras not matching the ones created in the WE, which makes the process of creating cinematics extremely tedious. Anyone encountered the same issue? And does anyone know how to fix it? Thanks in advance, have a good one :)

Good morning, I have been looking around for a trigger or maybe someone knows a simpler way of making it so when u press spacebar the camera centers on your hero 1 similarly to what F1 does. Is that possible? I am in the middle of finishing a MOBA and that is one of the last things I want for it.

Hey there, currently working on a Camera-System that rotates the camera depending on where the current camera view is. The only suspicious Action that could cause an Desync is "Source of current camera view", (because it gets the data locally, im not sure?) So if that function causes the...

So, today I came up with this crash function: function Crash takes nothing returns nothing call SetCameraField(CAMERA_FIELD_ROTATION, GetRandomReal(240, 300), 0.00) call SetCameraBounds(-1000, -1000, -1000, 1000, 1000, 1000, 1000, -1000) // just any bounds, even GetWorldBounds()...

Is there a warcraft 3 map that is like a Choose Your Own adventure game? Like those text adventures. I was thinking of a map where the player picks a choice and a in game camera cinematic is played displaying actions in the story, so I wonder if there are any custom maps like this? If there...

I need a trigger/event that checks a player's camera position. I want to change the camera distance (ik how to do this part) when the player hovers over the camera to a specific area of the map. Any Ideas?

I'm trying to get the camera to adjust through mousemovement. When moving the mouse horizontally, the rotation should change. When moving it vertically, the angle of attack should change. I've got it working nicely, but only when I enable them separately. Once I enable both, angle of attack...

Hello, I'm having trouble trying to get this trigger working. My goal is to have the camera lock to the player's hero, but with some additional options like allowing the camera to extend outwards when you move the mouse towards the edge of the screen. So I basically want a camera deadzone, check...

Is it possible to get the screen resolution or aspect ratio of a player via GUI or jass? I want to assign different cameras to players, based on their screen resolution/aspect ratio. Some video settings cut off vital parts of the screen, if all player are using the same camera. Or is there...

Hello everyone! To start, I only have two camera commands: "-cam", and "-setcam". The "-cam" command works perfectly fine, nothing wrong there; the "-setcam" command is where the issue is. I want "-setcam" to be an advanced camera command where a player can permanently keep the camera height...

Hello everyone I tried and failed now to make a camera system where you click on the floor and rotate around your unit by dragging the world around in relation to the mouse courser as the fix point. The thing is it kind of works sometimes, especially when you keep the mouse clicked and draged...

For some reason, my camera/view is floating about .500 above the normal level. When I zoom all the way in - it stops at about the middle of a lordaeron tree's height. When I swap from Doodads/terrain/units/region to camera - it fixes itself, but only so long as I am in that tab. While it is...

I need you to edit the camera of this model so that it is in the same portrait position as the captain of warcraft 3

Is there any way we can disable the use of Delete and Insert camera altering? These buttons will greatly reduce the quality of maps with locked cameras.
