Camera System

[Chewii]

Hello i want a camera system. That has the same angle as this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvB2WaW3yBk

And that you can change distance and angle with arrow keys.

Thanks! And ofc i will give +rep and credits!

Here are the Triggers for the Camera System that is at the same angle as the Diablo Video shows and can be controlled with Arrow keys. All you have to do is copy the "Camera Triggers" category folder in the Map's Trigger Editor Module and than paste it into your Maps. You have to create the follow variables before pasting the triggers:

Variables

Name - Variable Type - Initial Value

AOA - Real - 310.00
DIS - Real - 1800.00
DIS_R - Real - 50
Move_Down - Boolean - False ( Default )
Move_Left - Boolean - False ( Default )
Move_Right - Boolean - False ( Default )
Move_Up - Boolean - False ( Default )
ROT - Real - 45.00
ROT_R - Real - 5.00

Hope its not too much but in the Included "Map Init" Trigger just Change the Lock Camera Target to your own Unit or Var.

Enjoy.

very very nice ! but i want angle too then its finished ! i will give you +rep very good work man!

Thank you for the Rep , but with your inquiry with:

but i want angle too then its finished

how would you like the angle to be controlled? because currently I have:

• Left and Right = Control Rotation
• Up and Down = Control Distance

thank you. I really want to create a camera system that fits someones requirements to the fullest.

you could like swap between the angle and the distance or the angle and the rotation Like if i press a button on the keyboard the its swapped and a text comes forward and says Angle mode activated and if you press that key again it stands rotation mode activated. Something like that and please don't use the esc key as a swapping key i got plans for that key

And ofc Many many Thanks! Your credits will be on loading screen or ingame credits

Here you go here is the complete list of variables to be included, and the new variables are in bold.

-as GhostThruster corrected me, just copy the variables from the trigger module from the map.

Complete Set of Variables

Name - Variable Type - Initial Value - Usage

AOA_R - Real - 5.00 - Defines the Degrees to Move/Change AOA
UPDOWN_Mode - Boolean - True - Keeps track of Camera Mode
AOA - Real - 310.00 - Initial Angle to Start At, Keeps track of Camera Angle
DIS - Real - 1800.00 - Initial Distance from Character to Start At, Keeps track of Camera Distance
DIS_R - Real - 50 - Defines the increments of movement of the Camera.
Move_Down - Boolean - False ( Default ) - Tracks if Key Pressed
Move_Left - Boolean - False ( Default ) - Tracks if Key Pressed
Move_Right - Boolean - False ( Default ) - Tracks if Key Pressed
Move_Up - Boolean - False ( Default ) - Tracks if Key Pressed
ROT - Real - 45.00 - Initial Angle of Rotation the Camera Starts At, Keeps track of Rotation.
ROT_R - Real - 5.00 - Defines the Degrees to Rotate the Camera in either direction.

Enjoy the Camera System, I can't wait to see the Release of your Project on the Hive!

Dude, you don't have to make new variables!
Just go into File-->Preferences and there is a checkbox that says to cop Object Variables.

Maybe you could use TheFlood´s camera system, just make your own adjustments so that it fit your needs.
Good Luck!

 

[armix8]

Haha, so sorry, I honesty did not pay attention to that. Haha My Bad, I'll remember that for the future!
