Same issue with the fixed point camera device , doesn’t move at all in any level sequence..

For more clarity, this issue is a direct result from playing a cinematic sequence which uses a camera.

it happens after you play a cinematic that uses a cinematic camera, which might be some important context not mentioned here

I wish it to be fixed but this would be a cool option for players to enable if there using custom heads

This happens as well to me after a cinematic sequence with a cinematic camera!! Ruined my whole maps main perspective. Please fix ASAP was planning on publishing tomorrow and cant due to this

If i publish an unlisted version of my map and the bug gets fixed will I need to update the map or will I be able to just list it without touching it?

FORT-949565 is now ‘In Progress’! Our team is actively working on it!

Technically yeah, you should be safe since the client used by players will be updated and hopefully fixed

Also, thanks to Chitaz for this report

Not sure if it’s directly related to the first person camera device being broken but canted aim is broken as well. There’s also no option to toggle the default third person camera ADS.
