How can I make the child follow the parent

I dont get why the child is not following the camera, Im using the matinee camera shake for the cam bob btw.

I don’t really get what the problem is…
The “cross” seems to follow the camera as it is always in front of it. What is the behavior you want to achieve?

as you can see the cross does move witg the camera but it doesnt follow the cam bob. The camera matinee shake makes the cross go up and down. I have a cam bob but the cross should still follow the cams z axis.

Ok… So the Player Camera Manager has its own transform. Use it to attach your actor to it instead of attaching to the FirstPersonCamera component like so:

This works in my mock up setup.

(my child actor mesh is offset on the X axis from the actor origin because otherwise the camera is inside it)
