So i made a First Person Mode, it does work and i also added a Free Look Mode where you can tilt your head and look around without changing movement directions
The problem is that i can look behind myself (360°) and therefor would break the characters Neck…
I tried setting it up with “Set View Yaw max/min” to lock the view 90° to the left and 90° to the right directly.
It works, it locks in the degrees - but he doesnt take the characters Mesh or any other component which defines the chars direction in world space…
It instead locks the Yaw in the Axis of the World, so no matter where iam facing with my character, it always locks the camera in the same axis of the world… so i need to somehow get it to use the Axis of my Character, but i dont know how to… i tried so many things but i just cant seem to get it to work …
help?
Here is an Imgur Link to a short video showing the problem (if its not allowed to post pls feel free to delete it@moderators): Lock ViewYaw in FirstPerson “Free Look” Mode
sry for the quality, Imgur renders it lower
(In the second part of the Video i edited something in the blueprint, to try to get the Mesh rotation, didnt work at all)
If you are using a spring arm it will react with collision. So simply adding a camera as a child to the moving object and not returning the YAW when moving the controller / mouse, should suffice.
You have Yaw - (-90) which would just be 90, same as the above “Add float” Node.
Other than that, you should try using a clamp node!
This can be used to bar addition over a certain point and subtraction under a certain point to keep your camera from going too far from it’s desired angle set
Give that a try and if you need any extra guidance just let us know!
