Hey all,
In my current game project I am looking for a way to toggle two camera perspectives.
Both camera perspectives are Third Person, however I want to have two different styles:
- One that is independant of camera angle, the classic third-person you see as a default game
- One that strafes together with the camera, so that you always look and aim wherever the camera is aimed at.
I want to create a system where HOLDING the Right Mouse button will cause your camera to get into “Strafe Mode”, and when you release it, you go back into “Free-Roam mode”
As well, I would like to create a module/system that causes the camera to smoothly zoom out by using the + button (and vice-versa, a smooth zoom-in to its original standpoint).
Lastly, I’m looking for two camera features:
- The camera cannot get into CERTAIN area’s. I don’t want the camera to go through the terrain or some structures, but I do want the camera to be able go through houses, furniture, or walls/ceilings in underground areas.
- The camera should be the ‘trigger object’ when it enters an area that colours or blurs the view (I forgot the name of the Volume), and not the player.
So I am wondering with these things, how do I do them? Unreal 4 changed a lot compared to UnrealDevelopmentKit so I am absolutely clueless
