Vinterp not working, despite my best efforts

In the very first second of your vid, you blend between 2 cams, right? Your transition is fast so it’s all nice & dandy, looks pretty good!

Imagine it lasted 5s instead but you decided to go back to the 1st camera mid blend.

Now, the Set View is blending - which camera do you think you’re actually moving? And if you decided to move back to the 1st cam and blend from the 2nd cam → 1st, you’d get a very jarring transition / snap.

One way to handle it is to never allow the player to interrupt the transition. If you decided to go ADS, you must go full ADS and can only go back once you’re done.

The problems with Set View become imminent when you try to interrupt it.


Example:

  • player with 2 cams

  • if I let the transition finish its 2 second blend:

  • and if I do not allow the blend to finish its job:

The Set View has absolutely no idea what is going on if you interrupt it. The only workaround I ever found:

Stop the transition and continue manually. And that’s why I generally avoid the node unless it’s truly a fire & forget thing. Probably irrelevant for something as fast as going ADS, though.
