Question Cannot Convert string to bool error

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Collections;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using UnityEngine;
4.  
5. public class CamSwitcher : MonoBehaviour
6.  
7. {
8.     public GameObject cam1;
9.     public GameObject cam2;
10.    
11.      // Start is called before the first frame update
12.     void Start()
13.     {
14.        
15.     }
16.  
17.     // Update is called once per frame
18.     void Update()
19.     {
20.        if (Input.GetButtonDown("v"))
21.        {
22.           //setting cam1 active
23.           cam1.SetActive("True");
24.           cam2.SetActive("False");
25.        }
26.        if (Input.GetButtonDown("c"))
27.        {
28.         //setting cam2 active
29.         cam1.SetActive("False");
30.         cam2.SetActive("True");
31.        }
32.  
33.  
34.     }
35. }
36.  

It says cannot convert string to bool... what am i doing wrong here?

 

cam1.SetActive(true);
no ""

 

Thanks so much!

 

Just want to call out that I see you playing with camera stuff... Unity offers a Cinemachine package which is pretty awesome in all that it does... might be worth your time to investigate.

Cinemachine can be installed from the Unity Package Manager.

There's even a dedicated forum: https://forum.unity.com/forums/cinemachine.136/
