Framing Transposer - Camera Distance Only

Is there any way to use the Framing Transposer just for dolly out to frame the group without changing the position to fit all objects? I want the main character to be at the center of screen at all times but the dolly out to accommodate enemies other objects. I've tried adding enemies to the Target Group as a very small weight and large radius but that still contributes to the position of the camera a bit which isn't ideal. Any ideas?

 

Eureka! Can do. This would be a great mode to add to Cinema Machine. Distance Framing Only or something.

 

Could you put your Script Jimmy please ?

Thanks for help

 

necro, but I just came across this exact problem. After trying out custom CinemachineExtentions to revert the position changes and writing custom scripts for camera framing, the solution proposed by @Gregoryl is surprisingly simple and achieves exactly what I was looking for!

@YannigJuicy, here is a simple script that does what you want:

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using Cinemachine;
4.  
5. namespace Nachtwerk
6. {
7.     /// <summary>
8.     /// This component updates the radius of a CinemachienTargetGroup Target, based on distances to Targets defined in this script.
9.     /// This can be used to utilize a FramingTransposer on a CinemachienVirtualCamera in order to dolly out to frame the group without
10.     /// changing the local X/Z position to fit all objects, i.e. to get a "true dolly" without any other camera movement.
11.     /// To use this component, just define all targets you want to frame here and only add a single target to the CinemachineTargetGroup, the one you want to center on.
12.     /// </summary>
13.     [RequireComponent(typeof(CinemachineTargetGroup))]
14.     public class FramedTargetGroupRadiusUpdater : MonoBehaviour
15.     {
16.         [System.Serializable]
17.         public class Target
18.         {
19.             public Transform Transform;
20.             public float Radius;
21.         }
22.  
23.         public List<Target> Targets = new List<Target>();
24.         private CinemachineTargetGroup _targetGroup;
25.  
26.  
27.         private void Update()
28.         {
29.             UpdateRadius();
30.         }
31.  
32.         private void UpdateRadius()
33.         {
34.             if (TargetGroup == null || TargetGroup.m_Targets.Length == 0)
35.                 return;
36.  
37.             float maxDistance = 0f;
38.             foreach(Target target in Targets)
39.             {
40.                 float targetDistance = (TargetGroup.Transform.position - target.Transform.position).magnitude + target.Radius;
41.                 if (targetDistance > maxDistance)
42.                     maxDistance = targetDistance;
43.             }
44.  
45.             CinemachineTargetGroup.Target[] cinemachineTargets = TargetGroup.m_Targets;
46.             cinemachineTargets[0].radius = maxDistance;
47.             TargetGroup.m_Targets = cinemachineTargets;
48.         }
49.  
50.         private CinemachineTargetGroup TargetGroup
51.         {
52.             get
53.             {
54.                 if (_targetGroup == null)
55.                     _targetGroup = GetComponent<CinemachineTargetGroup>();
56.                 return _targetGroup;
57.             }
58.         }
59.     }
60. }
