How could i go about creating a custom camera script?

I'm a little new to scripting, a general explanation of the functions i would need to use and/or a finished script with comments and outlines i could walk through myself would be useful (im not asking for free scripts, i'd probably edit and customize any if i got one to my tastes anyways.)

What i want is probably easiest explained using pictures. So here we go, crappy arts:



Woah, that turned out worse than i thought. xD anyways, the camera would roll backwards and look up when the mouse was moved until a certain point, and would roll forwards looking down, rather than just rotating to see more, it would move, more closely simulating a persons head when they look up or down, how could i accomplish this without using built in packages and scripts?

I'f this isn't very clear tell me what i should clarify so that its easier to understand. thanks ^u^

You could use the default cam scripts, and all other cam scripts available for a reference to create your own. If you don't know how to script very well then perhaps tutorials would be your best bet.

Also the collaboration sector of the forum is a great place to get custom work done for money or trade.

The MouseLook script is pretty basic and does what you're asking.

 

Try this

snortop, you think i didnt already google that? what i found wasn't helpful. which is why im defining what im looking for more clearly.

the mouselook script isn't very helpful in terms of documentation etc. and doesnt help me with the movement i need, just rotation, which i am already capable of doing, which is why im not looking for help in that.

 

Well then you could have said so in the message.
Soo it wasent clearly in the message.

The seach on google gave lots of tutorials on fps movement script.

In the picture it show that you looking for something that rotate the camera up and down. Which the fps movement script does.

What you want the documentation to say, when you sound like you already know have to do it.

 

If I understood right you want to rotate the camera on an off-center axis. You could do it easily by making the camera object a child of other object that you rotate and has it's pivot in neck's position, then set the camera's pivot to the eyes' position. This should give you the slight movement when rotating the parent object of the camera.

 

Thank you! that would work.
but i still dont know how to script it...

 

Then you would use the stock mouselook script on the parent object
