How to hold a button to change the camera perspective?

note: I have the GameObjects setup in the inspector and the camera switches to thirdPerson properly but won't go back.

Here is what I've tried:

Code (JavaScript):

1. var topDown : GameObject;
2. var thirdPerson : GameObject;
3.  
4. function Update ()
5. {
6.     if(Input.GetButtonDown("Fire2"))
7.         {
8.             topDown.SetActive(false);
9.             thirdPerson.SetActive(true);
10.         }
11.      
12.     if(Input.GetButtonUp("Fire2"))
13.         {
14.         topDown.SetActive(true);
15.         thirdPerson.SetActive(false);
16.         }
17. }

 

That isn't enough code to see what is happening.

 

I have made a top down camera and a third person camera. I want to hold "Fire 2" to disable topDown and enable thirdPerson and when I release I want the top down camera to become active again.

 

I understand what you are trying to do, but since you don't show what happens when the various items are active or not, I can't help.

 

That's the entirety of the script . Nothing else involved. The topDown Camera gets disabled and thirdPerson camera gets enabled but the problem is, when I release right click topDown does enable and thirdPerson doesn't disable.

 

Hm.
I would change the class variable from GameObject to Camera. And use cam.enabled instead of setActive.


Try that.

 

Try setting the tags of both the cameras to "untagged".
