    I want to both follow an object and aim it. I'm trying to make a camera that will aim my object from character only on the x-axis and follow the character completely. If you want to imagine easier; I will set my camera like in the game called "Soccer Story". So I need to change both position and rotation. This is why I used body and aim together in my question.I know that body changes position, aim changes rotation. Maybe I am wrong..

    What have I done so far?
    • I wrote a extention for the body to keep it fixed on the z-axis.
    • Body mode is "Framing Transposer"
    • Following part done so far
    the question point:
    • I cant aim on x axis only. (I tried to write an extension but I think I failed.)
    • How can able to aim to X axis, Y and Z fixed?

    If you wrote an extension to fix the position on the z-axis, then I am sure your rotation fix code was also close. ;)

    Try this to lock the camera rotation on Y and Z axes to a specified value:
    Code (CSharp):
    1. using Cinemachine;
    2. using UnityEngine;
    3.  
    4. [ExecuteAlways]
    5. [SaveDuringPlay]
    6. public class LockCameraRotationYZ : CinemachineExtension
    7. {
    8.     [Tooltip("Lock the camera's rotation around the Y axis to this value")]
    9.     public float LockY = 0;
    10.  
    11.     [Tooltip("Lock the camera's rotation around the Z axis to this value")]
    12.     public float LockZ = 0;
    13.  
    14.     protected override void PostPipelineStageCallback(
    15.         CinemachineVirtualCameraBase vcam,
    16.         CinemachineCore.Stage stage, ref CameraState state, float deltaTime)
    17.     {
    18.         if (stage == CinemachineCore.Stage.Finalize)
    19.         {
    20.             var euler = state.RawOrientation.eulerAngles;
    21.             euler.y = LockY;
    22.             euler.z = LockZ;
    23.             state.RawOrientation = Quaternion.Euler(euler);
    24.         }
    25.     }
    26. }
    27.
