Question How to use Cinemachine Camera Offset

Hi! I'm trying to do a third person shooter camera, with character more to the left, using the Cinemachine Free Look and Camera Offset extension. But apparently the offset extension isn't being considered in the Collider extension, so it's like the camera offset is always (0, 0, 0). How to solve that?????

 

I'm in need of help of toggling from a left and right cam in third person. Any help through code is appreciated.

 

Really looking to find a way to do the 3rd person strafe such as Fortnite/Pugb/PWZ, its the first things the kids at the club want to do.

FreeLook is the closest we can do, but the collider extension doesn't work.

The 3rd Person with Aim mode (as suggested), doesn't use the 3rdPersonFollow, it uses framing transposer, which means the character walks back on the opposite side.

The 3rdPersonFollow comes close, but left/right and mouse are not the same.

I guess there is a combination in the million and one buttons and sliders, but it would be great if there was something a little more straightforward.

any guidance or examples would be really appreciated.

 

Hi Gregory,
Thanks for getting back.
I think I have solved this, but here is what I followed and discovered, and would be interested if you agree or advise otherwise.

I have downloaded a fresh copy of the AimingRig from CM2.7.3.
The sample (which only animates forwards and backwards) is smooth in the y motion as the player moves forward.

However, If you replace your Jog animation with the Mixamo riffle pack run forward animation. (even with a new avatar/model to fit).

the Camera moves up/down as the player moves forward, this is because the animation has some small up/down movement in to and it is very distracting.
For a 3rd person shooter, you would want to take Y the damping down from 0.5 to 0, which makes it almost impossible to watch.
Even with 0.5 it is very hard on the eyes.

So I then looked at the animation and found that if I selected: bake into pose in the section Root Transform Position (Y), then it worked great.
