    Hello,

    This is my first time using Cinemachine and I am figuring out how to zoom in or out on my character using the 2D Camera with my mouse wheel.

    How do I do this in C#?


    Thank You Very Much. :)

    Is your camera ortho or perspective?

    and do you really mean zoom or do you want to dolly the camera closer and further away?

    If you're ortho then dolly won't change anything (because there's no perspective). You'll have to modify OrthographicSize if you want to see a difference onscreen. Just add a script to modify vcam.m_Lens.OrthographicSize according to mouse wheel.

    Code (CSharp):
    1. using UnityEngine;
    2. using Cinemachine;
    3.  
    4. public class Zoom : MonoBehaviour {
    5.  
    6.     void Update()
    7.     {
    8.  
    9.         if (Input.GetAxis("Mouse ScrollWheel") > 0)
    10.         {
    11.           //GetComponent<CinemachineVirtualCamera>().m_Lens.OrthographicSize = ++;
    12.             GetComponent<CinemachineVirtualCamera>().m_Lens.OrthographicSize = 5;
    13.         }
    14.         if (Input.GetAxis("Mouse ScrollWheel") < 0)
    15.         {
    16.           //GetComponent<CinemachineVirtualCamera>().m_Lens.OrthographicSize = --;
    17.             GetComponent<CinemachineVirtualCamera>().m_Lens.OrthographicSize = 20;
    18.         }
    19.     }
    20. }
    Thank you so much for the REPLY :)
