[Try]

Hellloooo guysss again!

I have a question how i can do the camera move at the map without the player Like a video

and its possible camera target a object?

[Castillo]

Maybe you mean 'freecam'? is a resource that comes with MTA when you install it.

Do you want to make the camera moving to a certain position?

So like when you join u see the camera moving to a house for example?

[Try]

No and no

I need like start at a point the it show like a vehicle flying and stoping at the airport then the camera show at the player like a mini video

Here is my intro script:

--©, 2011 
function tuto() 
local guy = getPlayerAccount(source) 
     --If he is new show the intro 
     if (getAccountData(guy,"Achievement: New Guy") == false ) then 
  
   --Spawn the player so he is not stuck 
   spawnPlayer (source, -3255.5166015625+math.random(0,0), 1848.876953125+math.random(0,0), 9.8706741333008, 178.27844238281, math.random(265,312)) 
   setCameraTarget(source, true) 
  
    --Disable HUD 
    showPlayerHudComponent(source, "radar", false) 
    showChat(source, false) 
  
     --Put the camera infront of the house and other stuff 
     fadeCamera(source, false) 
     setTimer(fadeCamera, 4500, 1, source, true) 
     setTimer(setElementPosition, 3000, 1, source, -3255.5166015625+math.random(0,0.5), 1848.876953125+math.random(0,1), 9.8706741333008, 178.27844238281)

     setTimer(fadeCamera, 12000, 1, source, false) 
     setTimer(fadeCamera, 15000, 1, source, true) 
     setTimer(setCameraTarget, 14500, 1, source)

    setTimer(showPlayerHudComponent, 13900, 1, source, "radar", true) 
    setTimer(showChat, 13900, 1, source, true) 
else

outputChatBox("Welcome back!", source, 0, 240, 0, false) 
fadeCamera(source, true) 
spawnPlayer (source, -3255.1701660156+math.random(0,3), 1838.9616699219+math.random(0,3), 9.8706741333008, 192.73875427246, math.random(265,312)) 
setCameraTarget(source, true) 
end 
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerLogin", getRootElement(), tuto) 

I remove this code within 1 week (Due to script stealers, so make sure you copy & paste it)

[will briggs]

I really wouldnt bother removing anything, unless they have the rest of the script, Which they probably dont. There aint no point of taking it ^^

[Try]

Humm :\ sorrryy but i think u fail

I need now the camera target at the object then the player login

obj = createObject(1220,0,0,3)

setElementAlpha(obj,0)

setCameraTarget(source,obj)

moveObject(obj,20000,1,1,3)

possitions its exemples

[JR10]

Something like:

Just an example to show you how.

--client side 
addEventHandler("onClientPreRender", root, 
function() 
local x, y, z = getElementPosition(obj) 
setCameraMatrix(0, 0, 0, x, y, z) 
end) 

Here, 0,0,0 are where the camera will stay.

x,y,z are the coords of the object and the camera will keep rotation with the obj, something like exactly what you want.

However, you need to trigger a client event that will add that handler, maybe pass the object somehow.

And then later when the intro is done trigger a client event that will remove the event handler, or just make a timer.

Humm :\ sorrryy but i think u fail

Tah, Most people hate me and think i fail :

[Jaysds1]

No shouldn't hate you in these forums...

Sometime people just confuse other people and say there a fail... but really them selves is a fail.

[Try]

Ok Thanks but its possible to fade the camera at the object???

[Jaysds1]

ya, it's possible to fade a camera at a object...

but first use setCameraTarget...

[JR10]

setCameraTarget?, why?

setCameraTarget currently works only with players, so you can't set the camera target on an object.

[Jaysds1]

I meant setCameraTarget serverside...

the player and the element which is the object...

[JR10]

setCameraTarget server/client side only works on players

This function allows you to set a player's camera to follow other elements instead. Currently supported element type is:

Players

ok ok ok, u got me
