setCameraTarget problem

[FWCentral]

im trying to create a vehicle shop, I need to make the camera aim at a vehicle.

Client:

  
local veh = createVehicle(560, -1655.89819, 1211.46692, 20.5659,0,0,60) 
setCameraTarget(veh) 
  

This doesn't do anything?

(It does create the vehicle and there are no errors)

Read the wiki note:

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

Players

Use setCameraMatrix instead.

ok i used setCameraMatrix and it changes positions on its own, One time its in one place the next when i restart its moved without me editing it. (NVM working now ) Thanks solidsnake!

Edit: Its still doing the error i mentioned above

if your making a loginGUI then do something like this

function onJoin() 
    outputChatBox("YOur Things") 
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", getRootElement(), onJoin) 
addEvent("playerJoinResourceStart", false) 
addEventHandler("playerJoinResourceStart", getRootElement(), onJoin)

Im trying to make a vehicle shop, the setCameraMatrix worked but it still moves when i reconnect or restart it.

  
veh = createVehicle(560, -1655.89819, 1211.46692, 20.5659,0,0,60) 
setCameraMatrix(-1658.09436, 1219.95898, 22.1562)

What do you mean by "moves"?

[FWCentral]

It just moves, I put it at the right location then restart the script and it looks fine, Then without editing the script again when i reconnect or restart then it moves to a different place right near the place it should be

[Castillo]

Ehm, if you reconnect, the camera will move of course .

(facepalm)

He tries to mean that the camera isn't always posed in the same position when the script is called.

[FWCentral]

Yeah its after the player has chosen a vehicle from the shop that is opened by a marker, so i want it to be in the same position every time.

[Castillo]

Oh, you mean when you set the camera back to the player?

[12p]

(double facepalm)

No, when camera matrix is used.

[FWCentral]

Nah that works fine, its:

veh = createVehicle(560, -1655.89819, 1211.46692, 20.5659,0,0,60)

setCameraMatrix(-1658.09436, 1219.95898, 22.1562)

That makes it go to the right place, Works fine - When i reconnect to the server this will be the exact same script but it will be in a different direction.

EDIT

Seems to be working fine now, Didn't change anything

EDIT

And now its not
