Camera doesn't follow plane with different positions

[dissaifer 10]

I am trying to have a few camera shots, the last being one that follows the plane... for some reason it won't. What am I doing wrong?

camera camSetTarget a1;

camera camSetPos [4587.70,10126.40,2.00];

camera camSetFOV 0.224;

camera camCommit 0.01;

@camCommitted camera;

~3

//camera on plane

while {true} do {

_cam camsettarget al;

_cam cameraeffect ["internal", "back"];

_cam camsetrelpos [0, -5, 2];

_cam camcommit 0.01;

sleep 0.01;

};

You're mixing .sqs and .sqf. In what language do you want to make your camscript?

[dissaifer 10]

I thought .sqs was deprecated, but you could still use it. It's very confusing being a noob... I am trying to make a Intro, but have only since it as .sqs.

Ok, then drop the whole "while do" function, it's .sqf. Delete the ";", you don't need them in .sqs. And change the "//" before your comment to ";". Oh, and "sleep" is also .sqf only - use ~5 instead.

Your camscript in .sqs should be looking like this:

camera camSetTarget a1
camera camSetPos [4587.70,10126.40,2.00]
camera camSetFOV 0.224
camera camCommit 0.01
@camCommitted camera

~3


;camera on plane

#MyFirstLoopInSQS
_cam camsettarget al
_cam cameraeffect ["internal", "back"]
_cam camsetrelpos [0, -5, 2]
_cam camcommit 0.01
~0.01
goto "MyFirstLoopInSQS"

You could also create camscipts in .sqf but i prefer .sqs because if you click ingame and then paste the cam's position into a script it's always .sqs syntax.
