Post [Request] Camera
Okay i know a post about a camera following your character has already been posted(http://forums.mcleodgaming.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=13984), but i couldn't get it to work. Help! Oh and can you guys make it so like in ssf2 how the farther apart the characters are from each other, the more zoomed in or out the camera is.

I thought it was something like you have one big invisible box and when the instances(Or mc's for movieclips) are far farther apart the vcam zooms out but when the instances are closer together it zooms in.

There's A code I use.
Code:
var CamDist:Number = Math.sqrt(Math.abs((CamCurrX - (_root.ichigo_bored.gif._x - (_root._width/2)))) + Math.abs((CamCurrY - (_root.character._x - (_root._width/2)))));
var CamAngle:Number = Math.atan2(Math.abs((CamCurrY - (_root.ichigo_bored.gif._y - (_root._height/2)))),Math.abs((CamCurrX - (_root.character._x - (_root._width/2)))));
if(charSpeed > 10){
var CamSpeed:Number = charSpeed *.5;
}else{
var CamSpeed:Number = 5;
}
if(CamDist > CamSpeed){
var CamCurrY:Number = CamCurrY + (CamSpeed * Math.cos(CamAngle));
var CamCurrX:Number = CamCurrX + (CamSpeed * Math.sin(CamAngle));
}
_root._x = CamCurrX;
_root._y = CamCurrY;


It focuses on the whole stage.
Tell me if it works or not because It works fine with me.

Ok look at this tutorial on youtube.
YouTube Video:

And when he gets to the part that says paste the vcam script in layer 1 (which will be under actions in the vid) paste the code I gave you.
To make it easier how about I just let you have a copy of my vcam, and all you will have to do is import it to the library and drag to the stage
(Private message me for the link because I can't file share without getting a second warning),

Post Re: [Request] Camera
What type of video camera should I use? I want to create an amature movie. I have a boom mike but a standard digital video camera that seems to deliver poor picture quality and movement. I know there is a great difference in a home shot video camera and a production quality movie, i just don't know what that is. Could someone suggest an affordable camera that could deliver movie quality video?

Perhaps you're forgetting the guy who invented the actionscript camera? http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/javascr ... tml?page=2

It was made for Adam Phillips, master flash animator.

It will work like this.

Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
_y += (_root.Char._y-_y);
_x += (_root.Char._x-_x);
}


Basically you could put this to ANYthing. What it will do is put something right on the listed MC. If you want a camera to follow the player, make sure the vcam source code is INSIDE the vcam, and put the code i just gave you up there out side of the vcam.

Now time to explain the code...

Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
_y += (_root.Char._y-_y); // this is the Y axis.(which tells what the MC y axis number it is in)
_x += (_root.Char._x-_x); // this is the X axis.(which tells what the MC x axis number it is in)
} //end if


Hope this helped.

It's still not working! Maybe flash hates me...I wonder what cleod9 uses for the camera. That would end this problem.

Did you remove the "char" and replace it with your movieclip's instance name?

Try that one, it should work, its all ready made for flash, but it may not work for your flash... just try it.

scroll down the page and it should have a link saying vcam flash download or something, click on that and it should download. Hope it works for you!

First thing I do with any code I didn't type up myself, check what to change.
