Hello guys, I'm trying to make a smooth following vehicle camera and this is the code so far:
Camera cam = World.RenderingCamera;
Entity target = playerVeh;
float damping = 1f; // used for smoothing the following camera, my DeltaTime is bugged, I don't know how to fix the jumping camera...
bool smoothRotation = true;
float rotationDamping = 1.0f;
cam.AttachTo(target, new Vector3(0f, -6f, 1.5f));
//cam.Position = Vector3.Lerp(cam.Position, wantedPosition, DeltaTime.getDeltaTime() * damping);
if (smoothRotation)
{
Quaternion wantedRotation = LookRotation(target.ForwardVector, target.UpVector);
cam.Rotation = Quaternion.Slerp(Quaternion.Euler(cam.Rotation), wantedRotation, DeltaTime.getDeltaTime() * rotationDamping).Axis;
}
else
{
cam.PointAt(target, new Vector3(0f, 5f, 0f));
cam.Rotation = new Vector3(cam.Rotation.X + (1 / playerVeh.SteeringAngle), cam.Rotation.Y, cam.Rotation.Z);
cam.MotionBlurStrength = playerVeh.Speed / 10;
}
The LookRotation method is the same as the one that unity3d uses, why is the camera not rotating? Also for the deltaTime, what is the best method to use in C#?
This is the DeltaTime class:
public static float deltaTime = 10f;
public static float lastTime = Environment.TickCount;
public DeltaTime()
{
this.Tick += onTick;
}
void onTick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var currentTick = Environment.TickCount;
if (currentTick - lastTime >= 1000f)
{
lastTime = currentTick;
}
deltaTime = currentTick - lastTime;
}
public static float getDeltaTime()
{
return deltaTime / 1000f;
}
I need help please! Thank you!
