Smooth Camera Follow

This script lets the user pick a camera/view and a prop/target to follow. The camera will always be facing the direction of the target prop with delay as an adjustable factor. The Offset values creates a distance between the view and the target. Use the Delay value to create a lag between the view and the target.

Learn How to

  • Drive the motion of the camera according to the animation of a prop.
  • Populate drop down menus/combo boxes with elements from the scene.
  • Set timer and event callbacks and attach commands.

Required Files

  • iClone scene with camera and animated prop
  • Smooth Camera Follow Python script
  • Extensions Python script

Steps to Take

  1. Unzip the contents of Smooth Camera Follow.zip into the iClone install directory ...\Bin64\OpenPlugin.
  2. Load the script into the project from the menu: Plugins > Python Samples > Smooth Camera Follow.
  3. Follow the instructions in the subsequent dialog window.
