For those who may be using the Enhanced Mapping and having the bug of holding the key down and it starts changing cameras like crazy, you can go to your IMC_Default, open your Mapping for changing the camera, go to Triggers, add a new one and choose Pressed per example. Worked perfectly for me

[@Sailor-X-Topher]

Thank you this was the exact thing I was having an issue with.

[@loganstewart6133]

Yes! Thank you very much. I was confused for a good several minutes.

[@TagNull]

I found that it's quicker to just call on the C key through enhanced mapping, it made it stop repeating

[@fvertical2530]

thanks buddy

[@Ckinproduction]

If you are using the EnhancedInputAction event you can click the little drop down arrow and it will give you a "Started" pin. Just connect the "Started" pin to the input pin on the Flip Flop node.

[@simon-louiset]

If you are experiencing some jittering when switching movement direction, you have do disable the ORIENT ROTATION TO MOVEMENT from the character component when you switch to the first person camera. When you switch back to third person, re enable it (if you are using the default third person template)

Thank you man!! I really appreciate it! yeah basically just enable "use pawn control rotion" on the fps camera, im glad you could fix the issue 😀💪

Awesome thanks for the tutorial! However my first person camera is clipping with my body when adding animations how can I change this?

[@borrowedtruths6955]

Perfect, just what I was looking for. I deleted everything but the arms from the UE5 default character in Blender and then reimported them as their own skeleton. But I can't figure out how to add the custom animation I made to my state machine for those custom arms? I set them in the input settings under the letter 'z', but they don't show up in the asset browser. Any help would be great.

[@Mirakuruuu]

Very nice! Though i wish you'd include a third person version that you can toggle between left and right side camera view as well

[@GorkaGames]

Thanks! Yeah good idea, I will note it down for a future tutorial!

[@Mirakuruuu]

@@GorkaGames Greetings sir. I am back to give you an update about the new "Enhanced Input" version of UE5. This tutorial is now unfortunately invalid ( unless devs still wants to use the old input version ) but i hope in the future you'd provide 2 versions of your tutorials if it involves input customizations

[@predater5017]

@@GorkaGames did you make this yet im trying to figure this out myself. i manage to get it working kind of but when i go from right sided 3rd person veiw to first person then back to 3rd person it switches to the left side instead of going back to right.

[@islandonlinenews]

when i come out of first person I lose ability to look around properly, unless I select use control rotation yaw on both cams...

Do I have to set it up a different way when using it in multiplayer with a dedicated server regarding replication maybe?

Im new in this scene and it fells so great if somthing works

[@tankdgamer]

do you know how to do this through enhance input action as it won't work for me though the steps you showed because of this error "Axis and Action mappings are now deprecated, please use Enhanced Input Actions and Input Mapping Contexts instead"

[@GorkaGames]

thanks! What you can do is migrate the character BP into your project so you can re-use it, or you can copy the blueprints here: blueprintue.com and then have them as a note so you can copy them back into your new project

[@brianborrero4584]

Thankful for this video! If you know By any chance, how can I add this but for a phone game? Like to add the option in a game menu to switch camera?

yeah absolutely, you will need to make awidget and add a button which will call this function

[@Love_Peace_Giver]

thanks!!!!

[@GorkaGames]

[@TL332]

Do you also need to switch animations between first and third person or does this happen automatically?

[@sandroavieira]

And what would it be like to do this from first to third person as configured in Skyrim, using the mouse scroller? Any ideas?

[@DiamantMains]

Is the process the same if you want the 3rd person cam to be free look and First person cam?

[@brokenmemorycard]

Hi I love your videos! I did this and it works, however when I press the button to activate it it jitters quite a bit before it transitions. Is there any way to fix that?

[@sebay4654]

i find it funny how i managed to implement this in a completely different way (when the button press is completed it runs a set active node with a not boolean referencing the current active state of the camera causing a binary flip to occur

[@nicolascrouzille6325]

Hii, amazing video as always and very simple to understand. But how do i do, if i dont want to have the movement of the head on camera if i'm on the first person ?? Cause now, when i get on first person, i'll see a movement on the view which is the movement of the head that i dont want. I want it to be steady. Thx in advance.

[@R-SXX]

Really cool! But one question; what if you want to change Perspective Mode after changing the game mode? For example. you first are in a garage in fps mode and once you exit the garage you are inside the vehicle. Can this used/altered for that as well?

[@GorkaGames]

Yeah you can use this system to implemented in whatever situation you desire. But instead of calling it from a key, you would call the change perspective event from the drive interaction.

[@devahere2291]

just subscribe your channel so much thanks for video

[@GorkaGames]

my pleasure!! thank you for the support!

[@HasimFN]

can you do when you zoom in it goes first person. but without snapping it goes smoothly to the second camera.

[@MatyasCensky]

Question: If we want to start with First Person view. Controller Rotation Yaw is not auto activated. Only after switching the camera view twice. I have solved this by setting the Controller Rotation Yaw to active in Event Begin Play and it does work. However, is this the correct approach or is there an easier way? Awesome tutorial, thank you.

[@dnm.design]

What should I do at 2:30 if I need to do it with Enhanced inputs? I'm stucked there :(

[@dashingmlg601]

this is a great turoial but i have tried setting pitch controls and a bunch of other commands but my first person camera isnt able to move up or down (pitch problem)

[@alonsotglima9494]

(Using the translator) Congratulations on the video and work. In your opinion, why do FPS games not have shadows, or do we not see the character's feet? It's ridiculous for you to walk in front of a light source and not see your shadow on the wall, or for you to look down to pick up an item and not see your feet. People open drawers or doors with the power of their mind, as we don't see the character touch the object. The damn thing in Resident Evil 7, you see the character lean on a wall, or a door, but when you open a drawer, it opens by itself. Well... that's it... good health and success!

[@romanmorgan3708]

Hi! It works well. But after I turned player start direction and make 1stperson camera active from start - body stoped to follow 1Pcam and I can literally look at my chest as if my head is spinning 360 degrees (like without yaw node). But if I switch on 3rd and then on 1st again, this works well again. I tried to reset script but it not helped. What I need to fix this issue? Thanks !

[@chickennugget7339]

I am having the same problem. Hopefully there is a simple fix.

[@unholynimble5723]

Would this work for a Co-Op FPS or would it mess with animations or aim or anything at all? Edit: Or would I just have to create "if first person"/"if third person" boo-leans? Confused as in the other tutorials I've watched so far the guy has 1st person arms and a 3rd person full body mesh for only other players to see.

[@hunterdeloney4711]

Is there a way to make the switch between cameras smooth

[@dax_orion]

Thanks for this, works great for the most part, but I am experiencing a bug where the 1st camera sometimes gets out of sync with the player rotation, any idea how to fix?

[@dax_orion]

Figured it out. I was wrong about what's happening, basically the 3rd person default pose for the default character has it in a forward stance where the head is rotated slightly, you need to change the default pose to fix this.

[@nillxskill7229]

How can I use this with LINE TRACE? ( 2 cameras ) when I change the line it is not right.

[@ericjlong2995]

Hey great work! I am using the dynamic combat system in ue4/5. My issue is that when in first person mode, i can rotate and see my face due to something happening in the dynamic combat blueprints. I am confident that i've done everything else correctly. Anybody got an idea?

[@GorkaGames]

yeah so it seems like you are correctly turning the camera, but not the mesh. So make sure that when you are in fps mode you have Y yaw enabled.

[@OnesBeforeALL]

I do the same setting as you do but when i switch to the FP camera my characters skeleton will shown.

[@DimensionX985]

How do I fix that first camera, it goes into the character's head.. I use Mixamo character.. and this is what happens to me when I make a first-person camera
