BlendHint

Hint for transitioning to and from this CinemachineCamera. Hints can be combined, although not all combinations make sense. In the case of conflicting hints, Cinemachine will make an arbitrary choice.

Methods

ForceCameraPosition(Vector3, Quaternion)

Force the virtual camera to assume a given position and orientation.
Procedural placement then takes over

Parameters
Type Name Description
Vector3 pos

Worldspace position to take
Quaternion rot

Worldspace orientation to take
Overrides

GetLocalPositionForCameraFromInput(float)

Returns the local position of the camera along the spline used to connect the three camera rigs. Does not take into account the current heading of the camera (or its target)

Declaration
public Vector3 GetLocalPositionForCameraFromInput(float t)
Parameters
Type Name Description
float t

The t-value for the camera on its spline. Internally clamped to the value [0,1]
Returns
Type Description
Vector3

The local offset (back + up) of the camera WRT its target based on the supplied t-value

GetRig(int)

Get a child rig

Declaration
public CinemachineVirtualCamera GetRig(int i)
Parameters
Type Name Description
int i

Rig index. Can be 0, 1, or 2
Returns
Type Description
CinemachineVirtualCamera

The rig, or null if index is bad.

InternalUpdateCameraState(Vector3, float)

Internal use only. Called by CinemachineCore at designated update time so the vcam can position itself and track its targets. All 3 child rigs are updated, and a blend calculated, depending on the value of the Y axis.

Declaration
public override void InternalUpdateCameraState(Vector3 worldUp, float deltaTime)
Parameters
Type Name Description
Vector3 worldUp

Default world Up, set by the CinemachineBrain
float deltaTime

Delta time for time-based effects (ignore if less than 0)
Overrides

IsLiveChild(ICinemachineCamera, bool)

Check whether the vcam a live child of this camera. Returns true if the child is currently contributing actively to the camera state.

Declaration
public bool IsLiveChild(ICinemachineCamera vcam, bool dominantChildOnly = false)
Parameters
Type Name Description
ICinemachineCamera vcam

The Virtual Camera to check
bool dominantChildOnly

If truw, will only return true if this vcam is the dominant live child
Returns
Type Description
bool

True if the vcam is currently actively influencing the state of this vcam

OnDestroy()

Makes sure that the child rigs get destroyed in an undo-firndly manner. Invalidates the rig cache.

Declaration
protected override void OnDestroy()
Overrides

OnEnable()

Updates the child rig cache

Declaration
protected override void OnEnable()
Overrides

OnTargetObjectWarped(Transform, Vector3)

This is called to notify the vcam that a target got warped, so that the vcam can update its internal state to make the camera also warp seamlessly.

Declaration
public override void OnTargetObjectWarped(Transform target, Vector3 positionDelta)
Parameters
Type Name Description
Transform target

The object that was warped
Vector3 positionDelta

The amount the target's position changed
Overrides

OnTransitionFromCamera(ICinemachineCamera, Vector3, float)

If we are transitioning from another FreeLook, grab the axis values from it.

Declaration
public override void OnTransitionFromCamera(ICinemachineCamera fromCam, Vector3 worldUp, float deltaTime)
Parameters
Type Name Description
ICinemachineCamera fromCam

The camera being deactivated. May be null.
Vector3 worldUp

Default world Up, set by the CinemachineBrain
float deltaTime

Delta time for time-based effects (ignore if less than or equal to 0)
Overrides

PerformLegacyUpgrade(int)

Override this to handle any upgrades necessitated by a streaming version change. Note that since this method is not called from the main thread, there are many things it cannot do, including checking a unity object for null.

Declaration
protected override void PerformLegacyUpgrade(int streamedVersion)
Parameters
Type Name Description
int streamedVersion

The version that was streamed
