I need to know how I would go about locking the mouse's position at 0,0 in a scriptable cameratype, like this game here: http://www.roblox.com/3rd-Person-Testing-place?id=165633808 I tried manually setting the X and Y values, but it won't let me change them.

There's a trick to it. First set the CameraMode property in the player to LockFirstPerson, then go to the CurrentCamera and change the CameraType to Track or any other type except scriptable or custom. Then change the CameraOffset or whatever the property is called in the Humanoid to whatever you want. Make sure to use a LocalScript inside of the player somewhere, like backpack or playergui. Example: I made a localscript in the starterpack cam = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera player = game.Players.LocalPlayer repeat wait() until player:GetMouse() cam.CameraType = "Custom" player.CameraMode = "Classic" -- This fixes a glitch with LockFirstPerson wait() player.CameraMode = "LockFirstPerson" wait() cam.CameraType = "Track" player.Character.Humanoid.CameraOffset = Vector3.new(2,0,0) --Make sure to zoom out once you spawn.
