There really should be something in Roblox where objects and GUI elements can project a camera's current view via render targets. Basically, think of it like Portal. Portals in that game project a camera view through the portal, with the camera pinpoint looking ahead of the second portal. You could also think of it like a TV, or a surveillance system. (I hope I spelled that right) Although since Roblox's engine is probably incapable of rendering things the way portals in Portal do, nonetheless, something as simple as a decal rendering a camera view would do just fine. Same goes for the GUI.

ok I see what he's trying to say, it is possible to recreate the script it in a complicated and inefficient way but there is simply no way to do exactly what he's talking about... say you have a decal on a wall, and you want it to display a constant feed image of a portion of the game which would have a set camera position to do so from, I'd like to see someone script that exactly
