Enables developers to programmatically control and monitor the player's camera in Decentraland scenes, enabling cinematic views, mode switching, and region-based controls.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • CameraMode detection for first-person and third-person views
  • CameraModeArea to force a specific mode inside a region
  • VirtualCamera for scripted cameras with transitions and look-at targeting
  • MainCamera switching to activate/deactivate virtual cameras
  • Guidance on camera vs collider behavior to prevent clipping

Quick Start

Install the camera-control skill and start implementing cinematic camera behavior in your scene.

Frequently Asked Questions about camera-control

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I control the cinematic camera in a Decentraland scene?▼

To force a specific camera mode inside a region of your Decentraland scene, use CameraModeArea to automatically switch the player's view to first-person or third-person when they enter that defined spatial zone.

How do I detect if a player is in first-person or third-person mode in Decentraland?▼

You can detect first-person or third-person mode by accessing the exposed camera state, which allows you to monitor and programmatically react to the active CameraMode behavior in real-time.

How do I switch the active camera to a virtual camera in Decentraland?▼

To switch the active camera, use the MainCamera interface to activate or deactivate your configured VirtualCamera, enabling seamless transitions between scripted cinematic views and default player controls.

How do I prevent camera clipping through objects in Decentraland scenes?▼

To prevent camera clipping, follow the guidance on camera versus collider behavior to ensure your virtual cameras and scene colliders interact correctly without passing through solid geometry.

Can I script camera transitions and look-at targeting for Decentraland scenes?▼

Yes, you can script camera transitions and look-at targeting by creating a VirtualCamera, which allows you to define cinematic paths and focal points that dynamically frame your scene.
