It's with the old sideview code. Where you were changing AR code values to setup the camera how you wanted it. Still working on the new code.
Ah, understood now!
I was just worried you gave up

Thank you!
Anything that starts with a C is a gecko code, so camera blocker should be in gecko. If it's still not working, I can repost the codes I use for it.
Here's something more important to test. It may solve the slow left panning over the camera. Set the camera option to goalie. I still haven't prevented it from fully interfering with other camera stuff. Play with the AR values while all three of these codes are active. I think the first AR line is how far the camera can pan, as a negative. The second value may have to do with speed or something.

Awesome!
without AR surprise code, just these 3?
Yeah, see if it looks okay in general too. Also, I didn't update your zoom values, so zoom may need to be modified/updated.
ya, it looks nice, but I see it not zooming as you said.
Also it not pan left enough obviously.
But love how you already cleaned a lot of the cutscenes problems, good job!
Testing more..
it pans fine to both sides when using "parametric camera"
Not sure if you are aware of it?

unfortunately playing with the values in AR Goalie Cam Test does nothing on my side, even with extreme changes. Does it change anything on your system?
so I think the only real issue using this cam would be that spinning animation just after the puck drops at the beginning of each faceoff, what do you think? It should cut right from the cutscene to our new camera.
