Return Value:
Nothing

Examples

Example 1:
Since Arma 3:private _pos1 = player modelToWorld [0, 5, 5]; private _pos2 = player modelToWorld [0, 50, 50]; private _cam = "camera" camCreate _pos1; _cam cameraEffect ["INTERNAL", "BACK"]; _cam camSetPos _pos2; _cam camSetDir (_pos2 vectorFromTo _pos1); _cam camCommit 5; waitUntil { camCommitted _cam }; _cam camSetPos _pos1; _cam camCommit 5;
Example 2:
Before Arma 3:private _pos1 = player modelToWorld [0, 5, 5]; private _pos2 = player modelToWorld [0, 50, 50]; private _cam = "camera" camCreate _pos1; _cam cameraEffect ["INTERNAL", "BACK"]; _cam camSetPos _pos2; _cam camSetDir 180; _cam camCommit 5; waitUntil { camCommitted _cam }; _cam camSetPos _pos1; _cam camCommit 5;
