I have yet to review the cinematic options for 3D gameplay. I think the best way to achieve this is to make your own custom camera animation and use the prefab option.
I tried but it's not working neither, the camera does not follow the character.

I know you are busy with the work on UFE 3, but will an improvement of the 3D mode come in the near future (this year)? Multiple things are not working as they should, throwing a character from behind or its side, gives a weird result. Projectiles are not always at their right position depending on which side you are. We cannot apply lateral forces to the opponent on hit and the AI does not have an option to move sideways.
