Topic: How do I disable default camera and use custom camera?

I have a custom camera I am trying to use. I have written this code but throws errors. I just need to disable the default camera for UFE 2 so that I can use my own. Here is the code I currently have:

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using FPLibrary;
using UFE3D;

public class CameraOverride : MonoBehaviour
{

    public Camera splitScreenCam;
    public Camera ufeCamera;

    void Start()

    {
        UFE.OnGameBegin += OnGameBegin;


    }


    void OnGameBegin(CharacterInfo player1, CharacterInfo player2, StageOptions stage)
    {
        if (player1 != null && player2 != null)


            ufeCamera.SetActive(false);

        splitScreenCam.SetActive(true);


    }



}

Here are the errors.

Assets/CameraOverride.cs(22,22): error CS0104: 'CharacterInfo' is an ambiguous reference between 'UFE3D.CharacterInfo' and 'UnityEngine.CharacterInfo'

Assets/CameraOverride.cs(22,45): error CS0104: 'CharacterInfo' is an ambiguous reference between 'UFE3D.CharacterInfo' and 'UnityEngine.CharacterInfo'

I get these errors now using this method.

Assets/CameraOverride.cs(16,9): error CS0123: No overload for 'OnGameBegin' matches delegate 'UFE.GameBeginHandler'

Assets/CameraOverride.cs(27,23): error CS1061: 'Camera' does not contain a definition for 'SetActive' and no accessible extension method 'SetActive' accepting a first argument of type 'Camera' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Assets/CameraOverride.cs(29,24): error CS1061: 'Camera' does not contain a definition for 'SetActive' and no accessible extension method 'SetActive' accepting a first argument of type 'Camera' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

You can't use SetActive on a camera Type.
You have to use enabled instead

public Camera test;
test.enabled = false;

Not sure whats going on with ongamebegin

Re: How do I disable default camera and use custom camera?

I am still having trouble with overriding the stock camera and using a custom camera. Is there anyone here that can assist with a script that overrides the current camera and makes the custom camera the main camera?

Re: How do I disable default camera and use custom camera?

I ended up writing this script for this case. I've tested it and it works.
Anyone can modify it to suit your needs.

using UnityEngine;

public class UFE_2CameraRequestForG_Darius : MonoBehaviour
{
    public Camera UFE_2Camera;

    public Camera splitScreenCamera;

    // Update is called once per frame
    void Update()
    {
        if (UFE.p1ControlsScript != null
            && UFE.p2ControlsScript != null)
        {
            UFE_2Camera.enabled = false;
            UFE_2Camera.tag = "Untagged";

            splitScreenCamera.enabled = true;
            splitScreenCamera.tag = "MainCamera";
        }
        else if (UFE.p1ControlsScript == null
            && UFE.p2ControlsScript == null)
        {
            UFE_2Camera.enabled = true;
            UFE_2Camera.tag = "MainCamera";

            splitScreenCamera.enabled = false;
            splitScreenCamera.tag = "Untagged";
        }
    }
}

Re: How do I disable default camera and use custom camera?

I'm doing something with the onGameBegin function and it still gives errors.
