It only works with props, not with characters, but you can simply link or attach a prop to the character and it should work. It would give you actually more flexibility.

Hello animagic,
Many thanks,
Yeah, I know that, but it would have been nice if it worked.

My favorite way to do this is use a spring prop that the camera looks at. Attach the prop to the root of the character, and do not inherit rotation.

@Rampa,
Thanks for your tip:):)

Does anyone have an idea how to make a camera follow a rotating and moving physics prop (like a ball)?

---

The camera will follow the positioning of the object but will not rotated with it (like parent constraint).  However you can use version 2.0 of the Smooth Camera Follow, and use the key reduction feature to easily manage and change the animation key-frames. For example: you can reduce the animation complexity to 20 keys in the timeline then go to the each key and configure the rotation/aim of the camera by moving the camera on that frame.

Hope this helps.

Hi Chuck! I thought too that it would only follow the position.
But in fact, it tries to rotate with the physics prop which gives weird results.
As i said, the ball is animated by physics only.
I bet it works with a regular animated prop.



PS: i already have the v2.0

Hi 3dtester,

Can you check if you have any other influence on the camera itself?  You can also try creating a new camera.
If this is not the problem, then can you send me your iClone project? Maybe use Google drive, Dropbox, etc. and send me a link via PM.

If this is problem with the iClone animation system or the script itself, then the team and I can look into it.

It's an odd thing.. I linked a prop to the head to follow from the same perspective and the camera does not generate frames from the direction the head and cam is facing. Anyone know what's happening here?

My new computer won't let me access rtf files or the read me files with this download. They want me to buy Word to use that feature. Seems like I've been through that before but for now , on installing the script.. 
Do I just need to load the python file or is there a need to do something with the follow ui.file ? The best I could find was to just load the python file but I thought I'd double check. 
I'm not sure what the UI file would be for.
