I'm not sure if I'm being a complete idiot, but I'm still learning the new cameras system. I've created a room and the camera works fine, doing everything I want it to, but then I add a new layer to the room and then I can't see any objects. I know they exist, since I can see them drawing...

While playing around with stuff, I made the camera follow the player. It worked, till suddenly the player is not in the center anymore. It is a few pixels to the right and I have tried everything I could think of, with no prevail. I am completely new to this so I don't know if I missing...

For some reason my camera wont shake, when I press H the screen should shake, but instead it stays still like normal. Here is the step event /// Follow the player if (instance_exists(oPlayer)) { var xTo = (oPlayer.x - x) / 25; var yTo = ((oPlayer.y - 16) - y) / 25; } x += xTo; y += yTo...

Hello everyone. I am making a platformer game and I want the player to be able to look up or down while holding the up or down key for a few seconds. I haven't done much with alarms, so I don't totally understand them. I have the camera movements working, but I'm not sure how to implement an...

Can no longer save, change, then re-apply camera view and projection matrix. If I try to, 1: Save my current 3D camera matrices. 2: Set my camera to use new 2D matrices for temporary drawing. 3: Reset back to the saved (3D matrices. The 3D camera seems to be upside down. Before the update...
