First Person Camera in Unity

In this short video we will learn how to make a First Person Camera inside Unity. It is a very simple but effective Camera Script. It rotates the Camera around its local X-axis. On the Y-axis we gonna Rotate the Camera and the Player together so the player faces the direction the Camera is facing. If you have any questions or get some trouble making FPS camera feel free to ask in the comments section below.

For you lazy folks here is the script ^.^ :

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class FirstPersonCamera : MonoBehaviour
{

// Variables
public Transform player;
public float mouseSensitivity = 2f;
float cameraVerticalRotation = 0f;

bool lockedCursor = true;


void Start()
{
// Lock and Hide the Cursor
Cursor.visible = false;
Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.Locked;

}


void Update()
{
// Collect Mouse Input

float inputX = Input.GetAxis("Mouse X")*mouseSensitivity;
float inputY = Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y")*mouseSensitivity;

// Rotate the Camera around its local X axis

cameraVerticalRotation -= inputY;
cameraVerticalRotation = Mathf.Clamp(cameraVerticalRotation, -90f, 90f);
transform.localEulerAngles = Vector3.right * cameraVerticalRotation;


// Rotate the Player Object and the Camera around its Y axis

player.Rotate(Vector3.up * inputX);

}
}

NOTE: For this script to work you need to have the same name of the script in the Unity editor. This script goes to the Main Camera that is a child of the Player Object. And you reference the Player Object at the player Transform slot inside the Unity Editor.
