Question by Zakkary19 · Jan 19, 2016 at 08:20 AM · c#unity 5networkingcamera rotatecamera-look

uNet FPS Camera Error [C#] [Unity 5]

I am working on getting uNet setup for my game and I am running into an error when disabling the Main Camera and switching to the Player Camera. I am using the default FPSController. I have a script that should disable the Main Camera upon start the Local Server. This does work. And you can have 2 clients see each other at once, but you are unable to rotate the camera as the player. The mouse does not even disappear while playing. Something is wrong and I have no clue what it is.

Thanks for any help in advance!

I am following this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NLnzlwCRjgc

I am getting these errors:

1. NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object UnityStandardAssets.Characters.FirstPerson.FirstPersonController.Start () (at Assets/Standard Assets/Characters/FirstPersonCharacter/Scripts/FirstPersonController.cs:50)

2.

Here is my script:

PlayerNetworkSetup.cs

 using UnityEngine;
 using UnityEngine.Networking;
 
 public class PlayerNetworkSetup : NetworkBehaviour {
 
 
     [SerializeField]Camera cam;
     [SerializeField]AudioListener audioListener;
 
     void Start()                                                    
     {                                                                
         if (isLocalPlayer)                                         
         {                                                            
             GameObject.Find("Scene Camera").SetActive(false);
             GetComponent<CharacterController>().enabled = true;
             GetComponent<UnityStandardAssets.Characters.FirstPerson.FirstPersonController>().enabled = true;
             cam.enabled = true;
             audioListener.enabled = true;
         }
     }
 }

I did modify the FirstPersonController slightly, but nothing that had to to with mouse movements...

@Zakkary19, i too am having these exact errors, been looking for an answear for 5 - 6 hours for my spacegame, im using the photon service ins$$anonymous$$d but, the errors are the same, i think it has to do with the main camera being disabled when the fps controller script tries to acess it causing it to return null. please anyone tell me if you got an answear because i cant find a way to make it start the script later so that the camera is on or whatever the problem is... and i need to give a copy to someone thats on vacation here, he leaves friday, goddamn unity, not writing good and descriptive error messages.

NullReference = The Camera is NOT being assigned.

Have it be because your isLocalPlayer is not coming as true, or the camera name it's looking for is wrong.

Hello @Zakkary19 . I Just had this issue myself and stumbled across the answer for myself. Here is what I think that you should do: 1) In your --PlayerNetworkSetup.cs--, under --void Start()--, get rid of all the code that disables the camera entirely. 2) In your --FirstPersonController.cs--, Right after line 63, add the following code. It worked for me.


       if (!isLocalPlayer)
       {
                 m_Camera.enabled = false;
                 return;
       }
       m_Camera.enabled = true;

This will fix the error, but do note that there will be more problems.
