Don't put the below code in Update put it in FixedUpdate, else you can get unexpected speed variations.

 #pragma strict

  private var timer : float = 0.0;
  public var bobbingSpeed : float = 0.18;
  public var bobbingAmount : float = 0.2;
  public var midpoint : float = 2.0;
  private var waveslice : float;
  private var horizontal : float;
  private var vertical : float;
  private var totalAxes : float;
  private var translateChange : float;
 
  function Update () {
     waveslice = 0.0;
     horizontal = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
     vertical = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");
     if (Mathf.Abs(horizontal) == 0 && Mathf.Abs(vertical) == 0) {
        timer = 0.0;
     }
     else {
        waveslice = Mathf.Sin(timer);
        timer = timer + bobbingSpeed;
        if (timer > Mathf.PI * 2) {
           timer = timer - (Mathf.PI * 2);
        }
     }
     if (waveslice != 0) {
        translateChange = waveslice * bobbingAmount;
        totalAxes = Mathf.Abs(horizontal) + Mathf.Abs(vertical);
        totalAxes = Mathf.Clamp (totalAxes, 0.0, 1.0);
        translateChange = totalAxes * translateChange;
        transform.localPosition.y = midpoint + translateChange;
     }
     else {
        transform.localPosition.y = midpoint;
     }
  }

I have attached the script to my weapon (It's a group of 2 objects {I think it's called a parent?}), but now it just dissapears. Any Ideas why? I have also attached the script to the 2 childs individually.

For those who would rather a c# solution here's a working conversion: http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/283086/headbobber-script-in-c.html

@Planet$$anonymous$$aner if your weapon 'disappears' it's probably because its position is off camera, i.e. the midpoint variable is too large. $$anonymous$$ake this and the bobbingSpeed and bobbingAmount variables public and you can tweaks things during runtime. With my model I found that the midpoint offset could stay at zero.
