Frequently Asked Questions

This section covers common issues and operational questions related to Freecam Classic.

Freecam does not activate​

Check the following:

  1. Is the activation method configured correctly?

    • Config.System.action.command
    • Config.System.action.key
    • Config.System.action.hold

  2. Is Freecam already active?

    • Attempting to activate while active will be blocked.

  3. Are system checks enabled?

    • Config.System.checks.dead
    • Config.System.checks.vehicle

  4. Is your custom override logic blocking activation?

I receive a dead check error​

If Config.System.checks.dead = true, the player must pass the life-state validation.

Solutions:

  • Disable the dead check.
  • Adjust your DeadCheck override logic.

I receive a vehicle restriction error​

If Config.System.checks.vehicle = true, the system will validate vehicle state before activation.

Solutions:

  • Disable the vehicle check.
  • Modify your VehicleCheck override logic.

Freecam activates but camera does not move​

Possible reasons:

  • Movement multipliers are set too low.
  • Distance limit is restricting movement.
  • Control mapping is not correctly configured.
  • Input system is blocked by another resource.

Verify:

  • Config.System.values.distance
  • Config.System.multipliers.move

Zoom is not working properly​

Check:

  • Config.System.values.zoom.min
  • Config.System.values.zoom.max
  • Config.System.multipliers.zoom

If minimum and maximum values are too close, zoom range will feel restricted.

Camera resets every time​

Check:

Config.System.reset = true

If enabled, camera settings reset on every activation.

Set to false to preserve previous session data.

Exports are not working​

Ensure:

Config.Exports.openFreecam  = true
Config.Exports.closeFreecam = true
Config.Exports.getData      = true

Exports must be explicitly enabled.

Events are not triggering​

Verify:

Config.Events.ClientSide.system = {
    onStart = true,
    onClose = true
}

If values are false, no events will be triggered.

Why does Classic not include a UI?​

Freecam Classic is intentionally lightweight.

It is designed for:

  • Stability
  • Administrative usage
  • Minimal overhead

For UI-driven control and cinematic features, refer to the Advanced edition.
