3DCharacterCam — Third-Person Camera Behavior for Construct 3
Turn any top-down Construct 3 prototype into a third-person 3D action game in minutes.
One of the toughest challenges in making a good gameplay camera is handling collisions. 3DCharacterCam gives you a ready-to-use third-person 3D camera for Construct 3 that works out of the box, keeps your player visible, readable, and responsive, and helps you avoid the usual camera headaches.
With just two events, you can transform a top-down prototype into a third-person 3D action game setup.
What makes it different:
- Easy setup: turn a top-down game into a third-person 3D experience in just two events.
- Collision-aware camera: the camera respects solid objects and will not clip through floors or walls. Mark camera-blocking objects with tags and it will handle them automatically.
- Built-in raycasting support: shoot, interact, or target objects from the center of the screen and get X / Y / Z hit positions or the UID of the hit object.
- Anti-jiggle system: protection against camera shaking and micro-stutter while the player moves.
- Designed for real gameplay: smooth follow behavior, clear framing, and practical third-person camera logic for actual game projects.
How it works:
1. Add the plugin.
2. Connect the camera to your character.
3. Assign solid objects by tag.
4. Start moving like a third-person action game.
Active development:
This project will continue to receive updates, improvements, and quality-of-life upgrades.
