"Zoom" camera

[majqq 170]

Hey, how can i zoom camera, without moving it?

local x, y, z, lx, ly, lz = getCameraMatrix()
smoothCameraMove(x, y, z, lx, ly, lz, x, y, z, lx, ly, lz - 0.5, 2100)

Maybe a simple answer, but couldn't make it.

Hey, thanks.

One more question related with camera, how can i get lookX, lookY, lookZ (i need same or similar result to setCameraTarget(getLocalPlayer())). Shortly, behind player back, no matters where's looking at.

Is that what you mean?

function getPointFromDistanceRotation(x, y, dist, angle)
    local a = math.rad(90 - angle);
    local dx = math.cos(a) * dist;
    local dy = math.sin(a) * dist;
    return x+dx, y+dy;
end

function getElementBackPosition(element)
	local x, y, z = getElementPosition(element)
	local _, _, rot = getElementRotation(element)
	local x, y = getPointFromDistanceRotation(x, y, 0.5, -rot + 180)
	return x, y, z
end

Yes, probably something like this, however, i don't know if am using it wrong, because still it doesn't give me same result like:

setCameraTarget(getLocalPlayer())

does, so lookAtX, lookAtY, lookAtZ still depends from where player looks.

I think Matrix:getForward() with processLineOfSight should do the purpose
