WHAT IS USCS:

If you ever dreamed for your own UE4/5 game project to get a AAA camera multi systems for your third person Scroller or Top Down game, this is the ultimate solution for any 2D/3D games that is working in few clicks with any kind of character or pawn. No need to set anything to possess the camera in game, the USCS automatically sets everything for you, even with the Lyra, UE5 Manny, or the ALS.v4 system (Uscs override directly the ALS/3rdPerson camera).

HOW IT WORKS:

USCS has 3 systems that interact with each other automatically:

“Ultimate Splines Camera System”: Allows you to set as many splines camera as you want in your level. The camera “travels” from one spline to another according to your transition settings (smooth/instant…).

“Ultimate Camera Switcher”: You can switch between TPS/FPS character cameras, Splines cameras, and Static Scene Cameras placed in the Level, all of that with or without time transition…

“Character Cameras Switcher”: You can switch between your TPS/FPS cameras and any other USCS system according to your transition setting (smooth/instant…).

Everything is possible, the camera can go from one spline to another, with or without multiple spline branches! You can also attach the system (spline or static cameras) to anything you want (a static mesh, a moving enemy, even your own character…), the camera will move to wherever you want always according to your transitions settings (smoothly/hardly/with special angle/rotation/speed…).

The system settings can be set universal for the entire Level, but always can be modified on every individual Spline/Scene Static cameras plaed in the Level. Like this, it is possible for example to start the level with a scrolling camera,to continue with a Third/First person game camera, and finish the level with a Top Down camera.

THE PRICE:

I know the price is very low considering the number of unique options of USCS, and the incoming future great features that are listed below. Buy it now before the price increases, this price is a real gift…
