How to make a 3rd Person Shooter in Unity | Cinemachine & Input System

Build your own 3rd person shooter controller in Unity with the new Input System and Cinemachine from scratch. I’ll show you how to move your character with an Input Action Asset, the PlayerInput component, and the Character Controller component. ᐅGet the full Source Code Bundle to my Unity Tutorials 🤓 https://sam-yam.itch.io/samyam-full-source-code-to-all-videos The player will have two Cinemachine Virtual Cameras (vcam), and when the user aims down it will switch from the third person view to the more zoomed in third person view, and vice versa. This will use the new input system thus we will use the Cinemachine Input Provider to override the old input system values. I’ll also show you how to add mild perlin noise to the cinemachine camera to add a nice sway effect. Additionally, we will use the Cinemachine Collider extension to have the camera avoid crashing with the walls in an awkward way. For aiming, we will use Kenney’s Crosshair Pack, linked below, to add a reticle to the center of the screen on our canvas. There will be a vcam switching script to switch between the different vcams and activate the corresponding reticles. Our bullet is shot out of the barrel of the gun with a raycast, and if the bullet hits the environment it will spawn a decal with the correct orientation normal to the hit point. This is a long video but I hope you all enjoy and learn a lot! In the next video I will be going over adding animations to our player, and (if not the next, the next next) then use the animation rigging package to have the upper body aim up when the player aims up. 🔫 ► 📥 Here is the Source Code for this video!!! 📥 https://www.patreon.com/posts/52054165 ►Adding Animations | Blend Trees, Layers, & Animation Rigging - 3rd Person Shooter - Unity Tutorial https://youtu.be/583R9LgRZPA ►Character Controller Move Script 🚶 https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/CharacterController.Move.html ►Kenney Crosshair Pack 🔫 https://www.kenney.nl/assets/crosshair-pack ►Bullet Hole Decal 🚅 https://opengameart.org/content/bullet-decal ►Stephen Ward helped edit this video!
