[C#][Animator][Solved] Camera switching function fails to work (code included)

[Fallenleader]

I finally figured out how to make my camera dynamic during battle scenes using the animator.

From what I understand, having a function attached to the camera, and calling it using a trigger in the animation, is supposed to run that function,

I made 2 cameras.
One is called MainCamera.
The second is SecondCamera.

I created this script for switching the main camera to the second one:

using UnityEngine;
using UnityEditor;
using System.Collections;

public class CamSwitch1 : MonoBehaviour
{
	public Camera cam1;
	public Camera cam2;
	
	// Use this for initialization
	void Switch ()
	{
		
		cam1.enabled = false;
		cam2.enabled = true;
	}

	void Switchback ()
	{
		
		cam1.enabled = true;
		cam2.enabled = false;
	}

}

Camera switches fine, except camera 2 shows nothing but black, and plays no animation (thus cant call the switch to main).

What am I doing wrong? I want different cameras for different animations, and eventually want to code in a camera that is in a certain position when events (e.g. attack) are selected, but I cannot even switch to a second camera or animation.

Is your SecondCamera gameobject active? The “enabled” property turns on and off a component (the “Camera” component in this example), not the actual game object. If SecondCamera is not active then turning on the Camera component won’t do anything.

Try this:

 using UnityEngine;
 using UnityEditor;
 using System.Collections;
 
 public class CamSwitch1 : MonoBehaviour
 {
     public GameObject cam1;
     public GameObject cam2;
     
     // Use this for initialization
     void Switch ()
     {
         
         cam1.SetActive(false);
         cam2.SetActive(true);
     }
 
     void Switchback ()
     {
         
         cam1.SetActive(true);
         cam2.SetActive(false);
     }
 
 }

Also, I’d set the MainCamera tag for the current active camera so Camera.main keeps working.
