I've run into a problem. So I've got a character that I intend to use in an FPS, I've already done the animations for the mesh (like walking and jumping), and I tried to animate the camera to add some realism to the animations. But whenever I add a keyframe to the camera's position and rotation, and move the timeline slider my mesh gets deformed. screenshot 2

This is what happens when I move the slider. The keyframe for the camera is on the first frame. The deformation is quite severe, and I still don't know how to fix it.

This is how it should look like: working example

I've tried joining the mesh and the camera, parenting them, giving a bone to the camera, and adding a keyframe for all the options when you press I, but all these solutions don't work.

I would really appreciate a solution that can help me animate the camera on top of the animations that I already have without deforming the mesh as to not make matters more complicated.

Thank You!

This is the blend file

  • $\begingroup$ I've added a screenshot from your blend file to your question. I've keyframed the location and rotation, moved and rotated it, played the animation, and scrubbed the timeline. But I cannot see any deformations. Blender 2.93. Can you add a screenshot? $\endgroup$

The screen-shot is above. The deformation is quite severe, and I still don't know how to fix it.
