Is there a way to make point_camera track an entity, like point_viewcontrol is able to?
Is there a way to make point_camera track an entity, like point_viewcontrol is able to?
Yes, it's possible. I've managed to do this by parenting the camera to a func_tank, which can track entities via the ''SetTargetEntityName'' input. You can track players by using a trigger and setting the parameter override of ''SetTargetEntityName'' to ''!activator''  --[[User:Pandaboy|Pandaboy]] 19:00, 24 August 2013 (PDT)

I can't find this entity when i use hammer is there a special place i need to look?

If your trying this in CS:S you need a custom FGD. --wisemx 16:04, 25 Aug 2005 (PDT)

I've heard that this doesn't work in TF2, and it doesn't appear to work in L4D... so where DOES it work? --Santasassassin 19:52, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

Portal. Also, just because the entity isn't in the list doesn't mean it doesn't work. --Anotheruser67 19:00, 16 March 2012 (PDT)
