point_flesh_effect_target

point_flesh_effect_target is a point entity available in Half-Life 2: Episode Two.

Entity description

Used to create flesh interior effects - i.e. seeing under the skin - in conjunction with the $flesh shader parameter. Ep2's Alyx model is already set up to work with it. In Episode 2 this entity is parented to a Vortigaunts claws with "SetParentAttachment".

Note:Only a maximum of four of these entities should exist in a map at any time, as the FleshInterior proxy does not support more than four flesh effect targets.
