Please help me, I’ve tried a lot of camera scripts and none of them worked ;-;

Camera.CameraSubject might be what you are looking for.

Set the value to the Humanoid of the NPC to focus the camera on the NPC.

like this?

local Character = script.Parent
local Npc = game.Workspace.Npc
local Camera = game.StarterPlayer.CameraMode

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(Key, Chatted)
	if Chatted then
		return
	end

	if Key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.E then
		local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
		Player.Character = Npc
		Camera.CameraSubject = Npc
end
end)

Definitely not looking up what CameraSubject is

Try changing the Camera.CameraSubject = npc to:

Camera.CameraSubject = Npc.Humanoid

Also use the workspace.CurrentCamera when defining your Camera, I don’t think you can do it like that?

Each camera has it’s own CFrame. In most cases, or at least how much I’ve seen, modifying the local player’s camera CFrame will do the trick.

It’s best for you to do some research on this yourself, but overall what you need to know is:

  • What are CFrames?
  • How can you modify a Camera’s CFrame? (Hint: CameraType)
  • And the optional part: how to smoothly animate the transition a.k.a Tweens
