{{wrongtitle|title=func_lod}} {{base_brush}} ==Entity Description== [[Entity#Brush_entities|Brush-built]] model that fades out over a specified distance. Useful for creating world detail that doesn't need to be drawn far away, for performance reasons. {{brushmodel}} {{Note|The fading is not always consistent; brushes may suddenly "pop" into view depending on where the player is looking. This happens because of a hardware issues with rendering translucent materials. Low-end cards will fade nearer than the distance specified, and smaller objects fade nearer than a larger object with the same fade distance.}} {{Note|The overhead required by this entity is substantial. Use it only for special effects or when fading very dense geometry, and one could then argue, shouldn't that better be a [[model]]?}} ==Keyvalues== * {{KV Targetname}} * {{KV RenderFields}} * {{KV Minlight}} * '''DisappearDist''' : <integer> Distance at which these brushes should fade out. * '''Solid''' : <choices> Set whether or not these brushes should collide with other entities. :{| class=standard-table !
