List of material proxies

Main article:  Material proxies

All material proxies usable in materials at all games can be found here, along with proxies only present in specific games. (Mostly other Valve titles)

Todo: There are still lots of undocumented proxies / proxies lacking enough documentation!

Important:Unlike material variables, material proxy names are case sensitive.

Calculation

Note:Operations involving integers of all these proxies will be converted to a float result value, except for Equals and Clamp.

Add Adds two variables.

srcVar1

srcVar2

resultVar

Returns srcVar1 + srcVar2.

Multiply Multiplies two variables.

srcVar1

srcVar2

resultVar

Returns srcVar1 * srcVar2.

Subtract Subtracts the second variable from the first.

srcVar1

srcVar2

resultVar

Returns srcVar1 - srcVar2.

Divide Divides the first variable by the second.

srcVar1

srcVar2

resultVar

Returns srcVar1 / srcVar2.

Equals Copies the value of a variable to another.

srcVar1

resultVar

Returns srcVar1.

Abs Computes the absolute (i.e. unsigned) value of a variable.

srcVar1

resultVar

Returns abs(srcVar1).

Frac

Returns the fractional component of a variable. For integer values, no change occurs.

Tip:frac(4.23) = .23

srcVar1

resultVar

Int

Returns the integer component of a variable.

Tip:int(4.23) = 4

srcVar1

resultVar

Clamp Keeps a variable within a specified range. srcVar1 and resultVar can be the same.

min

max

srcVar1

resultVar

Returns the value in the range [min, max] that is the closest to srcVar1.

LessOrEqual Compares the first value to the second.

lessEqualVar

greaterVar

srcVar1

srcVar2

resultVar

If srcVar1 ≤ srcVar2, returns lessEqualVar, otherwise greaterVar.

SelectFirstIfNonZero Selects the first value over the second if it is anything other than zero.

srcVar1

srcVar2

resultVar

If srcVar1 == 0, returns srcVar1, otherwise srcVar2.

WrapMinMax Constrains a value into a range, wrapping around if it exceeds it.

srcVar1

The value to constrain.

minVal

maxVal

Range to constrain the value to. If min is less than max, min is always returned.

resultVar

The variable to write the results to.

Exponential A value that changes at a faster and faster rate.

minVal

maxVal

Upper and lower value clamps.

srcVar1

offset

scale

resultVar

Returns scale * exp( srcVar1 + offset )

Tip:exp(n) = eⁿ

Number generation

Sine A sine wave.

sinemin

sinemax

Values at the top and bottom of the wave

timeoffset

Used to offset the starting position of the wave

resultVar

LinearRamp An ever-increasing float value.

rate

Units per second.

initialValue

Value at map start.

resultVar

Returns rate * time + initialValue.

Note:The value is not continuous as one might expect, i.e. if the rate is changed dynamically, it will not 'add' to the previous value.

CurrentTime The number of seconds the current map has been running on the server for.

resultVar

This is intended to set the $time shader variable, used by several shaders to adjust their effects over time.

UniformNoise A noisy signal where each value is equally likely to occur.

minVal

maxVal

resultVar

Returns an random value in the range [minVal, maxVal] with equal probability.

GaussianNoise A noisy signal where values are biased towards the average.

resultVar

MatrixRotate A rotation matrix from the provided axis and angle.

axisVar

Axis of rotation, in the format [x y z]

angle

Degrees of rotation around axis.

resultVar

The result of this is a transformation matrix, suitable to set $basetexturetransform and other similar variables.

Entity Data Access

These proxies read values from the entity the proxy is applied to.

Warning:Will cause a crash when used on prop_static, world brushes, infodecal, info_projecteddecal, or unnamed info_overlays. Named info_overlays are fine.

Alpha Copies the entity's renderamt value to the $alpha material parameter.

$alpha

The alpha material variable is set to the value of the entity's renderamt

Cycle Outputs the progress through the current animation of the entity.

start

The value to output at the start of the animation. This can't be a variable reference.

end

The value to output at the end of the animation. This can't be a variable reference.

easein

Apply easing to the beginning of the output. This can't be a variable reference.

easeout

Apply easing to the beginning of the output. This can't be a variable reference.

resultVar

The variable to store the result in.

PlayerProximity Outputs the distance in units between the local player and the origin of the entity that the material is applied to.

scale

A factor by which the result is multiplied.

resultVar

PlayerTeamMatch Returns 1 if the team of the entity the material is applied to matches that of the local player. Used in TF2 for func_respawnroomvisualizer.

resultVar

This value is 1 if the local player is on the same team and 0 if the local player is not.

PlayerView The dot product of the player's view angle and the relative origin of the material's entity.

scale

The value is rescaled to be between 0 and the scale value.

resultVar

PlayerSpeed Speed of the local player.

scale

The value is multiplied by this value. This factor defaults to 0.005.

resultVar

PlayerPosition The local player's position.

scale

The value is multiplied by this value. This factor defaults to 0.005.

resultVar

Set to the vector position.

EntitySpeed The material's entity's speed.

resultVar

The current speed of this entity, in units per second.

EntityOrigin The material's entity's origin. The variable set cannot be changed.

$entityorigin

Set to the origin of the entity.

EntityRandom A static random number associated with the entity the material is applied to. Helpful for staggering effects that appear on multiple objects.

scale

The value is rescaled to be between 0 and the scale value.

resultVar

Bug:Entities using this in will cause a crash the moment that they move through a portal.

Health The material's entity's health (0-1).

scale

The value is rescaled to be between 0 and the scale value.

resultVar

Bug:Does not work in most games. The game maintains a cache of unique keys in KeyValues case-insensitive, while material proxies are internally a case-sensitive lookup. This causes the lookup to fail as a KeyValues file with a lowercase health key defined is parsed (e.g. propdata.txt) before the material. This can be workarounded by adding an uppercase Health key into gameinfo.txt or defining the material proxy lowercase in the client code.

IsNPC Returns whether the material is applied to a NPC. Used in HL2 for npc_hunter's eye glow, which is supposed to stay off on ragdolls.

scale

The value to return when the material is applied to a NPC. Despite the name, nothing in this process is actually multiplied. (although this must be a float)

resultVar

If the material is applied to a NPC, this value is equal to scale. Otherwise, this value stays at 0.

WorldDims The dimensions of the world entity. The variables set cannot be changed.

$world_mins

Set to the minimum X/Y/Z coordinates.

$world_maxs

Set to the maximum X/Y/Z coodinates.

CrosshairColor The color of the local player's crosshair. cl_crosshaircolor_(r, g, b)

resultVar

Returns [r g b] with values from 0 to 1.

Texture manipulation

AnimatedTexture Increments the current frame of an animated VTF.

animatedTextureVar

Texture to increment frame for.

( i.e. $basetexture, $bumpmap, $normalmap, $envmapmask, $detail)

animatedTextureFrameNumVar

Frame variable to increment.

( i.e. $frame, $bumpframe, $envmapmaskframe, $detailframe)

animatedTextureFrameRate

Framerate in frames per second. Fixed; cannot be changed once set.

animatedTextureVar

animatedTextureFrameNumVar

animatedTextureFrameRate

animationNoWrap

AnimatedOffsetTexture Identical to AnimatedTexture, except the animation begins when the entity it's applied to spawns.

animatedTextureVar

animatedTextureFrameNumVar

animatedTextureFrameRate

animationNoWrap

AnimateSpecificTexture Identical to AnimatedTexture, except only the specified texture could be animated.

animatedTextureVar

animatedTextureFrameNumVar

animatedTextureFrameRate

animationNoWrap

onlyAnimateOnTexture

The full path for the texture that this proxy should function with.

Todo: What is this used for? None out of around 40 thousand official Valve .vmt files use this proxy

Pupil Used for character's eyes, computes the light brightness at the material's position and reacts to bright lights by incrementing the texture's frame.

TextureVar

Texture to increment frame for.

TextureFrameNumVar

Frame variable to increment.

PupilCloseRate

The maximum speed the pupil can close, in fractions/second. The default is 0.1.

PupilOpenRate

The maximum speed the pupil can open, in fractions/second. The default is 0.03.

$lighting

This material variable is used to store the previous frame, and should be set to 0.5 in the material. It will be set to the average light value, from 0-1.

TextureTransform Generates a texture transform matrix for use with $basetexturetransform etc.

centerVar

scaleVar

rotateVar

translateVar

Optional input variables for the matrix. Each one can be a float or a 2D vector.

resultVar

TextureScroll Returns a transform matrix or vector that will translate a texture at a given angle at a given rate.

textureScrollVar

Destination for the resulting transformation.

textureScrollRate

Rate of scroll in units per second.

textureScrollAngle

Angle of rotation to move along. (90 = up, 180 = left, etc)

textureScale

Scale of the texture; defaults to 1.0 if unspecified. Works similarly to the TextureTransform proxy's scaleVar and $basetexturetransform's scale component (e.g., 2.0 is a 50% scale). Unlike those, however, textureScale only accepts a single float—not a 2D vector—so this proxy can't scale a texture's X and Y axes individually.

LampBeam Modulates the material's alpha value based on angle between the beam's direction and the viewer's eye point. This is used to make the beams of volumetric light on lights fade as you look at them dead on. Must be attached to entity for angle use.

LampHalo Modulates the material's alpha value based on angle between the beam's direction and the viewer's eye point. Like the LampBeam proxy, but used for the halo at the beam's base. Must be attached to entity for angle use.

Entity integration

MaterialModify / MaterialModifyAnimated

Used in conjunction with the material_modify_control entity to configure arbitrary parameters from map I/O. Only works when the material is applied to an entity. MaterialModify takes no parameters. MaterialModifyAnimated takes the same parameters as AnimatedTexture.

Note:Searches for material_modify_control among children of an entity a material with this proxy is rendered on and then applies its effects.

WaterLOD

Coordinates water LOD values between the map's water_lod_control entity and the material's internal values.

Warning:Both of the parameters MUST be defined in the VMT or the proxy will fail.

$CHEAPWATERSTARTDISTANCE

Start distance for cheap water

Note:must be set outside of proxy block.

$CHEAPWATERENDDISTANCE

End distance for cheap water

Note:must be set outside of proxy block.

BreakableSurface Sets the base texture to a material name held by the entity (used for switching surface material on shatter). Must be attached to a func_breakable_surf entity.

ConveyorScroll Returns the scroll parameters for a texture used as a conveyor, so it matches the entity's settings. Must be attached to func_conveyor entity.

textureScrollVar

Name of variable to place result in. Must be a matrix or vector type variable (i.e. $baseTextureOffset).

Camo Only used by material Dev\dev_camo.vmt. This generates a texture matching the surroundings, which appears to be intended to be used for Combine Elite at some point. Much of the code is disabled, so this is not usable.

$camopatterntexture

The source texture for the camo effect. Should be I8 format.

$camoboundingboxmin

$camoboundingboxmax

Random points within this bounding box will be sampled to determine the camo coloring.

FleshInterior Outputs the locations of nearby point_flesh_effect_targets for use by the $flesh effect.

$FleshEffectCenterRadius1

$FleshEffectCenterRadius2

$FleshEffectCenterRadius3

$FleshEffectCenterRadius4

Set to the world locations of four flesh targets, with the fourth axis set to the radius. If a target is not present, all four axes are set to zero.

$FleshGlobalOpacity

This material variable has to exist for the proxy to function, but it's not actually set at any point.

$FleshSubsurfaceTint

This is just set to [0 0 0 0].

HeliBlade Controls transition on npc_helicopter's blades. This fades in or out the blades to convert from a set of physical blades into a spinning blurred circle.

$fadeout

If the variable is set to 1, fade out the blades as it starts up. If 0, fade in.

$alpha

This proxy sets the value of the alpha variable.

ParticleSphereProxy Only used by material particle\SmokeStack.vmt. Seems to be defined in particle_proxies.cpp. Valve remark: "FIXME: Is this even needed any more?"

PlayerLogo Internal proxy for "decals/playerlogo##" decals. Generates and assigns a texture for a specific player index.

Shadow Only used by Shadow. No known parameters. This sets lots of material parameters to render projected texture shadows.

ShadowModel Only used by ShadowModel. No known parameters. This sets lots of material parameters for rendering projected texture shadows.

Thermal Uses $color vectors and work around $ThermalPeriod, $ThermalMin, and $ThermalMax to generate a Hue scaled Sine and applies back to $color.

$color

Uses $color as ThermalVar internal reference and proxie output.

$ThermalPeriod

Duration to be curl from game's Current Time. Default: 1.0.

$ThermalMin

$ThermalMax

Min/Max values to multiply over sine's by product while prevent go lower than $ThermalMin

ToggleTexture Toggles a texture based on the frame number set by game code (in most games, only via env_texturetoggle). Must be attached to an entity.

toggleTextureVar

Texture to modify based on frames.

toggleTextureFrameNumVar

Variable used for frame number.

toggleShouldWrap

Whether the animation should wrap over not. Enabled by default.

Confirm:Disabling wrapping probably doesn't work correctly if env_texturetoggle's IncrementTextureIndex input is called 256 times due to  integer overflow.

Utility

Empty Used to comment out proxies. Surround a bunch of proxies with the empty proxy to cause those proxies to not operate.

Dummy Prints developer messages in response to the proxy being created, the proxy being initialized, the proxy being bound to an entity, and the proxy being removed.

Miscellaneous

(in all games since )

ConVar Allows you to link a specific variable to a ConVar a client has set.

convar

The ConVar name to link to, e.g. mat_specular.

Note:Strings will not be parsed through, the value of the ConVar must be a number.

resultVar

Returns the value of the ConVar. If this is a vector type, all axes will be set individually to the ConVar's value.

Todo: What parameter does the portal shot flash set?

WheatlyEyeGlow

Presumably controls the glow effect on Wheatley. Not actually used.

Todo: Does this do anything? Seems to have been replaced by Lightedmouth.

Lightedmouth Used on the various Personality Cores and PoTaTOS to blink their eye-light in sync with their choreo scenes. When idle, the tint is still partially lit. On the viewmodel, it can also be manually controlled via VScript to make GLaDOS appear to shut down.

resultVar

A tint to pass to $selfillumtint.

LightedFloorButton Used on the clean Super Button materials, sets $selfillumtint to 1 if the material is being used on a prop_floor_button, otherwise sets it to 0. This has no real benefit and just causes the model to appear incorrectly when used on other entities, it was presumably a beta leftover.
