render_animated_sprites
Renders animated sprites of varying orientations.
- animation rate
- Rate at which to animate particles (???).
- orientation_type
- Various orientation types:
- 0 - Billboarded (always face camera)
- 1 - Fix Z and rotate along X and Y
- 2 - Fix X and Y and rotate along Z (always face up)
- orientation_control_point
- This would let you use a cp to set orientation but it doesnt work at all in the orangebox version
render_rope
Renders all particles in the system into one continuous "rope", the smoothness can be adjusted by changing texel_size and subdivision_count. Killing particles will cause the rope to instantly flick to adjust the rope to remain continuous, so random lifetimes and continuous emitters can look poor, depending on the effect.
render_screen_velocity_rotate
Unknown.
render_sprite_trail
Renders animated sprites with trails based on their velocity.
render_blobs
render_blobs + Constrain particles to a box
Template:2009 add Renders particles as blobs of liquid. This is the effect used by Portal 2's paint. The material used should be opaque, and ideally have $phong enabled.
render_models
Template:2009 add Renders 3D models instead of particles.
render_project
Template:2009 add Unknown. Draws projected textures?
