Entity Description
An entity that controls screen fades. Add duration and holdtime together for the total time this entity will be in effect.
Keyvalues
- Template:Kv targetname
- duration
- <integer> The time that it will take to fade the screen in or out.
- holdtime
- <integer> The time to hold the faded in/out state.
- renderamt
- <byte> Alpha of the fade, where 0 = fully transparent and 255 = fully opaque.
- rendercolor
- ⇆#000000rgb(0,0,0)⇆ Fade Color
Flags
- 1 : Fade From - Essentially a "fade in," where the screen begins from an opaque color.
- 2 : Modulate - Use attenuation blending, see Notes.
- 8 : Stay Out - The fade remains indefinitely until another fade deactivates it.
Inputs
- Start the screen fade.
Outputs
- Template:O targetname
- OnBeginFade
- Fired when the fade has begun.
Notes

- The modulate flag on env_fade uses a different kind of blending to achieve the fade. The normal fade does a straight weighted blend between the screen and the fade's color (i.e. the fade color becomes a more/less opaque overlay over the scene).

So you could, for example, remove all of the red and blue from a scene with modulate and be left with a green "nightvision" display - well, sort of nightvision anyway. The fade color for that would be pure green with modulate.
