Func areaportalwindow: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 17:46, 29 June 2012

A func_areaportal_window that hides interior geometry by turning black at a distance.

It creates an areaportal that automatically closes as the camera moves away, fading a second, opaque brush in to fill the gap.

Rendered Window <targetname>: The brush entity that fills the gap left by the portal when closed.
Fade Start Distance <int>
Fade End Distance <int>: Unit boundaries of the fadeout.
Translucency limit <normal>: Prevents the Rendered Window brush from ever going completely transparent. Useful if your rendered window uses an opaque glass material.
Foreground bmodel <targetname>: Optional brush entity that is drawn after the fading brush model. This model should have alpha in its textures so you can see through it.

Name (targetname) <string>[ Edit ]: The name that other entities refer to this entity by, via Inputs/Outputs or other keyvalues (e.g. parentname or target).
Also displayed in Hammer's 2D views and Entity Report. See also: Generic Keyvalues, Inputs and Outputs available to all entities
