$basetexture: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 20:09, 4 April 2008

$basetexture specifies the VTF texture to use for the basic 'skin' or diffusemap of the material surface.
If the basetexture.vtf has an alpha channel (ie it's 32bit rather than 24bit) this can be used as luminositymap ($selfillum).

"$basetexture" "path/to/vtf"
  "$basetexturetransform" "center .5 .5 scale 1 1 rotate 0 translate 0 0"
  "$selfillum" 0
    "$selfillumtint" ?

"$basetexture" "Path/TextureA"

"$basetexturetransform" "center <float> <float> scale <float> <float> rotate <float> translate <float> <float>"

Transforms the image from the base texture before use in the material.
The default position is: "center .5 .5 scale 1 1 rotate 0 translate 0 0".
"center" values are UV 0.1 coordinates.
"scale" values are UV divisors. (Values of 2 will make the transformed texture half as big.)
"translate" values are UV 0.1 coordinates.
"rotate" values are 0-360 degree UV angles.

-===$selfillum===
- "$selfillum" 1
-* Uses the [[alpha channel]] of the [[$basetexture]] to set minumum clamps on the lighting, making it seem like the material glows in the dark.
-* For the texture, an alpha value of ''255'' means 100% self-illumination, while an alpha value of ''0'' means 0% self-illumination.
-====$selfillumtint====
- "$selfillumtint" ?
-* Used to adjust the color of [[$selfillum]].
