Alien Swarmasw_snow_volume is a brush_entity available in Alien Swarm that causes snow to fall while Marines are inside the trigger.

Recommendations

  • Do NOT cover the Entire Map with a single asw_snow_volume it will cause your map to LAG if your map is large.
  • for Large maps create small but overlaping asw_snow_volumes, so it gives the illusion that the entire map is snowing without dragging down performance.

Keyvalues

Snow Type
Type of snow that falls.
Note.pngNote: This setting must be the same on all asw_snow_volumes in your map. Heavier snow should be used in outdoor maps, where snow clouds/particles cover the level (snow particles WILL flow outside the volume bounds some).

Flags
