$basetexture is a material shader parameter available in all 
Source games. It defines a diffuse texture. It is very rare for a material not to use this parameter and some shaders will load a default texture if it stays undefined.
VMT Syntax
$basetexture <texture without extension, relative to <game>\materials\>
LightmappedGeneric { $basetexture brick\brickwall031b }
Additional Parameters
$basetexture2
Some shaders (most notably WorldVertexTransition) allow the use of two albedos. The second texture is handled by a mirrored set of commands with '2' in their name:
There are further '2' commands applying to various shader effects, which are each documented in their respective articles.
