The $envmap VMT parameter causes the material surface to reflect the nearest env_cubemap.

Basic VMT Syntax

"$envmap" "env_cubemap"
  • AFAIK this is currently the only use of $envmap.

Additional Parameters

Adjust overall reflection color & contrast

$envmapcontrast
"$envmapcontrast" float
  • Scales the dynamic range of the reflected env_cubmap.
  • Use higher contrasts to diminish relatively darker areas, increase "hot spots".
  • contrast 0 == normal 1 == color*color.
$envmapsaturation
"$envmapsaturation" float
  • Scales the colour intensity of the $envmap.
  • saturation 0 == greyscale 1 == normal
$envmaptint
"$envmaptint" "[float float float]"
  • Scales the red, green, and blue components of the $envmap.


Specular masking

$envmapmask
"$envmapmask" "texture"
  • Masks the $envmap according to the alpha channel of the named "texture".
$basealphaenvmapmask
"$basealphaenvmapmask" 1
$normalmapalphaenvmapmask
"$normalmapalphaenvmapmask" 1
$envmapmaskscale
"$envmapmaskscale" float
$envmaskframe
"$envmaskframe"
  • (to do ...)

TO DO ... help required

$envmaptransform
"$envmaptransform"
  • dx9
$envmapframe
"$envmapframe"
$envmapmode
"$envmapmode" 1
$envmapsphere
"$envmapsphere" 1
