BaseFadeProp:
Start Fade Dist <float>
End Fade Dist <float>
Distances at which the prop start and finish fading.
  • If start fade is <0, the prop will disappear instantly when end fade is hit.
  • If end fade is <0, the prop won't disappear at all. (This is the default behaviour.)
The values will scale appropriately if the prop is in a 3D Skybox.
Fade Scale <float>
If you specify so in worldspawn, or if the engine is running below DirectX 8 (DX7 in Ep1), props will fade out even if the fade distances above aren't specified. This value gives you some control over when this happens: numbers smaller than 1 cause the prop to fade out at further distances, and greater than 1 cause it to fade out at closer distances. Using 0 turns off the forced fade altogether.
