Black is a Pixel shader available in all Source Source games since Alien Swarm Alien Swarm.[confirm] It is the shader used by tools/toolsblack_cheap and tools/toolsblack_noportal_skybox. It is only affected by fog, therefore it does not take any parameters.

Todo: 
  • Is it actually functional ? In what games ?
  • Is it used anywhere else than in Portal 2 Portal 2 ? In what games is it avalaible and what are the differences, if any ?
  • Move info from the tool texture page to here.
