Usage
- $basetexture specifies the VTF texture to use for the basic 'skin' or diffusemap of the material surface.
- If the basetexture.vtf has an alpha channel (ie it's 32bit rather than 24bit) this can be used as luminositymap ($selfillum).
VMT syntax and default values
"$basetexture" "path/to/vtf"
"$basetexturetransform" "center .5 .5 scale 1 1 rotate 0 translate 0 0"
"$selfillum" 0
"$selfillumtint" ?
Available values
$basetexture
"$basetexture" "Path/TextureA"
- where
Pathis the filepath relative togame_directory/materialsfolder. - where
TextureAis the filename; ieTextureA.vtf. - Notice the
.vtffile extension is not used in VMT texture references.
$basetexturetransform
"$basetexturetransform" "center <float> <float> scale <float> <float> rotate <float> translate <float> <float>"
- Transforms the image from the base texture before use in the material.
- The default position is:
"center .5 .5 scale 1 1 rotate 0 translate 0 0". - "center" values are UV 0.1 coordinates.
- "scale" values are UV divisors. (Values of
2will make the transformed texture half as big.) - "translate" values are UV 0.1 coordinates.
- "rotate" values are 0-360 degree UV angles.
- Note: You must include all variables.
