When this parameter is added, it will make the material morph around to an env_wind entity to give it the effect that it's blowing in the wind, this effect is used for the trees you see in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and various foliage seen in
Insurgency. The effect assumes that the model is facing upwards, and the commands specify how much it should be affected by the
env_wind
entity. This parameter has possibly been in Valve games since Left 4 Dead, but was used until Left 4 Dead 2. Mods using the Alien Swarm codebase can enable this shader to take advantage of it.

Parameters
$treeSway "1" //Turns the effect on or off. $treeSwayHeight "float"//The height in which the effect is applied. $treeSwayStartHeight "float"//The height from the origin in which the effect starts blending in. $treeSwayRadius "float"//The radius from the origin in which the effect is applied. $treeSwayStartRadius "float"//The radius from the origin in which the effect starts blending in. $treeSwaySpeed "float"//The speed multiplier of large movement such as the trunk. $treeSwayStrength "float"//The distance multiplier of large movement such as the trunk. $treeSwayScrumbleSpeed "float"//The falloff of the effect on small movement such as the trunk. Higher means a more stable center. $treeSwayScrumbleStrength "float"//The speed multiplier of the small movement such as the leaves. $treeSwayScrumbleFrequency "float"//The distance multiplier of the small movement such as the leaves. $treeSwayFalloffExp "float"//The frequency of the rippling of a sine wave in small movement such as the leaves. $treeSwayScrumbleFalloffExp "float"//The falloff of the effect on small movement such as the leaves. Higher means a more stable center. $treeSwaySpeedHighWindMultiplier "float"//Speed multiplier when env_wind triggers a gust. $treeSwaySpeedLerpStart "float"//Minimum wind speed in which a gust triggered by env_wind will start affecting the material. $treeSwaySpeedLerpEnd "float"//Minimum wind speed in which a gust triggered by env_wind will fully affect the material. $treeSwayStatic "1" //Whether or not to instead use a static wind value instead of the values from env_wind.
