Template:Shaderparam It morphs a material around using the parameters of an env_wind entity to give the appearance of tree leaves and foilage blowing in the wind. The subparameters of $treesway determine how much the env_wind entity should affect the morphing, and all of them (except $treeswaystatic) must be specified in order for the effect to work properly. This shader parameter assumes any model using it is facing upwards.

Note.pngNote:This shader parameter is also available in Team Fortress 2, Black Mesa, and Garry's Mod. In Garry's Mod, it can also be used for UnlitGeneric.
Note.pngNote:This shader is disabled by default in the Alien Swarm SDK. It can re-enabled by modding.
Icon-Bug.pngBug:In Garry's Mod, using a projected texture on materials with this parameter will cause flickering. As a workaround, try to keep trees away from where player flashlights can reach. $halflambert may also partially fix the issue.  [todo tested in ?]
Todo: What about $singlepassflashlight and $flashlightnolambert?
