Note:$illumposition can be overridden per-entity on most entities (including prop_static) by using the lightingorigin KV.
Important:The default illumposition is not the origin of the model, but rather the center of the model, based upon the first sequence.
$illumposition is a QC command available in all 
Source games. It sets the lighting origin for the model, relative to its origin.
When illuminating an animated or moving model in the engine, the lighting calculations are only done for the two brightest light sources, via the worldlights lump. All the other lights, as well as bounced light from the environment, are taken from a single ambient cube.
You can optionally specify a bone name for the illum position. If you do, the position specified will be interpreted as being relative to the specified bone.
