Note:A similar effect can be achieved by enabling Point Sampling in a texture's VTF file (which works on all materials).

Bug:This parameter may not work on older hardware. [todo tested in ?]


$pointsamplemagfilter is a material shader parameter available in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive,
Military Conflict: Vietnam, and
Jabroni Brawl: Episode 3 for
LightmappedGeneric
. It disables texture filtering on a material if the texture resolution is bigger than the space it occupies onscreen, and linearly interpolated (smooth) if its smaller, and will use mipmaps.
This makes it pixelated when near the texture, but smooth when far way, and will not produce moiré patterns when viewed at grazing angles or from distance, unlike just enabling Point Sampling flag in a material's VTF.



$basetexture
and will not have the desired effect on the $bumpmap
.
