func_water

GoldSrc

Source Engine

func_water is a brush entity available in all GoldSrc games. A water texture (one prefixed with '!') will act as water, but binding it to an entity gives added advantages. This Brush Entity acts like a func_door, it's designed to be able to move (flooding etc.).

Key Values

Targetname:

Name (targetname) <targetname>

The targetname that other entities refer to this entity by.

Global:

Global Entity Name (???) <string>

Name to identify entity accross level transitions. Entities with the same global name will have the same status accross maps.

Angles:

This entity's orientation in the world. Pitch is rotation around the Y axis, yaw is the rotation around the Z axis, roll is the rotation around the X axis.

Also used to control the speed of scrolling textures; see func_conveyor for more information.

Contents (skin) <choices>

-3: Water
-4: Slime
-5: Lava

Wave Height (WaveHeight) <string>

Default value is 3.2.

ZHLT:

ZHLT Light Flags (ZHLT 2.2+) (zhlt_lightflags) <choices>

Special lighting behavior. Only available if using Zoner's Half-Life Compile Tools.

• 0 : "Default"
• 1 : "Embedded Fix"
• 2 : "Opaque (blocks light)"
• 3 : "Opaque + Embedded fix"
• 6 : "Opaque + Concave Fix"

Light Origin Target (ZHLT 2.2+) (light_origin) <targetname>

Used to define a target to sample lighting from.

Nonsolid (ZHLT) (zhlt_noclip) <boolean>

Disables generation of clipnodes for all brushes on this entity, except for clip brushes. The entity may still be solid to point traces (hitscans, grenades, etc) if the brush contents are set to solid.

Tip:Always enable this for func_illusionary; VHLT does not properly strip clipnodes for this entity.

Don't Render (ZHLT 3+) (zhlt_invisible) <boolean>

Treat all faces as if they were textured with NULL.

Tip:Use this on triggers which use custom textures instead of AAATRIGGER or NULL, such as ladders.

Fake Lightmap (VHLT v33+) (zhlt_embedlightmap) <boolean>

Generates unique diffuse textures for all textured faces, then bakes lighting information directly into the generated textures. Primarily used to prevent translucent surfaces from "glowing", as rendermodes which support translucency don't render lightmaps on the vanilla renderer.

Important:The resulting textures will be renamed to have the prefix __rad; as such, any unique attributes will be lost.

Downscale Fake Lightmap (VHLT v34+) (zhlt_embedlightmapresolution) <integer>

Downscale texture created by zhlt_embedlightmap this many times.
