Shaders

alienscale

• Not found in Source Materials.gcf.
• Not found in released mod code.
• Not working? Removed?

"Bloom"

• The following additional info is not printed in the Shaders in Dev\ article because I might have gotten this here info from outdates files (Koders), so this here might no longer be accurate:
• Found in released mod code, defined in bloom.cpp. Only parameters are "$FBTexture" <texture> and "$BlurTexture" <texture>.
• Possibly replaced by newer shaders.

"Cloud"

• Found in Source Materials.gcf. Only used by the materials "Nature\cloud001c.vmt", "shadertest\cloud.vmt" and "shadertest\jet.vmt".
• Probably not defined by released mod code.

• Not found in Source Materials.gcf.
• Not found in released mod code.
• Not working? Removed?

debugbumpedvertexlit

• Not found in Source Materials.gcf.

debugfbtexture

• Not found in Source Materials.gcf.
• Only refered to once in released mod code. (src\cl_dll\view_scene.cpp)

• Mentioned, but not found, in released mod code.
• A fallback for the LightmappedGeneric shader when DirectX 6 was supported
• Remark from Valve: "This takes into account the alpha channel of the basetexture which we can't modulate against under dx7 since envmap happens in a separate pass."
