Template:KV func brush

func_brush:

Minimum Light Level (_minlight) <float>

The minimum level of ambient light that hits this brush.

Solidity (Solidity) <choices>

Used to control the solidity/collision of these brushes.

• 0: Toggle - The solidity can be toggled together with its visibility.
• 1: Never Solid
• 2: Always Solid

Solid BSP (solidbsp) <boolean>

Set this if this brush is in hierarchy with a moving object of some kind, and the player can stand on this brush.

NPC class excluded from collisions (excludednpc) <classname>

If an NPC classname (i.e. npc_zombie) is specified here, NPCs of that type won't collide with these brushes.

Invert NPC class exclusion (invert_exclusion) <boolean>

If set, then the excluded NPC class will consider this brush solid, and all other NPC classes will consider it non-solid.

Shadows (vrad_brush_cast_shadows) <boolean>

Configures whether this brush casts lightmap shadows.

Start Disabled (StartDisabled) <boolean>

Stay dormant until activated (with theEnableinput).

Tip:If Solidity is Toggle, disabling func_brush also makes it non-solid.

Origin:

Origin (X Y Z) (origin) <origin>

The position of this entity's center in the world. Rotating entities typically rotate around their origin.

Shadow:

Disable Shadows (disableshadows) <boolean>

Prevents the entity from creating cheap render-to-texture shadows, or lightmap shadows if the entity is a prop_static. Does not affect shadow mapping.

Disable Receiving Shadows (disablereceiveshadows) <boolean>

Prevent the entity from receiving dynamic shadows on itself.

Shadow Cast Distance (shadowcastdist) <integer> !FGD

Sets how far the entity casts dynamic shadows. 0 means default distance from the shadow_control entity.

Disable Shadow Depth (disableshadowdepth) <boolean> (in all games since )

Used to disable rendering into shadow depth (for projected textures) for this entity.

Disable flashlight (disableflashlight) <boolean> (in all games since )

Used to disable projected texture lighting and shadows on this entity.

Projected Texture Cache (shadowdepthnocache) <integer choices> (in all games since )

Used to hint projected texture system whether it is sufficient to cache shadow volume of this entity or to force render it every frame instead.

Choices

0 : Default 1 : No cache - render every frame 2 : Cache it - render only once

Parentname:

Parent (parentname) <targetname>

Specifies a movement parent. An entity will maintain its initial offset from its parent. An attachment point can be added to the end of the name, separated by a comma.

Warning:In , parenting this entity to another can break your map.

RenderFields:

Render Mode (rendermode) <choices>

Set a non-standard rendering mode on this entity.

Render Modes

0: Normal 1: Color 2: Texture 3: Glow 4: Solid/Alphatest 5: Additive 6: Removed, does nothing 7: Additive Fractional Frame 8: Alpha Add 9: World Space Glow 10: Don't Render

Render FX (renderfx) <choices>

Various somewhat legacy alpha effects. See render effects

Render Amount / Transparency (renderamt) <integer 0–255>

Transparency amount, requires a Render Mode other than Normal. 0 is invisible, 255 is fully visible.

Render Color (R G B) (rendercolor) <color255>

Color tint.

Disable Receiving Shadows (disablereceiveshadows) <boolean>

Prevent the entity from receiving shadows on itself.

Global:

Global Entity Name (globalname) <string>

Name by which this entity is linked to another entity in a different map. When the player transitions to a new map, entities in the new map with globalnames matching entities in the previous map will have the previous map's state copied over their state.

Name (targetname) <string>

The name that other entities refer to this entity by, via Inputs/Outputs or other keyvalues (e.g. parentname or target).
Also displayed in Hammer's 2D views and Entity Report.
