  • Disable X360 (disableX360) <Choices>

    • No
    • Yes
  • Render Mode (rendermode) <Choices>
    Used to set a non-standard rendering mode on this entity. See also 'FX Amount' and 'FX Color'.

    • Normal
    • Color
    • Texture
    • Glow
    • Solid
    • Additive
    • Additive Fractional Frame
    • World Space Glow
    • Dont Render
    • Dev Visualizer
  • FX Amount (0 - 255) (renderamt) <Integer>
    The FX amount is used by the selected Render Mode.

  • FX Color (R G B) (rendercolor) <Color255>
    The FX color is used by the selected Render Mode.

  • Disable Receiving Shadows (disablereceiveshadows) <Boolean>

  • Light Group (lightgroup) <String>
    Will only be lit by lights affecting this group.

  • Start Fade Dist (fademindist) <Float>
    Distance at which the overlay starts to fade (<0 = subtract from fademaxdist).

  • End Fade Dist (fademaxdist) <Float>
    Maximum distance at which the overlay is visible (0 = don't fade out).

  • Fade Scale (fadescale) <Float>
    If you specify a fade in the worldspawn, or if the engine is running under low end/medium end/XBox360, then the engine will forcibly fade out props even if fademindist/fademaxdist isn't specified. This scale factor gives you some control over the fade. Using 0 here turns off the forcible fades. Numbers smaller than 1 cause the prop to fade out at further distances, and greater than 1 cause it to fade out at closer distances.

  • Render to Cubemaps (rendertocubemaps) <Boolean>
    If true, this geometry renders into baked cube maps

  • Parent Model Bone/Attachment Name (parentAttachmentName) <ParentAttachment>
    The name of the bone or attachment to attach to on the entity's parent in the movement hierarchy. Use !bonemerge to use bone-merge style attachment.

  • Model Attachment position offset (local.origin) <Vector>
    Offset in the local space of the parent model's attachment/bone to use in hierarchy. Not used if you are not using parent attachment.

  • Model Attachment angular offset (local.angles) <Angle>
    Angular offset in the local space of the parent model's attachment/bone to use in hierarchy. Not used if you are not using parent attachment.

  • Model Attachment scale (local.scales) <Vector>
    Scale in the local space of the parent model's attachment/bone to use in hierarchy. Not used if you are not using parent attachment.

  • Use Model Attachment Offset (useLocalOffset) <Boolean>

  • Pose Parameter Name (poseParameterName) <String>
    Pose parameter to use for various unit tests
