Table of contents1 Entity Description2 Keyvalues3 Inputs4 OutputsEntity Description
Brush-built model that fades out over a specified distance. Useful for creating world detail that doesn't need to be drawn far away, for performance reasons.
Note: The overhead required by this entity is substantial. Use it only for special effects or when fading very dense geometery, and one could then argue, shouldn't that better be a model?
Note: The fading is not always consistent; brushes may suddenly "pop" into view depending on where the player is looking. This happens because of a hardware issues with rendering translucent materials. Low-end cards will fade nearer than the distance specified, and smaller objects fade nearer than a larger object with the same fade distance.

0 | Normal | Default rendering. |
1 | Color | Obsolete. |
2 | Texture | Plain opacity. |
3 | Glow | No Z buffer checks. Fixed size on screen. |
4 | Solid / Alphatest | Obsolete. (Use alphatest capabilities in materials instead.) |

- <integer> FX Amount (0 - 255) - How opaque the entity will be rendered. (
0
is fully transparent, while 255
is fully opaque). Will not work if the rendermode keyvalue is set to Normal or Dont Render.
- <color255> FX Color - What color the entity will be rendered in (to the degree of the opacity set with renderamt).
- <float> The minimum level of ambient light that hits this brush.
- <integer> Distance at which these brushes should fade out.
- <choices> Set whether or not these brushes should collide with other entities.
