I swear there used to be a "fade" render FX but it seems to have disappeared. How can I fade / in out objects depending on distance?

That's "glow", isn't it?

That's with point-based entities only though. I must've been using SoHL, there's literally nothing else I can find

Shite, that buggers up an idea I had.

The Slow Become Solid, Fast Become Solid, Fade etc.? Yeah, just add some more lines in your FGD file. :p

They don't seem to at all work in Sven Coop. At least, with additive mode.

Hmm. It worked for me with the Texture render mode at least. But you're looking for a glow effect, so. Hmm

Competition 10 - Build a Machine Brief
Info
The original Half-Life had some wonderful machines. Some small, some big. Generators, compactors, Gear driven giants. Squashers, crushers, furnaces, rotors and rollers. Not all these machines actually did anything, some were just their for ambience and feel.
Create a room with a machine and make the machine belong. It doesn't have to do be a "functional" part of the map, but it must look as though it is meant to be there. Enhance it with lasers, func_rotating, func_platforms, moving gears and lights and whatever else you can think of. Stuck for ideas? Have a look in the opening maps in HL... remember that welding robot? The small electricity generators in the corridor?
1st place goes to the most impressive machine that fits the surrounding map.
