[Material Proxy] Env_Lightmap

This is a resource for modders that is just the 'MwEnvMapTint' proxy from the Modern Warfare SWEPs but made into a standalone addon for convenience so that you don't have to require downloading a whole customizable weapon sysem if you only just want to have a fix for your cubemaps glowing in the dark

This material proxy will brighten or darken a given material's cubemapping to match the surrounding area's lighting so that it becomes less apparent in darker areas, or more apparent in well lit areas

Simply add the following to your material's VMT file:

NOTE: For best results, use a cubemap that's compiled with HDR, as non-HDR cubemaps will appear more desaturated

If you don't know how to do that, there's a tutorial on the VDC Wiki for creating HDR skyboxes that can also apply to making HDR cubemaps HERE

All credits go to Mushroom Guy, who made the base scripts for the Modern Warfare SWEPs, who also wrote this material proxy

I just made it into a standalone resource for modders (with their permission, of course)

DISCLAIMER:
I know Draconic has a similar material proxy, and while it's got more features and such, i just don't like how there's such a noticeable delay before the cubemap readjusts to the new lighting and how it overrides the initial tint color with the ambient lighting's color, this material proxy takes affect immediately and takes into account the tint color as it adjusts the brightness
