Animated Textures
Animated Textures
Is it possible to have animated textures?
Re: Animated Textures
Not precisely:
The current lava texture only scrolls and changes brightness. I'm talking about textures that could be used for TVs, computer screens, etc. Like a GIF.

Re: Animated Textures
the answer is yes, take a look at the animated texture video on the home page - & in the 2.4 dev there's a map to check out too.

Re: Animated Textures
Hmmm. I'm assuming this is a feature of the new version that is coming out.
It looks like it takes a plethora of single textures...stored INSIDE sandbox. It probably wouldn't be feasible to do MANY animated textures--as in 30 plus animated computer screen textures.

Re: Animated Textures
correct, each frame is stored in memory, and the engine isn't set up to unload things on occasion, so all the frames are stuck in memory once loaded. so if anything, you should beware using texanim, if you must use it at all.dr.tygen wrote:It probably wouldn't be feasible to do MANY animated textures
and for the curious, this feature is inside 2.3, I think it was just suffering a few bugs that keeps it from working too well (they've been sorted out in 2.4)
you'll have to ask offtools
This is not a url, clicking it is pointless
Re: Animated Textures

ie:
/texanim _______ _____ ____ _____ ____

Re: Animated Textures
btw: there's a different implementation of animated textures in bloodfrontier. the idea on that implementation is putting the frames for animation into one image.
