Texture animation/Scrolling textures

by Jonas · in Torque 3D Professional · 05/24/2014 (12:45 am) · 2 replies

Heya,

Im currently looking at what posibilities there are in Torque3D for texture animation, specifically scrolling animation that can have its state/speed changed in script during run time. Can one by any chance change the animation properties of a material in run time and if so how would one go about doing that?

Best regards

    Take a look at this resource about theora video's as a texture. I don't know if this is what you're looking for but it might give you an idea.

    Hello, sorry for taking ages to respond to this.

    Thanks for the link Richard, although its not quite what im looking for.

    Basically what i want to do is manipulate a materials attributes in run time. So for example in the material editor i can set a value that determines the materials scrolling speed, how would i go about doing the same thing through script whilst my game is running?
