Shnappz Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Hello All, Was just wondering if someone could answer this. How do you texture tracks to make the engine animate them by moving them round the wheels? Pretty sure someone mentioned there was something you had to do slightly differently. Thanks in advance 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralCamo Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 https://secure.w3dhub.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=414510 Follow this tutorial, then simply texture the tread normally. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shnappz Posted March 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) oh... simple as that? I can already bone the treads, i've done that fine! so the engine know's that if something is called v_tread_l or whatever to spin the texture around it? Nice! Thanks Edited March 26, 2015 by Shnappz 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonsense715 Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 You also need to set the stage 0 mapping to Linear Offset and change the speed of it in LE. You can find that towards the end of this video tut:https://secure.w3dhub.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=414804 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
