Is it possible to have a scrolling wall? I'm trying to make a train level, were you sneak around the outside of the train, and it looks like the train's actually moving.

Cool Stuff Software is gnarley.

I know that there is some command to make the textures tile, so if you know how to write shaders, you could make some kind of motion shader that makes it look as if the trains is moving, while it's only the textures moving.

Conmon, dont be so lazy and dont use caps.

Anyways, there is an effect in the effects folder for
In your script you can add an effect.
The effect scrolls and image across the surface, search around in the effect area after hitting add effect in the segment editor

Opposites are different, not wrong

Not in FPSC you can't. What are you going to write the shader IN? FPI scripts? I don't think so!

also

That's just plain rubbish! There is no shader in FPSc that does that. Why not just admit you don't know rather than giving this poor guy a bunch of false information!

You could make this effect by making a decal that scrolls a wall texture. You then scale the decal to the same size as your wall and place it outside the train window.

Sorry, but, that probably would work, if my ExGen decal maker would work.

Also, I wasn't going to say anything, but.... gnarly is spelled without the "e".

check out www.thrashermagazine.com you'll see what I mean
