Moving brushes with a twist!

[Rezil]

A question: Is it possible to move brushes in one direction and cycle the texture in the other?

[waywaaaard]

with script or in radiant?

With a script.

Hm the move-functions can't be altered. I would suggest to do it yourself:

1. start the moving and thread a function that cycles the texture
2. when the movement is done notify the texture thread

function(){

brush thread texture();

brush moveX(...);
brush waittill("movedone")

notify("endtexture");
}

texture(){

self endon("endtexture");

while(1){
self moveTexture...;
}
}

Yeah but is there a command that lets me move the actual texture on a brush? For now the only thing I can think of is having multiple brushes at the same spot with the texture a bit off in each one of them, moving the whole thing and hiding individual brushes to give a feeling of a moving texture.

CoD1 you could use animated textures, I believe it was removed in CoD2.

if you want to make an animation, it is possible. that is not the way of using one animated texture. in detail, find my post: viewtopic.php?f=11&t=9599

I know about using a bunch of brushes that's not how I want it done. It seems it's the only way tho.

Like Drofder said, it was possible in CoD1 using a certain type of scripting, but I don't think it's possible in later CoDs due to the addition of the AssMan which automates the whole process.
