I want to create a conveyor and i am using the "entity.u" property.
That does not work!

In the manual:
The pixel offsets of map entity textures, in horizontal and vertical direction. By changing these offsets in real time, effects like streaming water can be achieved.
Note: this parameter is not used anymore in newer engine versions, but can be set as a workaround for the DirectX mesh animation bug (see bugs).


Is it right that i cannot use it anymore....?

(I have got 6.60 extra)

I need a solution for this problem soon...

Before installing a new version, read the compatibility notes in the installation instructions:

Oh!

Thanks!

The fx_uvspeed() function is working.

But there's a problem:

I wrote this code...
"My.Skill1 = 1;"
WROKS FINE!
but when I wrote this code (if the speed of the computer varies)....
"My.Skill1 = 10*Time;"
THE TEXTURE OF THE CONVEYOR IS SHIVERING!

Is there a way to avoid this?

(I hope I have read all important notes this time )

Of course there is. You need to increase or decrease the value of skill1 over the time. Therefore it is
Code:

---

my.skill1 += time_step * 10;

---

or
Code:

---

my.skill1 -= time_step * 10;

---

Don't use time. This variable is deprecated. Use time_step or time_frame instead.

function mtl_uvspeed_render()
{
// using the material matrix:
// u' = u * mtl.matrix11 + v * mtl.matrix21 + mtl.matrix31;
// v' = u * mtl.matrix12 + v * mtl.matrix22 + mtl.matrix32;
mtl.matrix31 = floatd(my.skill1*total_ticks,256);
mtl.matrix32 = floatd(my.skill2*total_ticks,256);
}

function mtl_uvspeed_init()
{
// copy standard model material properties
mtl_copy(mat_model);
mat_identity(mtl.matrix);
mtl.event = mtl_uvspeed_render;
mtl.ENABLE_RENDER = on;
}

MATERIAL mtl_uvspeed =
{
event = mtl_uvspeed_init;
effect = "
matrix matMtl;

technique uvspeed
{
pass one
{
TextureTransformFlags[0] = Count2;
TextureTransform[0] = <matMtl>;
}
}
technique fallback { pass one { } }
";
}

//action: fx_uvspeed
//title: Texture shifting in u and v direction
//

//help: Texture Speed in U direction, default 0
//skill2: Speed_V -2

//
action fx_uvspeed()
{

my.material = mtl_uvspeed;

mtl_uvspeed_init();

While(1)
{
My.Skill1 += 0.01*Time_Step;
Wait(1);
}

}


****

The Speed of the shifting is growing.....

Did I correct the "time" twice? (The red parts)
Or did I use the wrong matrix?

You were already increasing in the event. just replaceCode:

---

mtl.matrix31 = floatd(my.skill1*total_ticks,256);
mtl.matrix32 = floatd(my.skill2*total_ticks,256);

---

withCode:

---

mtl.matrix31 = floatd(my.skill1,256);
mtl.matrix32 = floatd(my.skill2,256);

---

That should do the trick.

YES! That's works very well!

Thank you!
