can someone explain me what a texture projector is? i have no clue




It's a mask for a light. You can "fake" a fancy shape for your shadows. Kind of like the cool shadow effects in Far Cry, Splinter Cell, and the new Thief. Not sure if the last two are using that method, but that's similar. See here:

Does this work with dynamic lights(according to the link it can only be used with them..at least in that engine)? Can the projected texture move around? Say I have a grate and a torch is on one side and projecting a grate shadow texture on the wall. Can I make the projector texture flicker/strobe like it's being affected by the torch?
