I had no idea were to put this since i dont use litec and the scripting forum has been removed.

my question is, is there any functions that would lend them selves to finding the uv coordinates on an entitiys skin that correlate to were the mouse is hovering over top of them?

if its a terain you can calculate it yourself

else maby c_trace but i gues not

i never tried it but maby it helps you:
vec_for_uv (VECTOR*, ENTITY*, var number);

Yes, c_trace is it. Trace a ray from the camera position in direction mouse_dir3d and then the hit struct gives you the uv position on the hit texture. But this only works with lite-c because the hit struct is a lite-c struct.

damn, im going to have to upgrade soon. oh well, ill work on it sometime.
