ArtMurder Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 like, if I wanted something on my armor to change colors or blink how would I be able to do that if it is possible? ^_^
lazyskeever Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 The only type of animated texture I can think of is the kind that uses a whole sheet of frames in a single image, like some explosions.
bben46 Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 My guess as to how to do this:You would have to replace one texture with another on the fly. In the case of armor, you would have one set of armor with pink texture and another identical set with blue texture and swap from one to the other using a script. The effect should be the armor changes color almost immediately. By swapping back and forth with a short delay, you could get a flickering effect.
Jeir Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 The gemstones in the Evenstar from this mod changes colour (white/blue/pink) constantly. Perhaps you can look at that mesh/the plugin and see if you can work out how it's done?
Elianora Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 I wonder if this helps http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/47104
Matth85 Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 While I am actually not sure about Skyrim, it was very possible in Oblivion. Back then we had a sequence of textures which would flip quickly through, simulating an animated texture. I have yet to try in in Skyrim, but I believe it works -- the .nif part of the Gamebryo engine -- ehem, Construction engine, was not changed that much. Back then it did not require a script or anything -- nifskope had controller nodes to control it. Food for thought, I guess.
ReaverLord Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 Very cool! I think maybe a dry to sweaty skin texture might be cool!
blabba Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) yes possible. Dunno how to do it but chances are you do it the same way you do it for past games: http://tesrenewal.com/files/Ehamloptiran/images/CreekBed.gif Edited July 20, 2014 by blabba
DDProductions83 Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 Incorrect, it is possible to animate textures, On 6/9/2014 at 7:15 AM, Elianora said: I wonder if this helps http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/47104 This is 100% accurate, you can also make the animated textures triggered akin to how a door is or activation so there is a on and off component allowing you to define when you want it to happen in the game Just check down one or two posts the latest video from my discworld mod has a functioning stargate. To be fair it was effectshaders being controlled but same principle applies to regular textures etc, I have tested this and confirmed and plan to make some really cool effects and armors retext's later in the mod
