texture warping help

Okay, so I'm trying to warp the FWATER texture but it isn't working! I put in: warp flat water
but it warps it then it goes back to the normal texture, what's going on?

FWATER1 is the first frame in an animation (sequence) of other textures. You must warp all frames in the animation, or use an unanimated water texture (some wad has wfwater for this, make it if it doesn't).

So I take it that I need to make an ANIMDEFS lump and then add the FWATER stuff and warp it?

Don't do it on an existing FWATER* flat, unless you want it to warp AND animate. I usually just copy the flat and name it FWATER (with no number), then warp that.

But yes, you just make an ANIMDEFS and set it to warp your flat(s).

Keep in mind, that there are two types of warps you can use. Refer to the ZDoom Wiki page on ANIMDEFS for more info.

EDIT: omg typo.

I like WARP2 for non-gloopy liquids, like water, and WARP for more gloopy ones.

Gloopy is a good word! It should see more common usage.

Is gloopy suppoised to be similar to viscous?

Post by **Enjay** » Sun Feb 19, 2006 20:45

Yes, but gloopy has an onomatopoeic element to it that I like and implies something more like a boiling hot mud pool than an almost static puddle of treacle.

A scientist, a mapper and a poet! Is there no limit to this man's talents?

You definitely like strange words, Enjay!

"If you can't find it in a regular dictionary, chances are it's a slang term."

Heh.

WHOOPS

I must've somehow linked to the wrong term.

Thanks for covering me.
