Title: Preset mane scrolling
Post by: Nawazish on November 23, 2016, 10:14:40 pm
Hello and sorry to disturb you but I would like some help if possible ^^'
When making a mane scrolling, everything is fine but there is one thing I hate and I don't know if we can do something about it. After a few sec, the  scrolling mane disappear then reappear{?} like nothing happened. Can we change this?

I tried to explain the more I could but with english not being my native tongue, it's a little hard.


Thanks for reading this and helping me *Bow

Could you post your code? I can take a look at it. And, if you think you'd want to, you can send me the actual textures of the mane and the code to try to fix the issues.
Post your code using this:
Code: [Select]
code Paste Code Here /code
Except, add brackets around the code and /code

Usually it has to do with the way the design is if it goes totally black and then reappears. It don't think it's a coding issue at all but rather a design flaw.

That's what I was thinking it could be. I'm actually confident that's what they're describing. I guess when they post the code and textures, we'll be able to see if that's the issue. Maybe if the whole mane is disappearing, it could be a part of their scroll texture that's at fault (if there was some transparency to the scroll texture).

Post your code using this:
Code: [Select]
material preset_7_maneMat
{
technique
{
pass
{
cull_hardware none
cull_software none
alpha_rejection greater_equal 128
texture_unit
{
texture preset_7mane.png
scroll_anim -1.0 -1.0
}
}
}
}




There you go and for the others, the mane do not become black, it's just become transparent,invisible for a sec then it come back

I'm not seeing anything wrong with the code so far. I'm thinking it may have something to do with the texture. Especially if pieces of the texture are transparent. Mind uploading the mane texture to Imgur and posting it? I'll be able to test it then in Preset Maker to see the problem

I finally found the problem guys ^^'
I accidently did the mane when there is no scrolling so the spike was invisible, that's what made the mane disappear.
But thank you soo much ^^ You were very kind for trying to help me so thank you *Hug everyone*
