Title: Animated jump node?
Post by: Colonol Dekker on July 21, 2009, 03:03:03 am

Before I ask how to make a node, (just splines or what?) Is it possible to have a rotating sub-section within it?

An jump node is just an object...so methinks it's possible.

I recall making a black hole that rotated a while ago...Hmm..wonder if that file is still available somewhere.

It's just a pof that's drawn wireframe instead of shaded. But that's not enough to guarantee it'll work with rotating stuff.

Yeah, the lack of table entry confused me although I can still make entries in pcs2. . .

Yeah I had worked on starting 2 BH's ,but no one was interested in helping so I let it slide, like 3-4 YEARS ago cause I needed it for my fic...

 :lol:

Plus I tried using one of Trash's models but when I put the BH texture on I cobbled together, you could still see red LINES from the model geometry through the texture....

I pointed it out and AFAIK it never got fixed.
