NightCrawlerz

<div class="IPBDescription">just asking</div> If there is indeed a way to animate bullet holes i would like it if somone would like to add a glowing center to the current ns bullet hole that slowly fades to black.

bullet hole is created with a glowing center that slowly cools to the normal black.

trust me it gonna look hecka cool if this could be done.

Bullet holes are decals, not sprites.

-Drake-

dont think so a decal is just like a texture

Textures can indeed be animated, but you can't have a transparent animation, so all the white around the bullet hole would show.

NightCrawlerz

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and it would have looked sooo soo amazing ly cool watching your bullet holes cool and all... bah i hate the world now.

But wait what if you made a new bullet hole texture without white??
is there any way possible to make this work...

MalambisBZ

There's no way to make transparency without adding { infront of the texture, which makes the + animation symbol do nothing.

Unless someone knows some trick to make it work, i'm afraid this wont work.

The gauss gun in HL single player used a sprite where the impact was, which is hardcoded.

NightCrawlerz

Well then... is there a way i can change the lmg bullet impact to that of the gauss guns?

Phyco

well if u want to tear ur **** open decompiling that and recoding it and recompiling and figiting with ns to accept it as the bullet hole

YES

but i dont think any1 would do it for you
