i was just wondering... Created 17 years ago2006-06-06 19:37:55 UTC by 3mil

if it's possible to use a button to trigger one texture to change to another. and if so can any one tell me how? help is appreciated

thanks, at least now i can play around with light textures. to bad it doesn't work for others, imagine flicking a light switch and the walls change colors

use two env_renders, and have two walls with different colours on top of each other - set to func_wall and named. Change the second wall to texture and FXamount 1, then set the renders to change the properties of the first to this and then second wall to fxamount 225.

The button should trigger a multimanager to trigger the two env_renders

You could also get away with only having one render by having the second wall 1 unit in front of the other, so the player wouldn't notice the difference. Then just use 1 render to make the second wall appear

Make two textures, named:

+0texturename
+Atexturename

Apply the "+0" texture wherever it has to go, and make it a func_wall. Also, give it a name.

Have your button target that func_wall, and hitting the button will cause it to change to the "+A" texture.

if i may ask a stupid question.
when you place a button, the texture is supposed to change when you use it.
how do you select the second texture.

First off. Welcome to the Forum

Secondly. Don't bump 6 month old threads. We hate that.

As for your question, You can't choose the second texture without making your own .wad texture file.

e.g. +Abutton1 and +0button1 would switch when used on a func_button entity.

Use two func_wall_toggles.

Have one that starts on, and the other start off... and when you click the button, it triggers a multimanager that triggers both at the same time.

Should work, but remember, the func_wall_toggle is an entity and can't be on the outside of the map.
