[NOT A BUG] video texture replacer

Post by scott »

i just tried to use the video texture replacer entity and it never worked, the steps i done.

create a new room (hollow cube)
put player setup in
put player start
put solid cube template in.
textured this with the 'yellow' texture that comes with RF
put in video texture replacmer entity in
for video name i put 'rfsplash.avi' (the avi that comes with RF)
replacment texture name 'yellow'
compiled level

when i started the level the solid block was now black and when i fired the gun it crashed the level.

Q. How does the VideoTextureReplacer entity work?

A. The AVI file must be the same size as the texture it replaces. Also, make sure that the codec the video is using is installed on your system.
The rfsplas.avi is 640x480 in size which is not a power of 2 and not the same size as the texture you tried to replace.
