Rendering animated decals... getting tons of artifacts...

[Dascurf]

How do I solve this problem?

What kind of animated decals are you using (TGA sequence, Quicktime video etc)? And which A:M version are you using?

I am using an .avi

 

I am using A:M ver.15

What kind of artifacting, and what is the specific circumstance?

 

I assume you are using the .avi as a decal, and getting artifacting in the decal. I just yesterday encountered a similar issue with decals that are static tgas, but have animated enforcement values. I haven't had time to check it and figure out where the problem lies.

 

You might try a little troubleshooting, everything you know is or is not related to the problem helps.

 

Steps to try:

 

use a tga sequence insted of an avi.

 

Slap the same animated texture on another object and see if the same thing happens.

 

See if it happens with both multipass and the A-buffer renderer

 

And if you can post a sample of the problem and your project to the forum.

Thanks guys. I will try .tga and see what happens.
