Radial Loop texture animation in 3DS Max

johnjaeger

Hi guys!
I'm working on 3DS Max, with Standard renderer due the engine limitations we use at work.

Is it possible to animate a texture like this in 3DS Max?


Thanks a lot!

Yeah, you can use a Cone primitive, and set the height really low (but not zero). This will give you a circle with circular UVs. Then you just animate the V Offset on the noise texture. It helps if the noise texture is tiled. You can make it brighter by increasing the Output Amount in the bitmap. Good luck!
