UDK Need help with Offsetting Texture

Wonkey · Apr 2012

I have a texture of windows, an example should be below. I am trying to be able to create material instances (in udk) to switch between the different windows by offsetting the texture, like in Max. I thought this would be stupid easy, but have a feeling I am just missing the easy part.

I thought I could use panner to tell it to go .25 of the texture to the next, .5, .75, and hopefully you get the idea. Panner just scrolls the texture continuously.

Any ideas that would point me in the right direction?

just add a constant or parameter to your texture, so 1 scalar for your x and one for your y, then append them and add to the texture coord.

Thank you Naked Chicken! Add! I knew it was stupid easy, lol. Got stuck with multiple for scaling and I didn't even consider add.

No worries, I can think of more user friendly ways to set it up if you're spreading the material around to other people but this is definitely the simplest way.

And I appologize JordanW you Answered first, thank you for your help.

I would set it up like this:

Then your instance that you send out could work like this:

Makes it so your end user only has to worry about one button to cycle through all the windows.
