Working on a new level with some tree models. I would like to apply a sine proxy to get the leaf textures "swaying". I've applied a scrolling material proxy to the ice texture in dod_flurry, so I have a basic understanding.

There is a page at the Valve Wiki re: proxies:

http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Material_Proxies

This is my current .vmt that does not work:

"VertexLitGeneric"
{
"$baseTexture" "models\mytreemodel"
"$alphatest" 1
"$nocull" 1

"Proxies"
{
"Sine"
{
"resultVar" "$baseTextureTransform"
"sineperiod" 8
"sinemin" 0
"sinemax" 1
}
}
}
If anyone has some insight on this it would be greatly appreciated !

I don't think you can use sineperiod, sinemin, sinemax with a baseTextureTransform.

AFAIK, you'll have to apply the sine results to a variable that will be reused on a TextureTransform...

Thanks Dash ! I realized that the shoreline overlay in Anzio uses a sine proxy! So I altered it slightly to my nds and came up with this, which does work !:

"VertexLitGeneric"
{
"$basetexture" "models\mytreeleaftexture"
"$alphatest" 1
"$nocull" 1

// VARS

"$ScrollRateResult" 1


"Proxies"
{
"Sine"
{
"resultVar" "$ScrollRateResult"
"sineperiod" 8
"sinemin" .0002
"sinemax" .002
}

"TextureScroll"
{
"texturescrollvar" "$basetexturetransform"
"texturescrollrate" .002
"texturescrollangle" 90
}



}

}

Hopefully this will help someone else down the road !
