## Whats on this page?
|
|
|
|
From this page you will learn how to make an animated texture for an entity. Animated, like a flipbook texture for blocks.
|

## Source

This page is based on content by [AgentMindStorm](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-ljddYkFdTQl-MVEaVvbuQ).

## Textures
|
|
|
|
First let's draw some new texture frames for our entity. In this tutorial it will be a cow, which is looking around.
|
|
|
|
<WikiImage
|
|
src="/assets/images/visuals/animated-entity-texture/cow.png"
|
|
alt="cow"
|
|
pixelated="false"
|
|
width=180
|
|
/>
|
|
|
|
We need to place our textures vertically, like for blocks in flipbook textures.
|
|
In this case we have 4 frames.
|
|
|
|
## Materials
|
|
|
|
We will need to modify materials in this guide. However due to render dragon materials became outdated, so **use it at your own risk**.
|
|
|
|
To use animated texture, we need to change the entity material to one, that has `USE_UV_ANIM` property.
|
|
Let's simply add a new material:
|
|
|
|
<CodeHeader>RP/materials/entity.material</CodeHeader>
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"materials":{
|
|
"version":"1.0.0",
|
|
"custom_animated:entity":{
|
|
"+defines":[
|
|
"USE_UV_ANIM"
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or you can add this to existing ones, check default material file.
|
|
|
|
<CodeHeader></CodeHeader>
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
"+defines":[
|
|
"USE_UV_ANIM"
|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
:::warning
|
|
It is not that easy for every entity!
|
|
Some entities have multiple materials and if you want to make its texture animated, you will need to add this property to all materials of this entity.
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Client Entity File
|
|
|
|
Before we go next, we need to define a new material in our client entity file.
|
|
|
|
<CodeHeader>RP/entity/cow.json#description</CodeHeader>
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
"materials": {
|
|
"default": "custom_animated"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Render Controllers
|
|
|
|
After that all, we need to edit a render controller.
|
|
|
|
Here we will add `uv_anim` component with offset and scale properties:
|
|
|
|
<CodeHeader>RP/render_controllers/cow.render_controllers.json#controller.render.cow</CodeHeader>
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
"uv_anim": {
|
|
"offset": [ 0.0, "math.mod(math.floor(q.life_time * frames_per_second),frame_count) / frame_count" ],
|
|
"scale": [ 1.0, "1 / frame_count" ]
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Where `frames_per_second` is a count of frames you want to change in one second and `frame_count` is a total frame count.
|
|
This formula calculates the offset and the size of the texture depending on life time.
|
|
|
|
## Testing
|
|
|
|
Now, it is time to test your creation!
