View Full Version : Random falling photos textures...?

So I read this thread (http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?f=5&t=481963) on CGTalk and was going to suggest my normal slew of hacks and workarounds, when I recalled a plugin someone made here that did almost exactly what the poster was asking.

It was something relating to a bunch of falling photos or boxes and each box/photo needed to move randomly and be mapped uniquely. The solution someone came up with was a custom plugin that swapped textures for clones or something? It wasn't nodal, it was an lscript or plugin I believe.

Anyone remember the plugin or thread I'm talking about? I can't seem to find it in a search.

(Please note that I'm not asking how to do this with FX_Linker, FX_Dynamic_Linker, or HV's. I'm not asking for any workarounds. Cheers!)

Jeremy,

Was it maybe Dodgy's ImagesToPlanes plugin?

Haven't used it yet myself. Hope this helps. Take care...MG

Sounds like you do need my plugin :)
Knew it would be useful to someone apart from me!

Dodgy...what's up with ghostoutpost.com? Says hosting has expired or something. Considering The spread and your site are both there...we really need to get something sorted for us Lscripters!!
