Different wall picture for each side?
Different wall picture for each side?
I was just wondering if there was anyway to have a movie pack that had a different png for each wall? If not can it be added?

Re: Different wall picture for each side?
Yes. But, it's a teeny bit complicated. The four images will follow each other in order, then wrap around and start again when there is more rim wall to fill. If the grid changes size, the textures will either wrap or get cut off.
Now, since the textures don't automatically stretch to fill the entire side of one wall, you'll have to stretch them manually. The two settings:
MOVIEPACK_RIM_WALL_STRETCH_X
MOVIEPACK_RIM_WALL_STRETCH_Y
...decide how much space the wall will use. So, an arena size of 0 means the the values above should be set to 500. But, I can't tell you and values for the other sizes because I'm too lazy to figure it out. I'm sure someone else knows the math and they'll be along in a second with the answer.

So when I go into textures should i name every .png rim_wall.png, then it will wrap around?

Re: Different wall picture for each side?
Just to be sure you got it: You'll want to use the moviepack, not the textures. So that would be rim_wall_[a,b,c,d,].png.
And of course, you'll want to choose images that look good stretched, because they're really gonna be stretched. Well, if you can figure the math maybe you could make the source texture squeezed horizontally so that the aspect ratio will be correct when it gets stretched. But then you'd have to deal with resolution and interpolation. And, of course, each server is going to be different. So.
