  • 1.  Image and Video materials in Visual Logic

    So, kinda surprised this one isnt in there.

    Whenver you create a material, the shader for ambient, diffuse, emissive and specular can be set through visual logic.

    If you add a layer of image or video on top, you can in the material editor assign an image URL or a video URL. That's all fine. Below it you can even add a datalinq for THAT material to use.

    Now, I would very much like to be able to change the URL of the source image/video through visual logic as well. It's not a MAJOR thing, and I can definetly work around it in DashBoard, as that is my main source into DataLinq, but being able to set the URL of the image/video through visual logic would've been great.

    And, yes, I've check... it's not in the list of things to change under the video shader in Visual Logic, as of version 8.5 at least.

    Hey Alex,

    There is no way in VL to convert a string to a [material] tag.

    I'll send this off to our devs. But no promises

    Yeah I was afraid of that...
    Ohh well, I can allways get a workaround with DashBoard so no big deal!
    It's just an extra parameter to send over. But again, no problem really...

    Thanks anyways for the answer!
