Alright I have tried my best, but I cannot get this to work. I have a 8x8 grid map that I want to be animated on a plane. I can get it to play like a "flim strip" where it looks it has been set on a linear offset. I have been able to get it to play 4 of the 64 frames, then it starts over. I have been using these two codes.

Type:Grid
FPS=32.6

Thats for the frame by frame animation

Type:Grid
FPS=32.6
Log2Width=8

And I get the linear offset effect

Anyone have anyideas what I am doing wrong?

Try putting Log2Width=8 before FPS.

If it continues to cause problems, unwrap the faces to the first frame of animation and view it again.

It is still doing it, but now after every row it moves slightly down.

Change the Log2Width variable from 8 to 6 and further down as dictated by the power of 2.

Well the animation plays now, but it skips some rows. I will jsut work on this some other time.

Make Sure that it follow the right grid
It can only be in a 2x2 , 4x4 , 8,8 i don't believe 6x6 will work.
just make sure the grid texture is basically a simple square, not a rectangle.
it takes time to get grid to work. Razz

There is a serious bug with Grid mapping. It will translate horizontally 3 rows, then translate vertically when it's not supposed to. This is why only one row out of 4 will work properly on all grid maps (such as the Water Caustic grid.)
