$texture2

• Used for the UnlitTwoTexture shader.
• Compare to $basetexture2

VMT syntax

"UnlitTwoTexture"
{
   "$basetexture" "Path/TextureA" 
   "$texture2" "Path/TextureB" 
      "$texture2transform" "center .5 .5 scale 1 1 rotate 0 translate 0 0"
      "$texture2scale" 1.0
}

Additional Parameters

$texture2transform

$texture2transform <>

The default position is center .5 .5 scale 1 1 rotate 0 translate 0 0.

1. center defines the point of rotation. Only useful if rotate is being used.
2. scale fits the texture into the material the given number of times. 2 1 is a 50% scale in the horizontal X axis while the vertical Y axis is still at original scale.
3. rotate rotates the texture counter-clockwise in degrees. Accepts any number, including negatives.
4. translate shifts the texture by the given numbers. .5 will shift it half-way. 1 will shift it once completely over, which is the same as not moving it at all.

Note:All values must be included!

Bug:Scaling the texture may cause odd issues where the Texture Lock tool in Hammer will not actually lock the texture in place.  [todo tested in?]

Bug:Rotating textures applied on brushes will rotate around the map origin (confirm: Orangebox engine only?). A fix for this is to change the center position in the VMT to the brush's origin.  [todo tested in?]
