Glass panels?
Quote from DrummerB on May 9, 2011, 10:33 amAs I said, my problem is not making a moving panel. I have it working with a normal metal brush. I was looking for a way to make it see-through, like the panels in the Glados fight scene. The panels they use there are made specifically for that level. They're not using the arm64x64 model I'm using. The only glass textures I could find look ugly on an arm. Anyway, I'll just keep using metal ones if there is no better solution.

And as it is a model, you can't use it's materials on a brush without some strange things happening.
So I don't know what to tell you. You could always extract the texture for that model and make your own material that can be applied to brushes, and use that on your arm prop walkway.

I can't recal the name exactly, but it looks like it's built on a piston (and for some reason has, off all things,walking animations...lol)

I want to know, how to make those 64x64 glass-panels, seen in coop
