How do you set it in the vmt so that the texture is visible on both sides of a face, like the texture for the func_breakable_surface glass texture


PS. Found this in the post: <html><head><link rel="stylesheet" href="themes/standard.css" type="text/css"></head><body topmargin=2 leftmargin=2>

It also set the font colour to black

i think what you're looking for is $nocull 1 added to the vmt. also handy for foliage.

if you're tinkering with glass, you might be interested in this. it looks interesting, but i've not had time to try it out yet, so i don't know how complicated it is.

Well, simpler solution might be to make 2 cubes beside each other, and make all sides nodraw excep the ones facing each other? Kinda hard to explain..

HazardGameR^, that face would get discarded unless you tie both brushes to a different entity. fishy's solution is easiest.

And Guessmyname, I'm getting that post problem as well for some time now, all kinds of html already in the post, in a black color... happens only in FireFox to me though... smiley

Hazardgamer and Captain P, it's a javascript incompatability problem with FireFox 1.5

To fix it you have to go into your SnarkPit Control Panel then go to Preferences and turn off the javascript features. It will fix the posting dialogue problem you're getting.

You're welcome <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif"> I was having the same difficulties earlier, and ReNo sorted me out in the bugs thread.
