Hey all! Lovely day outside – but even better for staying indoors and going bloodshot in front of a monitor.
Speaking of monitors, I’m interested in using the Media Framework stuff to apply a video to my materials. I know how to get that far already. But I have a problem making instances of said material.
Ordinarily I would set the Texture Object as a parameter and presto, but as you can see, the editor doesn’t take this suggestion kindly when it comes to video textures. I tried a few of the other parameter options and didn’t get anyway, and I can’t find anything online about this.
I plan on having dozens of in-game screens playing at once, each with a different video. I could make an individual material for every video, but I heard it’s significantly less costly to use instancing instead.
So, any advice would be appreciated.
