Explosive Barrels

Found a way to GREATLY optimize the model. Adds 12 polygons to it - but removes the need to copy over the gloss, normal map ect for each frame.
Basically copy the glowing parts of mesh (adding 12 polygons - 2 for each square) and applying a invisible texture over that will be invisible (called box_top_null_x - x being a number of frame) and it will be 8x8 in size. Now take our glow textures and rename to box_top_null_x_glow) this will allow us to apply the glow without copying over the full sized diffuse, normal, gloss maps

hi ooppee,
have you a link to this new version? I think the 1st post still refers to the old version, no?

Haven't had time to do it (tried the concept on my grunt and it worked - not using on grunt though). Should take a hour tops once I start it. Ill likely do this week
