    Basicly it's just an animated texture done with the TexOscillator in the materials editor.........

    Even plants can be made look moving as if the wind is blowing it......


    Study AS-Convoy..........you will learn alot form that map.....

    from what i've seen of the tank treads, it's a clever use of a VariableTexPanner, a motion effect for textures. check the vehicle code for details on its implementation:

    ONSHoverTank.uc, look into the function SetupTreads()
