worldpositionoffest rotation

[A Rabbit]

I toyed with this idea for a while, i think it may be possible. At least I got the foliage to rotate when the player rotated just never got it to sync properly.

I used unreal script to change the foliages materials variables, try looking at my vertex shader to get a better idea how to modify the variables.

all of those suggestions would work but then I wouldnt be able to use them with a foliage system. Is there anywhere (possibly another forum) that might be better explain the worldpositionoffset and the rotateaboutaxis instruction in greater detail? The UDN didnt really help very much

Why not just use particle sprites? you could create a clump of them even and use a UV offset to show different plants/foliage.

so no thoughts on this?

So Im trying to make a material that I can apply to a basic card mesh that will make the mesh rotate around always facing the camera. The card has a small plant texture that Im using as part of my foliage so it basically just needs to always face the player camera.

I think this is done using worldpositionoffset and Ive found the rotateaboutaxis instruction. Is there a tutorial on this or has anyone tried to do it? If there is a better way to accomplish the desired effect like in the mesh somewhere that will work too.
