UV animations?
Is there any way to have UV animations in-game?

as an example, I want to create something like active camouflage, so I want to have a semi-transparent texture that slowly moves across my character model.

*Can this be done via importing normal animations, if so, do these conflict with skeleton animations?

*Can this be done via custom/standard shaders?

Still the most ideal way would be changing the .mtrl file to include an UV animation. Could I request this as a new feature? As I did not found one topic on this untill now.

Thanks in forward

i think this can be done with custom shaders atleast.
i have done this with scrolling diffuse or something like that.
anyway camouflage would be best done with refraction.

Ok thanks for the answer, however is it not possible to edit/move the UV's via code?

I'm just an artist working with 2 friends on a little hobby/orientating project, nothing commercially yet, so we probably won't use custom shaders any time soon.
