i would second Ms. Violet's request. I am an attorney, and purple has
always been the color most closely associated with the law (or so my
first year property teacher told us). It would be nice to have purple
flowers as a choice. Thank you.

Couldn't you download the texture fix it yourself and then use the =
picture command on an animate2.rwx object?

Animates don't (or didn't) work on animate#.rwx objects. And it wouldn't
look like a regular flower anyway - would only be visible from one
angle, much like a picture object - which again would work (think create
animate me fw 1 1 0,picture myisp.com/~me/flo8b.jpg), but only visible
from one angle.

I agree. Animate does not work with URLs but flower8 is a fixed picture
using the flo8.jpg texture, so I don't think that that is relevant.

The one sided picture is a problem though. You can put two of them back to
back but you still have the problem of looking at the flower at an angle.

There is the "axisalignment zorienty" (thank you Eep) in rwx that makes an
object always face the viewer. I don't think there are any animate type
objects that have it though.

So maybe this has resolved into another wish. To allow builders the create
their own textures on objects that always face the viewer can we have a set
of animate??.rwx with the axisalignment zorienty line in them?

Stop the presses. I just downloaded the flower8.zip to check my facts

ModelBegin
ClumpBegin
AxisAlignment ZOrientY
Vertex -.05 0 0 UV 0 1
Vertex .05 0 0 UV 1 1
Vertex .05 .1 0 UV 1 0
Vertex -.05 .1 0 UV 0 0
TextureModes null
Texture flo8 mask flo8m
Quad 1 2 3 4
ClumpEnd
ModelEnd

It already has the "AxisAlignment ZOrientY" thingy so why doesn't it always
face the viewer.

OK I am out of my depth now. Would someone who knows what they are talking
about please take over.

Here is the deal: Flower, shrub, tree, and flame objects always face the
viewer. You can make little trees or big flowers this way, with some
create animate me's. However, they don't take picture URL's - in Alpha
at least, you're stuck with Alpha textures. Picture (pict#.rwx) and
animate (animate#.rwx) panels face one direction all the time, so
flowers on them look funny. However, they do take URL's, so you can put
any picture you want on them. For Violet's wish to come true, we'd need
either:

1) a new flow##.rwx object whose texture is a purple version of flower8.
2) picture objects that always face the viewer (animate with fw 1 1 0
and put any pic you want - purple flowers, orange shrubs, aquamarine
trees even!)

And I doubt COF are going to do #2 any time soon... after all your own
textures on objects is one of the main reasons to get a world :) So #1
is the easiest :)

You are right. I got confused.

Still wouldn't work because it wouldn't have a mask.

Although the Flow texture set, and the Flow object set are not on a one to
one correspondence, they would still seem to be the best sets to carry out
this idea.

First, and most important... Note that the Flow texture set is "very"
inclomplete. Last I checked, it consisted of three files as follows:
flow11.jpg
flow12.jpg
flow13.jpg
and of course, their corresponding mask files.
It should not be that hard to make color variations on the Flo texture set
(which is presently used on the Flower object set) to make the first nine
missing textures for the Flow set, as follows...
flo1.jpg --> flow1.jpg
flo2.jpg --> flow2.jpg
flo3.jpg --> flow3.jpg
flo4.jpg --> flow4.jpg
flo5.jpg --> flow5.jpg
flo6.jpg --> flow6.jpg
flo7.jpg --> flow7.jpg
flo8.jpg --> flow8.jpg
flo9.jpg --> flow9.jpg
and of course, copy the corresponding zipped mask files with no change, as
follows...
flo1m.zip --> flow1m.zip
flo2m.zip --> flow2m.zip
flo3m.zip --> flow3m.zip
flo4m.zip --> flow4m.zip
flo5m.zip --> flow5m.zip
flo6m.zip --> flow6m.zip
flo7m.zip --> flow7m.zip
flo8m.zip --> flow8m.zip
flo9m.zip --> flow9m.zip
Then just add a Flow10 texture (flow10.jpg and it's mask) for the remaining
flower, and if someone can get it uploaded (the unlikely part), then the
texture set is ready to use. The revised flower8.rwx could then be created
through normal building as follows:
Make a flower8.rwx object
and apply the following command to the Action field...
create animate me flow 13 1 0 8
.... and that's it.

Now, the second part would be quite optional, but would make it easier for
beginners to make more flowers.. that would be to make the corresponding
flow1.rwx through flow10.rwx objects, which would be designed to (by
default) display the flow1 through flow10 textures.

By the way.. I would like to see some purple flowers in Alpha World too.
