How do I add sprites like little clumps of grass on the ground that you can walk though, like de_aztec. How do I add these and other sprites in my maps?

Also, how can I properly create a rotating entity? I just don't know what to put in it's properties to make it work right. I already made the origin tool in the middle of the entity, and tied it to a func_rotating, but not sure on what to put in it's properties.

for the grass, just find a good little texture and make an X out of it kinda and make it func_illusionary... oh and render mode: textured and render fx 255 i think too

i think roating might be in the sticky

and func_rotating

For the func_rotating, you need to but an origin brush where you want the entity to rotate around.

Alright I got the grass and the roating thing working great now, but how do I make a solid floor flashing different color lights? Like the dance floor in Club Cherryclan.

That's an animated texture that flashes the different colors, and I think it uses some texture lighting? (I don't know anything about texture lighting)

Use an animated textue on a func_wall and choose rendermode additive, fx amount, well I don't know about fx ammount you will have to play with that one.

At least I think that is how you do it.

it involves having several textures with the same name, only something like +1 +2 etc infront of each one.

i'm not completely sure, cos i've never used them, but basically, its something like...

take the animated sequence/different coloured textures, give them all the same name, except, first texture in sequence you put something like a +1 infront of it then get the second texture and out something like a +2 infront of it, then you throw them into wally like any other texture, and you texture whatever you want to flash with the +1 texture.

i might not be 100% on that, so check up on it

You actually start with +0, and I'm pretty sure you can't go higher than +9. I don't think it matters which one you use when texturing though i.e. using +0 would be the same as using +4 would be the same as using +9
