Texture Properties
Shows properties for a Texture (UT). Multiple instances of this window can be opened by right-clicking a texture in the Texture Browser.

Note: This page contains the properties of UT textures. See Texture for the list of properties available for UT2003 textures.
Properties
Animation
- AnimNext
- Next texture in an animated texture sequence.
- PrimeCount
- Number of frames that are pre-rendered before the texture is displayed the first time; that's useful for dynamic textures that need to "build up" at startup (FireTextures, for instance).
- MinFrameRate, MaxFrameRate
- Frame rate for animated textures. These two properties specify the range of possible frame rates the engine can choose from; it attempts to automatically select an animation frame rate to minimize aliasing artefacts which lead to the effect of a texture animation not looking smooth. (If you want to enforce a particular frame rate, set both properties to the same value.) If set to zero, the animation is played with the user's game frame rate.

Discussion
Xian: Is HitSound actually working ? I assigned a sound to a texture from teh editor, saved the texture package etc., but as I shot it, no sound came out (and yes, as yo uexpected, I mean UE1). So there are 2 situations, I didn't do something (or did it wrong), or it isn't implemented in UE1. If anyone succeeded at doing this, I'd appreciate some feedback.
Xian: Hmm... upon further tests, a texture that had a footstep sound reacted to it being shot and playing the footstep sound (which didn't sound as bad). But setting footstep sounds didn't apply to all textures... strange
