I want a spinning fan blade, so i used the fan blade texture on a circular plane, i then set it to rotate, but it rotates form the corner, so a it desent spin but it moves the whole texture.
does that make any sense?
also how can i make a texture cast a shadow, like the fan blades in the refinery in the levels?

I'm guessing make a real tiled object and have somesort of a spotlight shining down on it.

but will it reconize the clear parts or will it see the whole plane as a shadow caster?

BTW for your object you textured, you don't rotate the texture, but rather the object that is textured.

You'd have to make a shape that is a shadow-caster. It is just like an outline of the fan. But make it's properties collisions: projectile, physical. Which means you make the object, texture it to be black I suppose. Then rotate it so it does one period. And then the light that shines on it will be similar to that of a character onto the ground. Does that make sense?
