Play Movie Texture.... more than once[SOLVED]
« on: March 13, 2014, 06:30:44 PM »
This feels like a really stupid question, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to play a movie texture twice in a row.  I have a gui button that triggers a state with the Play Movie Texture action (not looped).  I have the transition event set to FINISHED.  Then it hooks back into the play state.  The movie plays fine the first time and it returns to the original state and the button comes back, but it won't play the movie any more after that.  What am I missing?

I've looked at the script which has Finished(); at the end.  I've checked the forums and found one similar posting from a few years ago that didn't have a response.  I haven't been able to find any other posts that address this question.  I also looked at the Playmaker Examples>Test Lab>Material>Movie Texture project but that only shows how to play and pause, not play through then play again.

Thanks for your thoughts.

Hi,

 Can you double check that you indeed go back to the state that play it? maybe you are simply stuck in a state that doesn't transit at all.

bye,

I figured it out.  I put a Stop Movie Texture action in the second state right before the Play Movie Texture so the file resets every time.

Thanks for your response.
