I got a texture animation script going, needed the texture to pan across the object, but I noticed that it can only move about the X axis of the object, but i need it to move across the Y, like say, having the texture pan across the sides of a cylinder rather than up or down.
Any help would be appriciated.

I was doing a waterfall animation like this. Seems like the orientation of the texture was also important. Not sure...maybe I was just missing something.

A vertical texture like this didn't work for me. (with the water flowing top to bottom)

but a horizontal texture did. (with the water flowing left to right)

Now this brings to mind a question...
I needed to set a different animation direction on either side of a prim, but couldn't get it to stick... as soon as I set the second side, the first side stopped moving. Is this an inherent problem, or was I just doing it wrong?

Also, only one animation can be run per object, although all sides of an object can be animated.

Hope this helps
