Texture with green overlay

[AggrorJorn]

When I place a building on the scene, I want the model (with texture) to have a greenish color. When I can't build, it has to be red. Any idea how I can achieve this? I tried using PaintEntity, but then I can only color the mesh, and with a solid green color.

i dont understand... what else are you expecting to paint other than the mesh? if you are trying to paint a model, then you have to use the recursive parameter in the PaintEntity() to paint the child mesh...

 

require("Scripts/constants/engine_const")
RegisterAbstractPath("")	  
Graphics(800,600)	  
fw=CreateFramework()
fw.main.camera:SetPosition(Vec3(.5,1,-3))
drum1 = LoadModel("abstract::oildrum.gmf")
drum1:SetMass(0)
drum1:SetColor(Vec4(1,0,0,1),1)
drum2 = LoadModel("abstract::oildrum.gmf")
drum2:SetMass(0)
drum2:SetColor(Vec4(0,1,0,1),1)
drum2:SetPosition(Vec3(1,0,0))
while KeyHit(KEY_ESCAPE)==0 do	  
fw:Update()
fw:Render()
  Flip(1)
end

Thanks for the reply, Macklebee. Yes that is a bit a weird line.

 

What I was trying to say: instead of painting the entire model green, (and therefor, loosing its texture) give it a greenish color. Your program shows exactly what I need to do. Only thing left to figure out is how to set the recursive parameter with SetColor in C#. thanks again for the help.
