Double sided faces or materials

[Aba]

Does Source support them and if so how are they implemented?
Can double-sidedness be defined with a map?
Is there a tutorial somewhere?
Thanks

Doesnt it copy what ever is on one side to the other side? If so all you have to do is make some sort of ramp connceting the two sides. Im not sure though.

On a model is it possible to specify which faces are double sided and which are single sided?

 

[Barnz]

No, that's not possible.

Oh god your avatar makes that post very lol.

"No, that's not possible" said Dr.Mullins very sternly, as his face rapidly strobed a variety of colors.

It applies to the whole texture though and the other side won't be lit correctly if used on a 3D model. But you can apply a seperate texture for a specific area with "$nocull 1" . so it is possible.

is this for a tree?


cause it's probably easier to copy the faces needed to be double sided then flipping the normals
