DOH! forgot about that. I was trying to save space by using patches that
moved from the bottom to the top of the texture as the animation progressed.
I can turn it into single-patch textures, at the cost of tripling the space
consumption of the waterfall graphics. Pity patch offsets can't be negative.
The only contradiction is that GSTFONT* were definitely not working on the
normal of a shoot-through linedef in my tests. They are certainly 1-patch
textures.

Well, empirically, because it doesn't move. It only shows the first frame
of the animation.

Yea, thats what I figured, I re-entered it into doom as a power of two
and it works fine.

Hey, I only asked Ted once and he turned me down politely. I'm only an
ETA nudge. But 'as soon as it is finished' should satisfy me till it's
released. :)

Can you shoot through your steam animation?

Hmm...this must be where the witticisms go. Maybe I can copy Kibo's?
