Is it possible to change the speed at which animated textures move?

I've built a water/lava room ,but the movement of the textures for these is a bit too fast for what i really what.

Although this isn't a total disaster i'd prefer to slow them down a bit.

Is there a way of editing the script or something for this?

Yes it is possible. The way to do this is add extra tiles to your tga. Select the tiles you want then add 2-3 of the same in a row. It would look like this:

Numbers equal texture tiles.

1122334455.....
instead of
12345......

I know thats a bit confusing but it hard to explain. You basically have to add the same tile so when they flip through it displays the same tile twice before the next one.

I have also heard but not tested the UVrotate=12 script command. But the adding tiles does work.

    Yes, the only problem is that it uses valuable texture squares. let us know if you find a better way.
