Water That Moves on a Schedule

The Animated Shader Set

A new ShaderAnimationSystem implementing the directives that make idTech3 water look like water:

tcMod scroll     tcMod scale      tcMod rotate
tcMod stretch    tcMod turb
rgbGen wave      alphaGen wave

With all seven Quake wave functions behind them: sin, triangle, square, sawtooth, inversesawtooth, noise.

Commands: shader anim status|pause|resume|toggle|speed <n>|clear. Verified on wdm11 water, which is the correct place to verify water.

The Feature That Did Not Ship

Q3NodeMaterialBuilder.ts was written — replace, blend, add and multiply/filter blend modes with per-stage UV offset inputs — and then:

Currently disabled - broke transparency and animation, needs more work

Multi-stage node materials stayed off in this release. The design lives in docs/TCMOD_ANIMATION_PLAN.md.

Known Limitations

• ▸Single-stage animation only (multi-stage NodeMaterial disabled).
• ▸Turbulence is simplified oscillation, not true vertex distortion.
• ▸No support for: tcGen, deformVertexes, animMap, fogParms.

fogParms is worth noting because v0.8.8 goes and reads the fog lump directly instead, and deformVertexes turns up again in v0.8.10 for autosprites.
