Bullet Holes

How would you make a bullet hole appear on an object. I have code that creates a bullet that disappears when it hits an object or the terrain, but I want to create a bullet hole texture on the location it hits.

Well, you could splat the target texture or you could just have a bullet hole mesh that you affix to the mesh you just shot.

What do you mean splat the texture?

I tried creating a sphere at the point where the bullet collides with an object but nothing happens. I even tried slowing down the bullet.

heres some code that uses the align to vector example but uses sprites.

Function updatebul()
For c.char= Each char
 For e.enemy= Each enemy
  For b.bullet= Each bullet

   MoveEntity b\e,0,0,4

   If EntityCollided( b\e,enem ) ;if it collides with an
     e\hp=e\hp-Rnd(10)           ;enemy delete the bullet
     x20=x20+1                   ;and make it lose health
   End If

   If EntityCollided(b\e,worldC) ;if it hits a world object
     h.sprite=New sprite         ;create a sprite at the 
     h\e=CopyEntity(holesp)      ;coordanates picked by a
     h\x=p_x                     ;pick cammand
     h\y=p_y
     h\z=p_z
     AlignToVector h\e,-PickedNX(),-PickedNY(),-PickedN(),3
     PositionEntity h\e,h\x,h\y,h\z
     SpriteViewMode h\e,2 ;makes it not face camera
     FreeEntity b\e
     Delete b
  Else If b\z>100  ;if the bullet goes to far delete the 
    Delete b       ;bullet
    FreeEntity b\e
  End If

  Next
 Next
Next

End Function

Thanks!
