any suggestion on how to draw some big ventilation fans that spin?

You could make a rotating texture.

Add

tcMod rotate 360

at some point in the shader for the texture and it will rotate, I hope. Haven't tried it, but it says so in the manual.

If you refer to the actual drawing of the texture I wouldn't know where to begin. Go you and find a nice one and take a photo of it. Then you have something to start with. Or search the net, a search.

That tutorial is out of date because you can set the fan to rotate right in the properties of the Script_object fan. The following tutorial map is for a ceiling fan. Just change the axis of rotation to Z or X for your wall fan. The speed of the fan is set by the value number.

The ".map" file is included in the zip.
