I would like to know if there is any possibilty to get my textures animated (like an animated gif). Or can I, for instance, use quicktime movies to use as texture? I haven't found any ingame spots where I can find info on this, neither have i found tutorials on the internet of how to make animated textures...yet
Can anyone help me on this?

thanks in advance
grtz

update:

so far I have only managed this:

default
{
state_entry()
{

llSetTextureAnim (SMOOTH | ANIM_ON | LOOP, ALL_SIDES, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0.1);
}
}


// but in that case, i need the whole sequence in one texture and can only be used with a certain type of texture.

If you have an animated .gif you want to convert, FlipperPA Peregrine has written a handy little web-based gadget that will do it all for you, automatically. You can find it here.

He also has a tutorial here that explains what is going on.

Hope this helps!
