Animating GUI

[superdupercoolguy]

How would you make a GUI that animates without GIFs? like videos and stuff.

There's a GUI control, I believe it's AVIControl or something that allows you to play videos, but it's a bad thing to use generally because it doesn't care what it's parented to. As in, if you make it on another window, it won't move with the window.

I don't think that control works at all. Just use a bitmap control and have it change the image shown a couple times pet second

It is called GuiAnimatedBitmapCtrl.

The code below is taken from GUI Replacer.

Code: [Select]

new GuiAnimatedBitmapCtrl() {
profile = "WSG_DefaultProfile";
horizSizing = "center";
vertSizing = "bottom";
position = "50 0";
extent = "382 182";
minExtent = "8 2";
visible = "1";
bitmap = "Add-Ons/System_GuiReplacer/ui/GUIReplacerLogoAni";
wrap = "0";
lockAspectRatio = "1";
alignLeft = "0";
overflowImage = "0";
keepCached = "0";
framesPerSecond = "15";
numFrames = "94";
skipFrames = "0";
};

For that I'd assume you're making an image for each frame and naming them like, GUIReplacerLogoAni1, GUIReplacerLogoAni2, etc, and set numFrames to whatever the amount of animages you have is.
