gifs in-game

[AdinX]

Is it possible for a decal / face / print to be a gif? for instance, could my avatar become a face?
To my understanding it couldn't, namely because of that fact that all of the decals / faces are .PNGs...

Food for thought, I think it'd be kinda cool if that COULD work. Or it would just be abusive, that works too.

The closest you'll get to this is a GuiAnimatedBitmapCtrl object, which doesn't read gifs and instead reads multiple .png files like :

loadRing_00
loadRing_01
loadRing_02
loadRing_03
loadRing_04


And in the GUI editor the "bitmap" should be set to (whatever path)/loadRing

What you are asking for isn't possible in a very efficient manner. However, people have done it before by having many texture files and then just switching the decals extremely quickly.

If your a good scripter you can make about 10 Faces and make it almost like the funky shirt mod where it shifts through colors but this one will shift through the faces at a fast enough speed to make it look animated.

Search up wink mod, it's just the default face blinking.

Search up wink mod, it's just the default face blinking.

It requires a server-side mod.

Yea like the shirt mod, except people with the anti-rainbow server script will kick you for sending too many avatar change requests.

There should also be an output event based on that and/or a mod that works similarly to the Chat emote.

I did something like this but it uses events.
