Animated Textures Using Controller Scripts
dancingshoes:
Here's a program that automatically creates an an8 file for animating a texture using a sequence of still images per Raxx's design. Setup only involves selecting, in Anim8or, the first texture file in an animation sequence, naming the texture, and then running this program which creates a new, animated An8 file. See the readme for details.
It's not as versatile as Raxx's but it is a no brainer to use. It can handle looped and unlooped sequences.
Like everything, it's experimental. If it works for you, great.
(I believe there's an error in Raxx's script that may have caused my earlier problems: it doesn't seem to handle the numbering of the 0th image properly. It adds an extra '0' (????) making the 0th texture unfindable.)

Thanks - looks like you've been busy!
I've got Raxx's script working well in my project. At the moment I've only got one animated texture in my project but I l really like the effect so I'd like to squeeze in some others. In my scene I wanted "clutter" and it's taking ages to model all the stuff so not sure if I'll have time.
I will try it out, thanks for the hard work :)

For the life of me, I can't get this script to work. Maybe I'm not understanding the step by step instructions? I just doesn't do anything. Also, the ANI_setup spits out an error, Line 54
Error: Error in expression
AlecJames:
I made an example in this thread https://www.anim8or.com/smf/index.php/topic,5728.msg43026.html#msg43026
I just tested it on version 1393 and it worked (I saw the splash in scene mode), if you want to test it, copy the zip contents (use v2) to c:\temp\ because I have some hard coded paths.
What do you have in your script on line 54?
bayinghound:
I was using the generator to create the animated texture, but it didn't work and that error kept popping up. I'll try your example. Thanks.
