maybe....maybe not......

Depends on whether you can get the player texture to animate(.gif)

You have to add the textures that form the animation to the actor and use an ActMaterial entity. The entry in the material.ini file would have to look like this:

Code: Select all

[ani0]
material=material0

[ani1]
material=material1

[ani2]
material=material2

[ani3]
material=material3

Doesn't the flipbook entity with Player as 'EntityName' work too? Just a suggestion.

No, this would only place a Flipbook in the level that moves with the player actor. It would not affect the actor's textures.

What do you mean?

It does work. You have to tell the actor to change the material with a script or an ActMaterial entity.
