This is my effect for some PAP related monitors, you can change the name. place it in raw/fx.

download these and extract to root directory

make a .gif or download one.

Create a custom image and name it

gfx_ad_fanta_1

because I am using an fx from bbf2 to skip a lot of steps.

make it have 8 by 8 images and an overall size of 128x128.



you now have an fx that plays a .gif

wow there's no words to explain how awsome this is 

but you should add to the tut these sites:
https://imgflip.com/gifgenerator
http://www.bottomap.com/Software/A4B/A4B.html

so people can turn any video they have into a gif and then make the rows with that program 

I'll definitely use this when I'm further with my map.

Here's a template for Photoshop users that I made

this help a lot thanks

I must be doing something wrong here because I cant get any .gifs to work right. They just seem to scroll through the tiled picture I create when I view them in assman and in game. Here are the steps I'm taking please let me know what I'm doing wrong.
1. I download the above files and copied them correctly then i downloaded a .gif

2. I use Avi4Bmp to convert the gif to an image, the gif started out 10 x 10 but didnt work so I tried 8 x 8 and still didnt work.

3. I opened the image in photoshop and saved it as gfx_ad_fanta_1.dds then converted it in Assman which wouldnt convert unless i resized the image in photoshop to a power of 2. so I tried 128x128

4. Then I copied the raw folder from the download above to my root again to overwrite the materials.

5. I opened up effects editor and played the fx but it just scrolls through the image or is lagging and pix elated 

make the texture 1024x1024 lol and inside the picture you must place each frame of the gif in a grid of 128x128 like on yei's example

haha duh I dont know what I was thinking. Works good now thank you
