Help with GIFs in RAGS

PostPosted: Fri, 16Oct28 22:17

Question for those of you with experience making games in RAGS. Does anyone know how to make GIFs continually loop in the player? I would love for the GIFs to continually loop until the 'continue' button is pushed, or another picture populates.

Thanks.

Not personally tried looping gifs, If you are a member of Hypnopics try PMing Rrod424 (creator of Evil Inc) he has gifs that loop.

If you are still wondering, the way I do it in my game is like this:

I use layered images to call up the gif, instead of display media (otherwise the animation doesn't play), and instead of using "pause" I use "variable set by user input >>> custom" so that the game uses the overlay menu to display options (if you use "pause" it freezes the animation, but if you are picking a choice, the gif keeps playing).
