Question

I am working on Unity + Augmented reality. I want to show some "animated .gif" file on specific location on Marker detection event. I manage all but, I wanna display .gif animation at specific location on Android screen. But I think

Unity does not support .gif

and

Android does not support VideoTexture.

Answer 1

Unity not support Gif.

You have 2 options:

1. Split animation and use Animator: there you have a nice howto

2. Save individual frames and make an array of textures.

   var frames : Texture[]; var framesPerSecond = 10;

   function Update() { var index : int = (Time.time * framesPerSecond) % frames.Length; renderer.material.mainTexture = frames[index]; }
