Animated GIF Textures

The material system supports both video clips and flipping between images in sequence; they just haven't been used much, but see e.g.

I might be fixated, but it sounds like a good use case for a custom material shader.

I could help writing it if provided the assets.

Not excited about the gif idea though.

You don't need gif and performance-heavy frame-by frame image sequences to make such animations. You can scroll images to do that. Typically, you do tha with normalmaps and specular maps.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll let you know Duzenko when I get to that part of the map. This came up in conversation in Discord

so I wanted to find out of it's possible. Now I know it is, I can make plans accordingly.
