Two possible ways I would do...


1:

1. Just get the bytes of a .gif.
2. Draw it like any other sprite.

2:

1. Get the bytes of multiple images.
2. Then just draw one.
* Sleep...
3. Get rid of that image.
4. Draw the next image.
*And then so on...


Overall I suggest option 1!

From what i saw it seems to be only moving the texture,

but my way is different. it is for if ur using more than 1 pictures how u say, like a '*.gif' file .

those file are images with timers, that

at thise time. show this image. few mili sec it will show a different picture.

I am just re creating the effect in D3D.

my ways are some what buggy i kno.

Massive waste of memory. Massive overhead.

Create a D3DX Texture from file for all frames of your animation and draw your sprite with sequential textures.

There should be a better way, but it will not lag at all.

Why is DX[T] censored?

Apparently thats a MPGH competitor - DX(T)Gaming. So they decided to censor it without thinking .

I'm sure it's possible but will lag like a drunk bitch in a dark room.

Your amazing method 1 doesn't work. /:

Sorry to break it to you. DirectX just doesn't work that way.

You can't use a .gif

Use Gordon`'s link, that will work fine.

Topblast, you are incorrect. I also need to mention that your signature is clownish.
