[Mod Request] Animation for dice at all time (spritesheet)

[dimetequiero]

So I created some dices, and would love to do crazier stuff.

 

The idea is to make it so when the game is showing a dice face, instead of using a "still" image, it plays an animation, like it does when rolling and when a face number appears.

 

How it could be done would be something like using the "dice face" animation, instead of a zone of the D20, explained with images (I'll be using my dice pngs as I have them at hand):

 

Now, when showing a face, it does this, both when you first see the dice and if a number 20 appears after the roll and after the bounce animations:

 

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 

 

 

 

 

And from this image called d20.DDS, picks and stays with that section of this image. What could be doing instead is taking the d20_20.DDS, that contains a sprite sheet animation of the dice bouncing and play it in a loop (video that is a sequence of images in a single file):

 

 

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 

 

 

 

 

That would be incredible as it would allow for, electric, magic, fire, smoke, watery etc etc etc... dices with animations! Sure the "bounce" would disappear, but it would be a small price to pay for the luxury of it!

 

If instead of using the d20_20 or d20_19 or whatever bounce animation, it used a different new folder/file would also be nice (or nicer), but would be more complicated for dice modders to "correctly" animate both sprite sheets differently.

 

Here's a 2min tuto on how to animate dice rolls, that if you don't know how that works it will clarify things.

 

Anyhow, thanks for reading! Hope someone can do this :D
