[Tutorial] How to use Animated Pictures in Turing
-----------------------------------
hey ya'al
This little subprogram is used to display animated pictures in your programs. As you know turing yet doesn't support .GIF. (D'ooooh)

So basicly you can simply break your SWF or your GIF animations into their frames and save them as either .BMP or .JPG or etc. with free programs available on net. 

Notice that when you save the frames the order of them is in their names for example horse001.jpg , horse002.jpg , horse003.jpg ....

so basicly you can open my program and then i have comments in it.

There are 76 frames for that GIF animation ,, you can also view the single Horse.Gif..

The program is able to read the framed images that you would personally include so the horses are just sample except if you change the extention of framed images to .bmp you gotta change the variable in the source from .jpg to .bmp

Also you might want to change the directory location of images otherwise include them in the same directory as the program and there would be no need for location.

To change the speed at which you see the Animation, change the miliseconds variable. 

otherwise i made the program somehow that it detects the rest of the stuff like how many images there are and to only detect .jpg format and etc.

PS Y'all. =) Enjoy!

good tip!  I believe turing doesnt support gif's because of copyright issues with some pictures.  Not sure, but I think I heard that somewhere.

Very Very cool! I didn't know turing could do that, it wouldn't have been an animation THAT smooth without all those frames would it? Wow! that was amazing. +bits.  :lol:

very nice, add a loading bar to it, and it would be great for a in-game movie or a cutscene.
