Mamewah and image display

Pages: (1/1)

FoX:

Any chance of Mamewah ever being able to display animated gifs? I was trying to think of a good way to display charcter moves for fighter games without any luck. Just not enough room for all those characters and room. However, with an animated gif I could have an image either scroll or fade in/out with new moves when on a specific game and therefore display all the different moves.

I can think of quite a few other niceities this would add but I have no idea on the feasability of such a request.

Nor do I to be honest...

I will have a look at some point, but I must say it is far from the top of my priorities...

FoX:

No, definately not a big deal but it would certainly help with some real estate issues with the layouts.

Thanks again for all your hard work ;)

I think there are licensing issues Minwah would probably have to deal with in order to support them... Probably a little more work that he needs to, especially since animated PNGs ( = MNG) are just as easy to create and integrating them are easy as pie (and distributing another DLL with MAMEWAH):
