    Hey guys,

    I know I have posted something similar in another thread but I would like to formally put in my request for:

    -- Better .GIF Animation support.

    -- An extra button that is linked to a library where GIF animations could be stored with preview images.

    I know you can add them with the "Markers" tool but it is just too time consuming and for some reason some of the GIF animations don't work correctly. But if this issue was solved and a library of GIF animations was provided, I could use a lot of my old Baldurs Gate GIF animations for ongoing spell effects and animated objects.

    Let me know what you think.

    I was just commenting on your post about the spell templates and I was pretty much asking for the same thing. I even mentioned that I should probably come here and suggest it as a feature. I see you already had it in hand, awesome.

    Whatever the case I agree I'd love greater animation support.

    like minds and all that.

    A better managed "art library" tool is in the works. We've been doing work with integrating a native, headless chromium system so we can use standard web-tech to render previews of content and what not.

    There's a lot to do to make this feature a reality but it's definitely on the roadmap.
