Animated Textures are currently flagged as deprecated, but have no direct workarounds for equivalent behaviors. The primary reason for deprecation, as I can tell, was that the ProxyTexture implemen...

GDExtension for Godot 4+ to load GIF files as AnimatedTexture and/or SpriteFrames. - BOTLANNER/godot-gif

I believe the AnimatedTexture resource is shared. Go to your instance, and on the Material, click on “Make Unique”

What I hope is that the AI will have a better understanding of Godot’s features.The following AI answer is a typical misconception.(Godot does not support the use of AnimatedTexture as a mouse cursor and this class may be abolished) But if I just ctrl+a, copy all the documents, and ask again, the answer will be much beter. (This is a way to learn a class quickly, but it needs to verify the AI’s answers.) So I wanted to have an AI trained specifically for Godot. But as mentioned in the reply, it takes money, the effect may not be as good as imagined, and the most important thing is our own level.These replies are wonderful! Over the years, I have definitely felt the progress of AI. Perhaps in the near future, we can also have better AI services!

Necroing here, but I just wanted to share that I have been able to make animated images work in `RichTextLabel`s in Godot 4.3 stable. You would use an `AnimatedTexture` and add this via the `add_image` method just as you would add any other image texture. You just have to animate manually. Short workflow as follows: * Import the `AnimatedTexture` (yes I know it’s deprecated, but it’s running) * Call `pause = true` on the texture (I don’t know if that is really necessary but it wasn’t animating for me by itself, so just disabling the automatic code here) * Get an array of “time indices”, I call it `timing` array with time thresholds when to jump to the next frame * Store a reference to the texture and a manager item for keeping track of frame, current delta and timings * In your `_process`, use the delta to go through the frames as needed **Known Problems:** * `speed_scale` is non-trivial to implement without frameskips **Code Snippets:** Preparing an animation var texture: AnimatedTexture = ImageTransformer.read(body) # or whatever you use to import a GIF or something texture.pause = true var timing: PackedFloat32Array = [0.0] for f in range(texture.frames): timing.push_back(timing[f] + texture.get_frame_duration(f)) var entry := { 'frame': 0, 'delta': 0.0, 'timing': timing.slice(1) } animations[key] = entry images[key] = texture Playing the animation func _process(delta: float) -> void: for key in animations: var animation: Dictionary = animations[key] var image: AnimatedTexture = images[key] animation.delta += delta var update := false while animation.delta > animation.timing[animation.frame]: update = true animation.frame += 1 if animation.frame == image.frames: animation.frame = 0 animation.delta -= animation.timing.back() if update: image.current_frame = animation.frame

Tried checking: Godot Engine documentation ### Texture2D Inherits: Texture< Resource< RefCounted< Object Inherited By: AnimatedTexture, AtlasTexture, CameraTexture, CanvasTexture, CompressedTexture2D, CurveTexture, CurveXYZTexture, GradientTexture1D, Gra... It just says “false” on them which is just not true cuz the original image is a png with alpha.

### Godot Version 4.3-5 ### Question I have an animated Ninepatchrect in my project to display dialogue (which, AnimatedTexture is now a deprecated class, which works, but do tell me if this is a bad idea) , and i can’t seem to find any way to make its child nodes transparency sensitive, becoming visible as the sprite comes in. Any ideas?
