Hi all,

I've tried to post on the forums but they seem to have been out of order
for a while.

So here goes.

We're in the process of adding an animated 'Currently loading, please wait'
icon to our loading screen, Basically, I thought about using ~30 images and
showing them one by frame, so that it looks animated.

I know there are ways to use AVIs or GIFs to achieve this, but due to the
lack of good transparency support, I chose to use PNGs that have
transparency.

I see two ways to achieve this:
1) ~30 images on the same PNG file, and use that file as a texture on a
quad, and move the texture coordinate on the appropriate location each frame
2) ~30 images, each in their on PNG file, and change the texture on the
quad, once per frame.

I was wondering what was the generally proffered method, and if there was
other alternatives.

Thanks!
