Fluffy Cupcake Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Thought I'd post what I gathered on this so far, so information will not be lost. First things first. .IFL files are a sequence of images played to make a texture look animated. Let me start by off showing what a .ifl file looks like in notepad. The one below is taken from the first few lines of Game DataSandy IslandTexturesWater AnimWater Anim.ifl ; water anim water01.tga 3 water02.tga 3 water03.tga 3 Key points to note: ";" at the start of a line is like a comment in programming. (from what I gathered) The root directory is the folder in which the .ifl is in. Sub-directories are supported. The rate is by frames, not seconds. In LR2 language, the extension .mip goes by the name .tga. Decimals are ignored. Eg. 0.50 equivalates to 50 . So, a line basically contains two things if not a comment line. The texture name, and speed, only one of each per line. Basically, how it works is that you put the name (and sub-folders if used) of the texture, put a space (" "), and then enter the speed. 30 is equivalent to 1 second (1,000 miliseconds). Aaaand that's all there is to it! Seaborgium and le717 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mumboking Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 From little testing, I gathered that the speed 24 is 1 second (1,000 miliseconds) long. I have yet to confirm 24 is the exact speed, though that is a common FPS speed.I'm assuming it would be 30, as that's what games usually run at. 24 is mostly used for videos.

I have good timing with my watch timer (and the watch is not old). I tried it at 30, and I got exactly 00:01:00 on the watch. xP Editing OP to say 30, thanks.
