Not possible using the default functions, but this can be worked around using dx functions. See: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/DxDrawGifImage

It surprises me that this hasn't been added as a native function yet... It sure would allow for some neat menus or whatnot.

Maybe they'll add .gif image support for their own GUI in MTA 2.0.

Doesn't castillo's script work with .gif images?

Because when I split one animated gif using some online tool, it outputs each image as .gif extension.

And the script says: Bad usage @dxDrawGifImage [Can't load file]

If you try it with png images it works perfectly

[Castillo]

No, it uses sprites ( separate image files ).

I think you did not understand me properly.

I split one animated gif into many separated .gif images (static images) by using this http://gifmaker.me/exploder/

It generates separated image files

tmp-0.gif

tmp-1.gif

tmp-2.gif

tmp-3.gif

tmp-4.gif

tmp-5.gif

tmp-6.gif

Show me the dxDrawGifImage script you're using.

GIF files cannot be loaded into MTA. You have to convert them to PNG or JPEG or whatever else works.
