Hmm... How can I make those? I don't believe .tga files support animation. So I would change the .shaders to use allies.gif and axis.gif instead of .tga files?

[PKM_676]

you'll keep your textures for any mohaa animation as .jpg or .tga; however (as you'll see in the .shader for a basic animation) you'll have multiple images to make the 'animation' (ie. flipbook)...

ie.
simple_flame
{
nopicmip
nomipmaps
spritegen parallel_upright
cull none
{
// animmap 10 textures/effects/aFlame_01.tga textures/effects/aFlame_02.tga textures/effects/aFlame_03.tga textures/effects/aFlame_04.tga textures/effects/aFlame_05.tga textures/effects/aFlame_06.tga textures/effects/aFlame_07.tga textures/effects/aFlame_08.tga textures/effects/aFlame_03.tga
blendfunc add
}
}
