Summary

Hi guys, I need your help! I use animations for an abs that includes many different swords. The swords are 30 and each sword has 4 animations, one for each direction (down, left, right, up). This means 120 different animations!

From this madness comes my request:


There is way to change the source file (image) of an animation in game?


In this way I could keep only 4 animations and where necessary change the source file according to the equipped sword.


I don't know if this requires a plugin or simply a call script, but I hope in your help!


Thank you :3
