Can hyper pad add gif and video support for cutsenes
-
@Bryce678 Just frames and sprite sheets. If there's a specific gif you need you can import into an image editing app then export the frames. Videos there's free automated apps.
It seems convoluted but the engine needs serialized control over the frames and compression prevents that. -
No. Generally these are not optimized for games. So they will take up a lot of memory and cause performance issues.
Typically cut scene are done by creating gameplay that is controlled by preprogrammed events. So instead of a joystick controlling the characters, you would make it on a series of timer based events.

@Murtaza what if I want to add a pre rendered cutscene
-
Realistically the demand isn't that high for this, and it's something that can be easily abused with the hub.
So unlikely for us to add it any time soon. If something else in the future relies on this, or this gets added as a byproduct that sure. But it's not something that is currently on our roadmap.
