In fact the torch in Jules demo is an armature animation (whith a bone), but it could have been done with a texture animation either.

^
I'm gonna re-write that tutorial as i have a way better method now (everything automated with a blender script)

It can be used for effects like explosions, spells, UI or even animated 2d characters
for example, i'm using this spritesheet (here sized down) in my platformer game project :

Yeah.. i guess.. still images .. are not the best way to show an animated sprite -.-

I will work on the tutorial and post it today, but first i need to sleep a bit, see you later

You can animate the texture UV offset.

It could be that I haven't somehow actually rendered the video to a texture or something (Blender is starting to really annoy me) and I can't find the right help online.
Had anyone done this with Maratis yet? Or know how? It just shows up as BLACK.
Maratis doesn't support rendering videos to textures, only texture animation like a flipbook.
Does it support image sequences? Like in your example of the smoke? How would you get that smoke into maratis since maratis only supports bone/rig animation and not particle animations?

I was going to use UV Texture Animation.

I rendered my smoke out as png's and took every other png and put them in a new transparent image. I added the back background so you could see the smoke on the forums. Make your a transparent image like a 2d cutout.

There is a couple of ways to do this and also a plugin called AnimALL. I tried a couple of times and wasn't able to get maratis to animate my uv's not sure what I was doing wrong. But look in the forum/wiki there should be a couple of tutorials.

The torch in ...

is a UV Animated Texture.
