SpriteAnim lib. Have you even wanted to make 2D animations in MTA with sprite sheets? Here is a library to help you out.

Here is a video to show you a few examples: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuAXLZcjLv4

This resource is an example of how to use it. Want to use the lib in your own script? Just copy the c_SpriteAnim.lua file to your resource and add it to meta.xml.

How to use the lib:
To create your own animation you need to call SpriteAnim: new() function. Here are its parameters:
SpriteAnim: new( filename, x, y, width, height, uCount, vCount, fps )

* filename: path to the sprite sheet
* x, y: X and Y position of the animation on the screen
* width, height: exactly what it says (single sprite size is best)
* uCount, vCount: number of frames in a row and column (respectively)
* (optional) fps: frames per second (speed of the animation itself)

Additional tool:
