Making an GIF in ImageLabel (ScreenGui) | Trying to rewrite some random code

[XtsoostX]

So yeah, my goal is to upload an gif to play in an imagelabel. Like an video.
Of course, my poor scripting skills came to play and i tried to “switch” it over from an Decal / texture to an imagelabel (i failed of course)

If you need more explanation feel free to ask

Here is the code:

local rows = 23
local columns = 5

local Frames = rows*columns
local currentFrame = 1

local currentRow,CurrentColumn = 0,0

local linear = false

local fps = 30
local full60fps = false

local size = script.Parent.Size

local function api()
	local x = columns*size.Y.Scale
	local y = rows*size.X.Scale

	script.Parent.ImageRectOffset.X = x
	script.Parent.ImageRectOffset.Y = y
end

api()

while true do
	if not full60fps then wait(1/fps) else game:GetService("RunService").Stepped:Wait() end
	if linear then
		script.Parent.ImageRectOffset.Y = script.Parent.ImageRectOffset.Y + size.X
		if script.Parent.ImageRectOffset.Y > size then
			script.Parent.ImageRectOffset.Y = 0
		end
	else
		CurrentColumn = CurrentColumn + 1
		if CurrentColumn > columns then
			CurrentColumn = 1
			currentRow = currentRow + 1
		end
		if currentFrame > Frames then
			currentRow,CurrentColumn,currentFrame = 1,1,1
		end
		script.Parent.ImageRectOffset.X = size.X*(CurrentColumn-1)
		script.Parent.ImageRectOffset.Y = size.Y*(currentRow-1)
		currentFrame = currentFrame+1
	end
end

Please note that i don’t force you neither do i request from you to fix this script, i only want to know how i can make it be functional

Scripts used in this post are NOT by me, original post: Gifs in Roblox with only 1 image!

I resulted in alot of errors like:

 X cannot be assigned to 
 or
 Y cannot be assigned to

[GibusWielder (Kwick)]

It’s self explanatory. X and Y cannot be assigned to, you have to make a new Vector2 (might be a UDim, and override the entire ImageRectOffset, like so:

script.Parent.ImageRectOffset = Vector2.new(x, y)

ah okay, im still learning so you know i ain’t the best

I did also make a GUI version for image labels

How to load a Sprite (Animated Gif) in a roblox Gui (A sequel to "Gifs in roblox with only 1 image")

This is an updated version of my Previous Thread, in which I described how to make a gif using textures and texture offsets, this is both a tutorial and a resource, much like the previous post, so I will be making the post here, like the previous post Additional notes: This is an example resource showing you how to do this, not necessarily how you should do it. If you have a better way to load or animate Spritesheets, do it, this was not built for performance. Hello, recently people have bee…

for additional help
