Quoted from PoMC:You know what sucks and can't be changed?
The failure scenes showing the shitty looking Gauntlet collecting the stones. Those are many, many, many,.BMP files to animate the scenes and not a video for each one. I had terrific replacement ideas ready too. Such a bland animation.
I imagine they are using bmp sequences because of the various stone combinations possible from playing. It would be too many video files. This way makes it modular and lighter K weight. BMP files also support transparency.
Stones that have already been collected by Thanos and present in the gauntlet would most likely be the last frame of the sequence. Do you know how many frames/images are used for each stone animation? If you were to replace them, I imagine each sequence has to be the same amount of frames.
