Keyframing textures

[Hiraghm]

Is it possible to change the image map texture of an object in an animation? I don't mean animate it, I mean replace it with a different image at a specific keyframe?

Use the texture- opacity- envelopes.

Hiraghm,

It's easy... remember, if you are using an image sequence and are missing a frame number, LW holds the previous image until the next valid sequence number matches a frame.

Test it out. Rename 2 different pictures test001.jpg and test 017.jpg

bring a flat poly into Layout, use Image Editor to load test001.jpg.
As soon as you do, go down to Image Type and select sequence.
In Surface Editor, assign the sequence to your poly as a color texture.
Slide the timeline, you'll see your image flip on frame 17
