First of all: hello everybody!  ;)

I made an animated background with 3 frames (tv turning off).
AGS loops it endlessly but i want it to run only once.
After the third frame was shown the first should reappear and stay for the rest of the scene...

is that possible? and: how? thanks for every help...

Why don't you just draw the room normally and then insert the tv ( into the room  ;) ) as object and animate that.

This way is gonna be a lot easier...

Welcome to the forums btw...

Oh, of course! I didn't thought about that!  ::)

Ok, i'll do that, many thx.  ;)

You should really only animate the room in the event that several objects are animating (perhaps constantly, I don't know if you can stop the background from animating).  If you animate the room every time you only want one or two things to animate then your game's file size is going to be huge.

yah, room animating is more for waterfalls, winds blowing, waves washing on shore, etc.
