I am thinking of the feature in "Easy Particle" which allows to capture several screenshots and generates one Image out of it which can be used as an animated sprite. Particular i want to design smoke model, and i´ve figured out that a sprite might be the best solution (though any other ideas that might be better are appreciated ) Does anyone has a hint how to make such model or which program would be handy?

Just to note, 3DGS doesn't use a GIF style animation, but instead tiled next to each other. Adding a +n (n being # of frames) before the extension of the filename tells 3DGS that it's animated and not a wide sprite xXxGuitar511 - Programmer
