Interesting tutorial, some questions.
Basically you are changing the entire object with this?  Every 0.4 times the entire object changes, not just that face?  I would think its inefficient, but it definitely works.  From the looks of the tutorial thats how you did it.

I will put this in the tutorials section once I get my question answered. Thanks.

The entire object is required to change because the .ANIMATED file does not support image formats, only .b3d and .csv object files.

So that means you can't make the LCD signs as clear as they can be (by that I mean making the signs BIG!)?

As of right now there is no way to animate just a single portion of the entire car?

All my work will be sent down the drain like this...
Still, it's the best thing that I have experienced this year!!!  :D

You can just animate only a portion of the car if you turn the "portion" into an object.
