# How create first animation

Tutorial create a first gif animation in game

### First Steps

First you need to have a gif downloaded from the internet you can download any one from this site <https://tenor.com/es-419/search/hola-gifs>

After you have downloaded it you have to place it inside the gifs folder, the folder is located in KatsuAnimation/gifs

<figure><img src="https://1088637233-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FJiRt0pCuxzAxsBicgwhi%2Fuploads%2F2VK3ZCUlUxnbjkKWfhPJ%2FCaptura%20de%20pantalla%202024-10-31%20193901.png?alt=media&amp;token=2a7e6f2a-45be-412c-a98d-7dc090b4888b" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Now let's use an in-game command, it is `/kta create <gif-name> <skip-frames> <size> <height>` I have a gif with name test.gif so I will use that as an example, the complete command would be `/kta create test.gif 0 30 0` if everything was correct it will give you a message that it was complete.

Texture pack is already created with the gif and will be available in the KatsuAnimation/resourcepack folder, and now to make it available for use the texturepack needs to be compiled in a .zip format and to compile it use the command `/kta compile`, once you have done this it will leave the texture pack as a .zip file inside the plugin folder in the path KatsuAnimations/resourcepack.zip

### Self Hosting Enabled

Now if you want the texturepack to apply the changes you have made use the command `/kta apply <player-name>` to reload the texturepack, **it only works with selft hosting enabled.**

### No Self Hosting

For this it is necessary to use an external host I will leave you some that you could use:

{% embed url="<https://mc-packs.net/>" %}

{% embed url="<https://www.dropbox.com/install>" %}

Now in these hosts it is necessary to upload the texture pack that is in the KatsuAnimations/resourcepack.zip folder, after you have done it you need to update the texture pack link that is in the config and that would be it.
