This problem has not been fixed yet and the best luck you have is taking every frame and importing it yourself! Sorry but unless Carnie university does something with wick, nothing new will happen

Btw WELCOME!

Maybe try ezgif.com, it has a tool to turn GIFs into a bunch of PNGs, then import them all, and create a clip out of the GIF… Maybe I could build an automation tool for that… :face_with_monocle:

I don’t think your problem can be fixed! The wick people haven’t made something new in like YEARS. It’s better using a fork like @noobfield wick wrapper. Or @StickmanRed’s fork on GitHub.

For the love of god, did you even read the message right above you?
