Import Animated Textures/UV's into Unity

Hi gang, I am looking for a way to be able to import animated textures/UV's from Cinema 4D into Unity.

I am aware I could animate textures with scripts wit$$anonymous$$n Unity, however facial animation is a key part of t$$anonymous$$s project and I'd like to be able to do it in an animation specific program, tied to the rest of the animation clip. The technique I want is somet$$anonymous$$ng similar to Animal Crossing, a texture sprite sheet of separate poses that are swapped out.

a w$$anonymous$$le ago I read of someone who did somet$$anonymous$$ng similar using joint scale animation as a workaround (unfortunetly I cannot find source). Is there some kind of script where I could have unity interpret somet$$anonymous$$ng imported as the driver of UV animation inside of Unity?

Btw I am an artist aka a hack fraud and use Playmaker, minimal coding knowledge. Anyway I've scoured Unity answers and searched endlessly on google, perhaps I do not know the specific term for what I am looking for, but I cannot find answers.

Attached below is an example from Animal Crossing, showing the way I want to animate textures.

I would greatly appreciate any help.

• Thanks.
