2D Movie Object for GUI?

Unity Engine
1

Hi. I know you can use GUITexture to create buttons, 2D backgrounds, etc, but is there a way to create a 2D movie and not have it in 3D space using a movie texture?

Yes, apply your movie texture as a texture being drawn in a label and you’re set.

Thanks HiggyB. Can you please clarify what you mean by “label”? I’m a bit new to Unity.

A label is a construct within the Unity GUI system that allows one to display text or a texture. It’s useful for a number of things such as displaying game score or a picture of a weapon you’re wielding. One of the essential building blocks you’ll be using quite often to display your GUI.
