If they would need to be 32x32 how would animated default textures work?
So no, they don't need to be 32x32.
For Blockbench to recognize something as animated the project texture resolution has to have the same ratio as one frame of the animated texture.
For ingame the mcmeta file just has to specify width and height of the frame (unless it's square frames, then nothing needs to be specified)

thanks, yeah I was just unsure of what blockbench itself could read, what does the project resolution ratio being the same as a frame mean? That's just about like, if it's 32 then 2 frames is 32x64?

if one frame of your animation is square (16x16, 32x32 etc.), then that would be a 1:1 ratio
if one frame of your animation is, for example, 8x16 that would be a 1:2 ratio
and so on
and the ratio of your project resolution needs to be the same as the ratio of one of your animated texture frames
(easiest way to do that is just to set the project resolution to the size of one frame)

thanks yeah I understand how ratios work I just don't really know what u mean by project resolution in the sense that like the pixel density or whatever should just be built in to the animated texture right? Like once it's imported and placed onto a surface then that should just already set it or whatever
sorry for the confusion I'm sure I'm being dumb it's just I'm unfamiliar
like
uhhh
it's that the UV texture map file or whatever needs to be the same size as a frame of the animated texture file right?
but like
is that not kind automatic?

Project resolution = the texture size you set in File > Project
dusk marten
just an example (anvil.png is usually not an animated texture, I just scaled it up to 16x64 to fake a 4 frame animated texture with a 16x16)
unkempt valve
yes
ok ty
sorry about that
ok I'm good to go now
ig it's worth asking but I assume that means u can only have one frame size for all animated textures in one project?
dusk marten
one frame ratio in Blockbench, yes (so you could have animated textures with 16x16 and 32x32 as frame size for example just fine)
ingame they can be different frame ratios
also, Blockbench is a bit limited in regards to what it can do with animated textures, so if you need stuff like interpolation or frames with different durations you need to manually edit the pack.mcmeta Blockbench spits out
