Trying to figure out how to switch a texture at certain keys, or Keyframe a file texture on a shader at one key and then change the file texture to something else on a later frame, on the same polygon face.  Like this…

How to switch or change these two images at different textures at different frames.

Click animation. Here I just keyframed and switched two poly planes.  But I want to swap out the textures by keyframing them instead.

Why not just using an image sequence?

Thanks for responding, guys. :)

The texture pans. No need to use a sequence. I think like UDK:  Pan and switch the texture out.  I just discovered Maya’s Conditional Node. I think that will be my best option.
