I believ you have named them wrong, the files are called @"CB00001", you have @"CB0001". Add a zero and see if it works

Yeah I just figured it out haha thanks

Only reason I knew that one was I had the exact same problem and it took me a good 15 mins to spot the missing 0 after having tried some pretty out there newbie fixes :)

The animation lags though it is really slow
