How to loop image sequence in maya?

Hi 🙂 I wanna ask you guys something!

How can I loop image sequence in maya?

I found some solutions about the problem.

One of the solution was "image.file.frameExtension = frame % image sequnce length"

But it didn't work T_T 

 

My scene is from 101 to 216 and Image sequence is from 101 to 142

So I did edit expressions of the image sequence like below.

 

image.file.frameExtension=frame

 

if (frame>143)

image.file.frameExtension=frame%42;

 

In this way, frame of the image sequence became 0 in 143 frame of the scene

I thought It will be 101 in 143 frame  

 

Furthermore, I wanna know what % means. I can't understand its role.

Give me other solutions pleaseeeee T_T 

 

* Sorry for my poor English. I hope you understand

if (frame>143)

image.file.frameExtension=frame%42 + 101;

 

This way the frameExtension goes from 101 to 142.

file3.frameExtension=fmod(int(frame/2),30);

 

For a sequence that is 30 frames long starting at 0 and ending on 29
