Description

Extracting the images is currently possible with openrct2 itself. I think it would fit the scope of objexport to support this as well.

Something like
objexport <directory_or_dat_file> <output_dir> -images

Bonus points if it is able to generate a .gif for animations.

Research direction

Start by locating the objexport command entry point and how it currently reads a directory or .dat file. Define completion around exporting the contained images to the requested output directory; animated .gif generation is explicitly only a bonus, so its scope should be confirmed before implementation.
