Animation problems

[Kurtz1515]

I was trying to make an adventure game with Naruto and I got some problems with the animations. Such as moon walking, and i can't make the gravity real good. I posted the file and the animations, can someone please look over it and help me out?

[Kalladdolf]

would it be ok for you to post a .zip file please?
and welcome to the GE forums

[Kurtz1515]

how do you do a .zip file? I'm knew to everything about GE

[Thanx]

In windows, in when you are viewing the folder then right click on the folder to zip, and then right click the folder to zip, in the popup menu, go over the send to option, and there appears a few more options, choose the zipped folder from that, then windows will create the zipped folder for you, the .zip file, and then post that for us!
Yeah, welcome!

I hope i did and right...
oh and thank you all for welcoming me !

[Kalladdolf]

all right, there seems to be a problem with the files.
how you upload a zip folder:
First, you have the .ged file, which is your game as a Game Editor file with all the script and settings.
But it can't go along without the necessary data, so when you save a game file, it automatically creates a "data" folder right beside your .ged file, storing all the neccessary files for your game (such as used pictures, sounds etc; the .ged file cannot be opened without those files). Keep those elements always together, never seperate them.
Place them both into the same .zip folder and upload it.
Have one more try and good luck

Well i hope i did it this time! Sorry about the other information, i downloaded a couple of demos and never relized i saved under those files...

[Kalladdolf]

Congratualtions. You uploaded them correctly this time
I'll give you some advice tomorrow (if the other support-happy forum members don't beat me to it).
Bye and good night (it's almost midnight over here).

[Kurtz1515]

So has anyone found the problems that I made?

[BlarghNRawr]

you dont need to put the entire data folder, just the stuf from your game


and those running sprites should be ONE picture, that could be a problem

this is the moonwalk code viewtopic.php?f=2&t=6193
and as for gravity, under a draw actor event make a script that sayes

Code: Select all

yvelocity = yvelocity + .5;

[Kurtz1515]

ok thanx, I'm going to try that now!

[BlarghNRawr]

make sure you put a physical response on the ground for the gravity to work

[Kurtz1515]

Well, I'm back to messing around with this game after i gave up, but I'm stick one more time.
This is different though, I'm trying to make it so that when the health bar reaches "0" Naruto dies.
I'm using DST's health example...and it works really well, but naruto just won't die when health reaches "0".
Anyone know a code or something that can fix this please?

OH, and thanx to everyone for the help and some other stuff !

[BlarghNRawr]

dst's health bar demo

id try following his directions again more closely

[Kurtz1515]

Ok, i got naruto to die when hp reaches "0"...but i have 4 more problems...
Questions:

1.lets say i have 40hp,(my max is 50) then i get a health item that heals hp by 20, my end results is have 60/50 hp, how can i fixe that?
2.Another problem with animation, everything works fine, its just i don't know exactlly how to make a good jump animation that would flow great with the other animations, got any ideas?
3.I'm only 15 and i know nothing of codes/global codes/ integers/ variables/ Anything else really. I have no money to get some books about this stuff, so i really need help with A.I.
4.I tried a jumping thing that i found on these forums,where it reduces how much you can jump, but as long as i touch the floor once then i can just jump one more time even if im falling. Any idea?
Im going to put up the NEW Naruto's adventure.
