Good image rotation program....

[kyensoftware]

Dose any1 no a good image rotation program?
I am using Beneton Movie GIF, but it only does 300 frames, so i cannot rotate properly, as it will go to 300 in the angle and then it will look choppy, and because it's a MMODM (Massively Multiplayer Online Death Match, and, I KNOW there is no networking in ge yet, but i am making it NOW so it will be first MMO GE game ever!)I dont want any glitches in it, because people who use it need to turn a c c u r a t e l y !

you can probably download a free demo of animation shop 3, you can make .gif .avi .cur and .some other type and rotate as many frames as you want!
you do not need 360 frames though,
just make 36 and if you are doing animpos = angle;
use animpos = angle * 10;
if you are using angle = animpos use angle = animpos *10;
if you are using animpos = direction(x, y, player.x, player.y);
use animpos = direction(x, y, player.x, player.y) / 10;

or you could just use somthing like angle = (animpos/nframes)*360;
ect.
animation shop 3 also has alot of effects!

If you only need 36, then ill stay with Beneton Movie GIF!!

okay, but remember to use the codes like I typed if you are doing stuff like that!

[Game A Gogo]

use 72 frames if you want double of the accuracy!

[Sgt. Sparky]

then it would be animpos * 5 instead of animpos * 10,
and animpos / 5 instead of animpos /10

you can also use something like animpos=angle/360*animpos, i don't know why some people hate this so much tough :\

if GE divides any number into 0 it will crash. So if your animpos is 0...

[Game A Gogo]

its not dividing by the animpos its dividing by 360
Believe me, it works great!

to fix the animpos error just make an actor variable called Animpos,
and for the draw actor of your actors use the

Code: Select all

 Animpos = animpos + 1;

im happy wit 36 frames,and i dont need extreme accuracy, i just cant have a big gap of 60 frames!!

[Game A Gogo]

to fix the animpos error just make an actor variable called Animpos,
and for the draw actor of your actors use the

Code: Select all

 Animpos = animpos + 1;

The error never occurs, why trying to resolute it?

it will never divide by 0 and have the closing error(I have had it before)
not close GE! xD
