My animation is going up at a 45 degree angle HELP!

Postby Blackop » Sun Mar 30, 2008 9:12 pm

When I place the animation in game editor it goes up at a 45 degree angle (one of the pictures does) look for your self.

Well it dosent do it on this page BUT in game-editor it acts up.

I think you should use strip animation instead of GIF's

no, it's something like that:
energyBar.png


this is an animation of an energy bar.
all the pics are in one strip
that's why it called strip animation.

GE will divide the picture and animate it so that it looks like a moving gif.

That's an easy way to do it, and I have also used GIF animator, but a really easy way is just make seperate PNG files and save them as, ex:
chewiewalkright1
chewiewalkright2
chewiewalkright3
so on so forth, just save the frames as seperate images and GE will put them together for you. :D

The down side of doing it like that is that you end up with half a million images in the data folder.
Graphics Gale is a pretty useful animation software, with the free version you can convert multiple files into a stip animation (though I have had issues with it not keeping transparency). It also has some useful tools for drawing animations.
