Kamakaze · #1 02-22-2009, 05:42 PM

i am having trouble with GANIing, have never done it in my life, and i am wondering if there is someone or something out there that can help me on this... because without this GANI skill my friend and i are getting nowhere in our mining system... so if someone could explain/teach me how that would be excellent

thanx

Go to your Graal folder and open up graalshop.exe.

Play around with it and if you have any questions you can't answer on your own, post again.

Graal animation is really easy to learn but gets boring because you have to do all 4 directions of the character which is a pain sometimes.

Just wanted to ask here, rather than start a new thread. I am trying to add a sprite definition and it keeps coming up blank. Is there a specific folder that the image has to be in, I have it in levels\images\ and still sprite defs appear blank...

Delete your FILENAMECACHE.txt and make sure your image is 8-bit, then restart GraalShop.

Thanks, so I have to add my images to levels\images\ and delete filenamecache everytime I want to add new sprite sets?

What I do is have a 'working' folder on my desktop, and I save the .gani there. Then, I put all the images I need for the gani into the 'working' folder. This works because GraalShop also checks the folder that the .gani file is in for images.

Sweet, I will try that.
