It sorta works, although it doesn't look hugely fluid. I think his left leg needs to move back more.

Apart from that gap the frames link together really well.

[Ben]

the gif editor i used was sort of crappy. the colours look off and i can see pixel where I know there arent any. wierd. Ill try and fix the left leg. (actually, It may already be fixed...Ive added new feet to all of the poses

[Ben]

yarr... this be the sheet

cough

this is the master sheet of naked template sprite poses for the platformer series (one day to be used in the MMO project...but for now, Will grace a million mini-games as I learn the functions of game maker)

Ive tested them out....when arranged properly, and have the boundaries and origins set properly (takes a bit of work) they move quite nicely.

now I can finally arrange some resources

[Moosetroop11]

Coool.


The extra 'o' is for "oh yeahhh."

[Ben]

a sheet made from all of the default layers for the side view sprites.

Layers include:

Hair
Face
Body
clothes
weapon

other layers intended for use, but not shown:

Was epic when you first showed me, it's epic now @.@

[Abaddon]

That's some truly awesome stuff!
Keep up the good work.

[Moosetroop11]

Woah. You've almost got enough for a generator already.

[Ben]

ive made some changes to the base template...i destroyed the original colours, and replaced them with something with a bit more depth and sweetness...i changed how im colouring them a bit, into a bit more of a standard pallette, so i can make chips and stuff to match without worring about having to alter the sprites to match. All of the things ive made for this template so far are now useless, but at least i know i wont have to go back.

I wont be making a female template, as the boobs can be added in during the item creation.

I am sick of making sprites for now. I may spit out a face or two for these guys, but i think Im going to focus more on making tiles for the project. Ill make some and post them in the next few days. there is a signboard and a mushroom i spit out on the sheet here, just to see how they look in comparison.

I AM BLATHERING.

This thread's starting to remind me how awesome 2D platformers are.

I forget, are you using gamemaker or have you moved on already? How're you coming along in that department?

[Dominicy]

He's still using Gamemaker, as far as I know.  I could be wrong.

[Moosetroop11]

In that case, my question is: How're you geting along with gamemaker?

[Ben]

Gamemaker is tough to learn. Not becase of the complexity, but because i keep getting distracted from the tutorials, but i AM learning things....even if it is slowly.

What id really like, is to collaboarate with somebody who has some decent GM know how

[Dominicy]

If you find someone tell me, eh?  I tried using Game Maker, the tutorials weren't much help because with Game Maker, in a way, it has to be taught.
