Change animation speed

[orlanrod]

How would i initialize each animation to its own speed? Right now using the "SPRITE jason_sprite "jason.png" 2 3 -1 10" applies to all animations.

Thanks

You need to set general speed in rescomp.res as zero, and use setAnimation / setFrame functions on SpriteEngine to animate the sprite on your own.

rescomp is definitely not flexible enough when it comes to the SPRITE resource... you can modify generated structures afterward but that is dangerous as rescomp may overwrite them as soon you modify the .res file.
As suggested nolddor, the best is to let the "timer" parameter set to -1 in the SPRITE resource definition then handle it on your own.
In future i really want to have a real and good Sprite animation builder tool which will let you to tune the different parameters in depth...

Is there any difference between setting speed to -1 or zero?

[Stef]

Actually i was wrong and you were correct :p
time parameter has to be set to 0 to avoid auto animation, -1 is not a valid value :p

Ah okay. Yeah, now i got it working.

Oh, you made SGDK? Cool. Pressure is on to make a cool game. 8D xD

Haha, definitely you don't need to pressure yourself, it's already a pleasure to see new people using it =)
