Merging 2 .act&.spr file into 1


Question

Posted

Is it possible to merge sprites? Like one sprite has animation and the other does not.

I tried to do it using Act Editor, and it's merged in the simulator, here's the video:

But when I tried it in-game, it doesn't work.. I'm really a newbie on this matter, so any help would be much appreciated as long as I can learn from it.

You will have to combine the images manually using a program like photoshop, and remake the sprite. Because only the image on the first layer shows up for headgear sprites.

A bit of a random reply, but for future reference, you can simply use Scripts > Merge layers (new sprites). That will create a single layer for all your frames.

Hi! Act Editor have been a huge help in my spriting as I'm completely new to making these stuff.

I tried using the merge layer script as well as this script  (which is from you too) I found in forums but my headgear keeps getting a line around it. Can you help me?

Context: I'm trying to merge a fairy ears headgear into a blinking eyes headgear. I notice the lining only happens when I merge it.

Hmm, I'm not entirely sure. My first guess would be the lack of a 1-pixel border around the image. But perhaps there's something else going on with the image itself (maybe it's a transparency image?), but I'd need to have a look at the act/spr files first.

Hi All,

 

Can you teach me how to merge 2 sprite into 1 just like you did?

I tried to look everywhere on act editor V1.2.8. but couldn't find any merging tool.

thanks for your help,

Cheers
