Battle Summon

Hello Everyone,

I'm back for more questions.

This time I'm asking about battle summons, I've created battlers, unique characters, etc. but now something came to my mind.

What about summoning creatures, for example I created a class named summoner, or necromancer, and they have skills like summoning

creatures (its a skill) what I have in mind is like the golden sun type of summon, the creature jump in the screen, do an attack and disappear again

I do have a battler sprite of an animal, the scratch animation I have , but for no reason I can't use the animal, I did upload it into my database (animations) for the purpose you see the creature on screen

as I stated above I can't use the battler sprite as summon, do someone know what I have to do to make it work ?

Sincerely,

HoneyKo

Your post is a little ambiguous, but I'm guessing your problem is that you uploaded the animal picture as a battler sprite rather than an animation.  Upload it in the animation format (and be sure to use appropriate width/height), then make an animation that shows the summon and the scratch, not just the scratch.

Well I uploaded the animal into the animation folder.

But I can't upload the animal, when I press the animal in the database (for creating animations) then It doesn't appear where the animations are supposed to be.

Can you show us a screenshot of the animation tab?


Also, animations are made manually. It's not as easy as put an animation sheet on the folder and boom, you now have a new animation.


You would need to make a new animation on the animation tab, and make it use the animation sheet that you have, then from there, build up the animation

Yeah, please show us your Animations tab where the summon animation is, and also the file you used for your creative's animation cels.

Sorry for the slow reply, I was a bit busy.

Anyways, the first is a image I created in paint.

The second is the attack .

And the third is in the animation tab, I want to put the cat in. flash the screen and show the attack.

The summon isn't supposed to stay on the field, its the same as a attack.

Earlier I tried something, I took a image of a rat (preset in game) and when I uploaded that picture then it suddenly got uploaded. but the cat I created didn't

Also I'm still learning, and I really like the program.

Because the cat isn't formatted in the right resolution... See the other animation sheets and see how they are formatted...

May I ask what the right resolution is ?

As I said, look at how the other images are formatted. You can also look at the help file, it's helpful.
