Help with walking animation

I created this sprite from scratch but, I can't seem to get him to walk properly and look good.



Any help is greatly appreciated.

you have you make 3 rows of 4 sprite base.

A A A

B B B

C C C

D D D

A= front side

B= one side

C = Back side

D = the other side

Then you make the first (top left,) make it look like its walking with the left foot. Middle A is how you have him now, and left A shows him walking with right foot out

do it with all 4 sides, and should work.

example:

but make sure to add a back side unlike this one... its incomplete

I was actually asking specifically about the animation itself, not the format. I also, dont use VX. Its not so good.

ahh like blinking? and dieing? and waving?

Like walking....?

I was telling you how to do the walking animation in the previous post. I wasn't just telling you the format. You have to draw him with his left foot sticking out and his right foot sticking out, and do it with views of all 4 sides of the body. thus that is why the format is 3x4.

If that isn't the case, I don't know what your trying to say. You do have drawings of him from both sides and the back right? I am not sure how XP works, but I am assuming that sprites work the same as xp.

Creating a walking animation isn't as simple as drawing him with his feet sticking out. I was asking for help on the animation.

As it says in the thread title. The difference between VX and XP is that XP has four rows.

Ah ok! Sorry for wasting your time. :) and good luck

this should help! walk cycles are fun!

if you give it a try, and post your progress in the resource wip thread, we can give you feedback on how to improve. you won't get anywhere if you don;'t try. ^_^

eh. this difference is irrelevent. the extra XP column has the "idle" stance repeated twice. it wouldn't affect your animation
