Ok, I just did a new one: I am not so sure about the head movement though, have to tinker with it more.

Haha, thanks. Yeah the art still needs work, this is more or less the first draft. I just wanted to have something to start with the animation process. This might be easier to discern when NOT against a while background but thanks for the feedback, I will try to change somethings in it.

Here is mu suggestion: When assigning the bones, it would be very helpful if the bones take the name of the first sprite they are assigned to. Right now I have to manually name each bone which is a bit cumbersome. Also, I am sure you have been asked before, but is there any chance we get direct export to Game Maker?

So I have been using the Spriter for about a month now, and I have done some basic animation for jumping, running and walking using pre-made art. Today I made my first animation for the game I am working on: This took me much more than I anticipated...! The front legs were easy, but getting the back legs really messed me up. I think it took around 3 hours :eek: . Of course I am a total noob so...It still requires some tweaking but the general animation is ok I think. You will be hearing from me a lot more in the upcoming days and weeks.

Hey, how are handling the curves here?

Awesome, thanks! The reason I pressed Z was I thought that is how you select every bone and sprite based on one of the tutorial videos. In that one Mike used that copy the whole thing to another frame.

I press the main parent bone, press Z to select everything and try to set the alpha to 50%, as soon as I let go of the button the alpha level jumps to 100% although the reduction in alpha has been implemented, so now 50% is the newest 100%! I cant go back to fully opaque sprite anymore :oops:

Is there any way to change a specific child bone after I have assigned a sprite to it? Right now when I try to move to re-size the bone it changes the sprite it is assigned to.
