Animations is not smooth and scaling doesn't work

08/10/2010, 14:47
I purchased Visionaire and it seems like a nice program (I do like it), but then my walk animation is not smooth:

<switch to full screen and look at the legs>

My character sprites are 512x512 (15 frames for walk left animation), is there anything I can do before scaling them down to 256x256 to make it smoother? (but the frame rate is high 60 fps and the other animation like standing is very smooth I don't understand).

And, I try the Scaling function in the Build window, it doesn't work!

P.s The walk animation does look smooth in the editor.

Hi Aragon,
well, in my bloody eyes this looks pretty smooth. What do you mean exactly? In general: Maybe your memory is full, the graficcard does not have the current drivers or you have some real big programs running on your computer (filesharing, google chrome with a lot of tabs opened,...).

And please post your system data (like memory, operating system, graficcard,...)

You open this video:

And take a closer look at his legs and feet when he's walking you'll know what I mean.

The walk left and right animations are jerky (when you look at the legs), they looks nice in the editor but when I run game (both from the save + run, or from a compiled exe) they're jerky again.

The animation speed rate (Pause ms) is 35 (when it's 25 the walk animations are smooth but it's too fast)

I'm gonna try to make a 20 fps walk animation and see how's it going .. (which is weird cos it costs more RAM but I have a feeling it's gonna work)

20 FPS walk animations and it's smoother now! I'm happy ^^ Visionaire's a great tool, it's so easy to use, thanks for making such a cool program!
